Here’s the thing. My father has three different ways to start a parental sermon about a whole bunch of I don’t want to hear it.
1. When I was your age: always about how he was doing way more than I am when he was in high school. Let him tell it, he put the principal in detention.
2. When I was in the army: always came whenever I was tired. It didn’t matter what I was tired from. If I showed any signs of exhaustion, he would hit me with how when he was in the army he wasn’t allowed to be tired, and that if he even yawned they made him drop down and give them a thousand push-ups.
3. When I was a cop: always came whenever he was either defending cops or insulting teenagers.
