Today, I brought my girlfriend home to introduce to my parents. My dad thought it would be hilarious to fill some clear bags full of flour, then pretend he was sampling a cocaine shipment when she arrived. She excused herself very quickly and isn't answering my calls. FML

She really believed it was cocaine? Plus, couldn't you run after her when she excused herself? I myself would probably find that really funny, but that's just me.

Dad are always the one to take it a little too far.

he said cocaine,not coke-_- coke and cocaine arent the same thing

Obvious joke is more than obvious, Andy.

And it might've been a funny joke if the FML had the word "coke" in it. But it doesn't, so #3's just forcing an overplayed joke that doesn't even apply. Hurr.

... Coca cola used to have cocane in it

An ingredient used to make cocaine, not cocaine itself. Either way, I don't see the relevance.

I think its more of a laugh later situation. In her position, I'm sure i would have freaked out at least a bit.

Not to mention, many people actually don't do drugs and prefer to avoid then when possible. Though I do think it's a bit extreme that now she's ignoring OP because of his dad.

I definitely would panic some, but leave and not return calls? That's a little overboard. Out of the 'brought home partner parents thought it was funny to..' This has to be the one that I say would be fine and the girl overreacted

As someone who has never actually seen cocaine in real life, I understand why she would assume it was real. I'd be super surprised and uncomfortable as well and don't blame her for leaving. I don't want be around drugs at all let alone a "shipment" which she thought it was. If it was real and the police busted them she would be in trouble too. So I see why she up and left. But you'd think that op would've gone after her and told her his dad was joking, and they could've laughed about it. I wonder if op went after her or not? More details op. And your dad's hilarious!

Your dad seems hilarious! I wouldn't try not to worry about it too much. Who knows? Might be a funny story to tell later in life :)

I think you should be proud your dad has a good sense of humor and you should try talking to her in person and tell her it was a joke she should understand if she's a reasonable human.

That's a total dad thing to do- and if she really can't handle a joke like that then she probably won't be able to handle any kind of stressful situation

if something like that would scare her away, I'd hate to see her at one of my family gatherings.

The ones with a surprising sense of humour are usually the best people. Usually...

Your dad sounds awesome!! And your girlfriend sounds kind of like a Debbie downer, someone you can't really joke around with a lot... Which in my opinion really sucks. But I really do hope everything works out and she gives you a chance to explain your family's awesome humor!
