Today, I'm driving cross-country with my parents. As if the stifling heat isn't bad enough, they keep stopping to admire, comment on, and practically do a photoshoot in every corn field we pass. FML

When life gives you corn, make apple sauce. That way, you confuse the **** outta life.

If life gives you lemons squeeze them in someone's eye and steal their wallet.

OP, were you in Kansas? Outside of the few cities and many small towns, corn and hills are pretty much the only things you'll find out here, apart from the occasional windmill and grain silos. Then again, I guess that applies to any state in the Midwest...

While OP is getting a chance to stop at every other corn field; They should make 'crop circles' in everyone of them. I'll turn on the fox news for 'bizarre UFO activity'... and snicker :-)

Sounds like something Dory (however you spell that) would say. Except him being underwater and all.

If it was Dory she wouldn't say again, she'd think everytime was the first time (unless Nemo's Dad is around)

I am wondering where they are from that corn is fascinating to them. They should go to Alabama where I used to live and check out the kudzu if they love corn that much. Kudzu the plant that ate the deep south! Beware of the kudzu!

yeah my parents would never stop at a corn field...

42istheanswer 27

My parents wouldn't but alot of my family would, especially if there's bugs, birds, or moose. 6sand OPs drives take hours longer, my hikes take 3-4 times as long. I can share how painful it is to stand there for something like that, i feel bad for you, if its your parents you cant get out of going on the next one

I mean corn fields are kinda similar looking where ever you go but if your parents plan is to drive cross country you should expect to take in the scenery or else it defeats the purpose of driving. It definitely is easier to enjoy the trip with a spouse rather than your parents though so fyl. Make the best of it and bond with your parents!! One day youll love the memory...unless your parents suck. (which it doesnt really sound like they do)

6- the sun does not burn. It is Hydrogen atoms combining with Hydrogen atoms to make Helium, and the energy from that is given off as light and heat. The funny part about the last bit of your photo: I'm Christian.

Corn is sustenance. Sustenance is life. Life is beautiful. Therefore, corn is beautiful.

Life is not beautiful.

Fans don't really work that well too cool you off. Plus that doesn't solve OPs corn and parents problem. On a side note I didn't even know cars didn't have air conditioning.
