Default Times that your parents have embarrassed you

As a kid with a first generation immigrant parent, embarrassing moments were a part of my everyday life (before I learned to not be a shallow douche with regards to my Dad's heritage, at least).

The following moment was brought back into my memory by the joke flopping thread.

When I was about 16, one of my first girlfriends was over, basically meeting my parents. Things went well, as my parents are really nice and sociable. My Dad makes tons of terrible jokes all the time, but they weren't too bad until the following: as me and the gf left to go watch a movie upstairs, my Dad said "be careful, I'm not covering the cost of an abortion." I almost cried on the spot. The gf laughed it off, but I'm sure it did not weigh favorably.

If it makes you feel any better, your dad probably didn't get laid that night either.

Back around the time Al Gore invented the internet, my family got AOL. I was probably around 8 years old or so. I logged on and decided to check out the Nickelodeon chat room. There were a bunch of kids in there. I talked to a few of them, then wrote, "HEY EVERYBODY!! WHO WANTS TO SEE A BIG DICK?!?" Funny thing was, one chick was like "I DO!"

Long story short, my family's account was insta-banned. My dad tried to log on and couldn't, then spoke with AOL support and they explained the story. A very awkward conversation ensued between me and my parents.

Cut to the present. Somehow, someway, this story always seems to come up during large gatherings. We'll all be sitting around the dinner table, and my parents would explain to family and friends how our AOL was banned. Everyone bursts out laughing, and I end up looking like a huge ass hole. Oh well.

My dad is very old, and a psychiatrist. I think he's a follower of Freud and such, although I've never really talked to him about it. If there's something inappropiate to say, he'll say it.

My ex-gf got me this poster for my birthday (it was cropped so there was only 1 smoke stack).

my dad: Look at that phallic.

Funny how everyone replying in the thread is young. Wait til you get older. You will realize that your parents never did anything to embarrass you.
