Earlier this evening I was wasting time on Facebook, and I ran across this picture I had posted and tagged my dad in:
Yeah, you read right. My dad has Facebook. The day I got a friend request from him was probably one of the 10 most awkward days of my life. But, I digress.
One rainy November evening (insert "November Rain" or Guns N' Roses comments here) I discovered this highly entertaining website called Face-In-Hole. I discovered this website because my best friend Cathy posted a picture of me "with" Justin Bieber - I found this uproariously funny and decided to spend my entire evening putting my friends in pictures.
I have long thought that my dad resembles Hulk Hogan, and this Face-In-Hole opportunity was golden. I put him in the picture and promply uploaded it to Facebook, tagging him in the picture so it would appear on his profile. About 10 minutes after I posted it, I got a call from Dad saying that he appreciated me tagging Hulk Hogan as him and that was really funny. It took me about 30 seconds to figure out that Dad didn't realize that was his face in the picture and not Hulk Hogan's. We argued on the phone about this for a good 15 minutes until I told him to have June, my stepmother, take a look and verify for him that it was, in fact, his face. Even after this, Dad still didn't believe it was him on the screen. 20 minutes later, he finally conceded that it was his face on Hulk's body, only after he saw the birthmark he has on his cheek in the picture.
SHEESH.
And people wonder why I am the way I am?!
Oh Halee! I am rolling! That's just too funny!
ReplyDeleteWow - he does look just like your dad! At first I couldn't figure out why you said you tagged this picture of your dad. If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known the difference!
ReplyDeleteDid he ever randomly run around the house and just rip open his shirt all while telling you that if you didn't say your prayers, eat your vitamins, and train hard then Hulkamania was going t o run wild on you?
