is my dad supposed to sound more like a teenager than I do?
Situation: Dad and I are watching the X-Files episode "Eve". Scully is rounding the corner of a semitrailer with her gun held out.
Dad-who-likes-the-color-purple: "What, you're going to shoot a pair of eight-year-olds? Get real, Scully!"
Me-who-likes-the-color-blue-and-is-telling-you-about-it: (thinking) 'And he sometimes complains about me doing comentary!'
"Get real" seems like an oddly teenagerish thing to say to me. But how can I know, I've had very limited contact with the species.
