Things your close ones has said that surprised/shocked you.

Try these on for size. All are from my Dad, when I was around 9-12 years old.

We were leveling a big pile of dirt with shovels and he said "Digging is just like f*ing: get it down there and move it."

"I shouldn't have f*d your mother last night. She gets sassy when I f* her."

Me: "Dad, why don't you like me?"
Him: "I do like you, just not as much as I like your brother."

Can't say the last one surprised me much, actually, now that I think about it. What a piece of work he was.

My Uncle:
"I can't say who, but I've been with a mother and daughter at the same time. "(I'm 99% sure it has to be my aunt and his adult stepdaughter.)

My stepdad, who is a mechanic and probably the most macho/conservative blue collar stereotype you could imagine, talking to a bunch of co-workers about a pain in the ass customer:
"If that old man doesn't shut up I'm going to go over there and [censored] him."

Second year in college I fell in love. My family was all panicking that I would lose focus and dropout or something.

Then on Christmas Day my grandfather pulls me aside and says "just remember, they've all got one of them things." !

[TheNoodleMan]

Me: (pissed off about something) "Jesus Christ!"

Mom: "if you say that in anger again I'm going to make you read a book of the bible"

Dad: "Next time say Hugh Heffner"

This is wisdom. I can picture my grandfather saying that to me 20 years ago [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

More details about my post...

Obviously the way I was told about this was pretty bizarre, I didn't have much time to absorb what she told me before the doorbell rang, so we all pretty much stared at each other that first night. Since then we have hung out whenever I am in San Diego, and have talked every few weeks when I am in Santa Barbara. So its just like a normal family relationship, except that I don't know much about her. However, she is normal and her husband and kids are great. They have two girls, 4 and 7 years old. Things are a little awkward between us, but I suppose we are just unsure of how to proceed. It would be pretty sad if we ended up hating each other and went our separate ways. So our relationship is whatever we feel comfortable with. Also, I feel that we wouldn't have met at all if not for everyone turning out the way they did. My mom could have been a junkie, or moved across the world, or died and the same could be said for my sister, but everyone ended up normal so it should be pretty easy for us to have a relationship.

me: how did she have Jamie if she(my Aunt) is infertile?
mom: oh right Jamie, well she bought him for $10K from a Mexican couple that was looking to buy a car when he was about a month old.

and apparently my cousin Jamie still doesn't know he isn't blood related
