Get in, kid

By -__- - 28/10/2011 11:50 - Australia

Today, I think my dad has finally lost his shit and is having a mid-life crisis. He showed up at my school and had me brought to the front desk. He told me to get in the car because we were going to have some "father-daughter bonding". This meant us watching Silent Hill with his work buddies. FML

Mid-life crisis

By theslutmuncher - 14/12/2012 23:20 - Germany - Merseburg

Today, in the midst of his ongoing mid-life crisis, my dad forced me to accompany him for some father-son bonding. The bonding involved me driving us away at high speed after he gleefully hurled a bucket of paint all over a store window. FML

Survivor

Today, I came home to find my dad's mid-life crisis has finally started. He's blacked all our windows, barricaded the door to the backyard, and set up a bunch of security cameras in and out of the house. It seems he's been reading up on Survivalist and Masonic conspiracy theory bullshit. FML

Today, it's the third week of my dad's midlife crisis. So far he's blown half my college fund pimping out his piece of shit car, keeps texting me meme pictures, and keeps yelling "Savage!" and "Recked!" any time my mom makes a joke at anyone's expense. FML

Crisis control

Today, my dad hit his mid-life crisis. When I came home and said hi, he told me to shut up, then went to the living room. He then lit up a cigarette and started muttering about having to put up with me, then went into a coughing fit, because he's never smoked before in his life. FML

Today, my dad was driving me to college. I'd cracked a joke about how old people like him shouldn't be allowed to drive, and I guess he took it personally, what with him speeding straight up to the parking lot wall, and only braking after I started shrieking in terror. FML

Today, my father, who is going through a serious mid-life crisis, walked into my room, told me to "sit the fuck down," and spent the next two hours ranting about how the Lord of the Rings books prophesy the end of the world this December, and that Sauron is an analogy for "corrupt bankers." FML

Today, my dad is going through a midlife crisis. He now wants to be less like a dad and more like a "best friend" to me. This mainly involves him constantly texting me, sending me stuff on Snapchat, and saying stuff like "wicked cool", "bazinga", and "swag" every chance he gets. FML

Today, my dad decided to have a little father and daughter bonding time. Unfortunately, his idea of bonding involves him sitting around at home, getting piss drunk, and falling asleep. FML

Today, my dad sat me down for a talk. After the talk, he wasn't my dad anymore. FML

Growing old disgracefully

By adam - 05/12/2015 14:54 - Czech Republic

Today, my dad is having his midlife crisis, bought a Mercedes, along with having a girlfriend less than half his age. I was trying to be supportive, until I found out he is funding his midlife crisis with my university loan. FML

This sounds like the intro to some much more disturbing "father-daughter bonding." And look! He's brought friends!

Sounds like bonding to me. Too bad it was a crappy movie though. Should've watched Friendship is magic. It's better and for all ages!

Nothing bring a family closer than headshots on woodland creatures.

I don't think this is really too bad? Enjoy it while you can, however crap a movie it is... You get to spend time with him... You'll regret it later when he is gone if you pass up chances now. :/ life is too short for this to be the worst thing that's happened to you.

Haha I love OP's username. But this really doesn't sound like a mid-life crisis to me, though I don't know for sure. Sounds more like your dad is an idiot for making you skip school to spend time with him. He couldn't have watched Silent Hill with you AFTER school? FYL

I don't get where the mid-life crisis comes into play here. If he came to your school to hit on your friends, that would be a mid-life crisis (and an idea I should consider, heh-heh-heh.)

School is important but i would have killed to have my father do that with me when i was younger. He was unemployed and still "didnt have time" to make it to my track events, graduation from basic training or even visit me when i WASNT deployed and still unable to leave the state i was in. Now he wonders why i dont call and even cries about it sometimes. Take advantage and be greatful

You need to make a connection, because when he is gone your going to be wishing you had... Do yourself a favor and call him. :-)

#50, that's not always easy to do. If they've shown that they don't care enough to call you, why waste your time calling when they won't answer? At least that's how it is for me. As for the FML, you should have played the games. :P
