Awkward Family Story: No Easy Listening

July 10th, 2009

My friends and I were going to go to a concert one weekend, but the night before my Dad insisted that I spend the night at his house so I could attend my younger sister’s third birthday party. Of course, my friends had to come with me.When he was driving us back to his house, he pulled out a CD and said he heard it was the hip music. It was Fergie. As the song “Fergalicious” played, we all sat in awkward silence.

As if that wasn’t awkward enough, when we got back to his house he read that there was a parental advisory on the album, and apologized to my friends if it was offensive. Not offensive, just the most awkward car ride I’ve ever experienced.

    it might be awkward for someone who’s 16 and insecure, but if it was my dad, i would be falling out of the car laughing

    I like this story… not too awkward tho.

    this story is not awkward at all. I think the most awkward thing about it is that someone acually took the time to write and post it on here. The song could atleast have been my humps, and when you got to his house he could have started lecturing your friends on the changes that there bodies are going through

      yes—most awkward that it was posted
      really can we keep it to jsut photos?

      it was just a dad being a dad—not an awkward story

    it’s a parent’s job to embarrass their teens.. lol… when you get older you’ll appreciate his efforts ;-)
    personally, I cant wait to embarrass the heck out of my kids.. hehehehe. They are still little enough right now for me to be “cool”
