sunday dinner

Recommended Posts

as the man of the house and head of the family, i make the rules. rule #1. don't fuck with sunday dinner. every sunday, i make dinner, and if you live here or are a guest here, you sit down in your chair at the time i announce that morning when sunday dinner will be held until dinner is in front of you. for example, if you are my mother in law, you don't go and mow my back lawn at 5:00 when I have announced that sunday dinner will be ready at 5:00 after making several exceptions already to have an early sunday dinner.

 

if you stay at my place then you are eating goddammed sunday dinner with everyone else.

 

if you are my daughter and let's say, many years from now, you want to go hang out with your friends on a sunday evening, that's cool. as long as you are sat in your seat for the entire duration of sunday dinner.

 

swear to god if my salmon is dry i'm going to throw it under the lawnmower right now.

 

sunday dinner.

that sounds like she's being intentionally difficult. how long is she staying? man this sounds like hell.

 

maybe she's been reading the in-laws thread and is playing up to the role? that would be funny.

that first post could have come out of my dads mouth. I was raised like that and that happens at my house too. but we have macaroni on Sunday. that's a rule too.

Fred, if I was at your house on Sunday, I'd respect the fuck out of your Sunday dinner.

two years ago i tried to plan a sunday dinner, but for friends not family, and it became quite clear that most of the people who i had invited had no idea that sunday dinner was meant to be serious business and requires a least shred of attention be paid to the schedule for said dinner. :shrug:

i don't like salmon and i definitely don't like it to be the consistency of cat food. but if you stared at me and repeatedly said "SUNDAY DINNER." with a firm tone of voice and steely eyed resolve i would sit my ass down and eat some goddamn cat food salmon. wouldn't be out mowin' no lawns, i tell you what.
