So, I attended the Republican National Convention this week. That was certainly ~~a shitshow~~ interesting. As a (rare, Democrat) guest of some old friends, I had the good fortune to be invited to this year's HomoCon, which is a party for gay Republicans put on by GOProud (I know, clever right? Even Republican gays are more creative than their hetero counterparts.) As a [...] straight, Democrat attendee I was obviously there as more of an ambassador, but it was great to see some familiar faces and I even got a disco ball keychain for my daughter. I also got to spend some time with my father during the RNC, and although he still hasn't quite forgiven me for turning out liberal, a box of cigars seemed to help him forget for a few days.

What are some other effective methods you use to help your parents forget about how they're supposed to be disappointed in you?

	I take it you're a fan of scandal? Unfortunately for you, my older sister leads a spectacularly ordinary life. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Too much of a fan. Any cousins with skeletons in the closet? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	~~Please don't mention closets~~ No. However, I do have an aunt who likes to sing in Polish when she's had a few too many. (She doesn't speak Polish.) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Some wine and directions to the nearest china shop should do the trick. Or just cross your fingers and hope someone leaks some naked photos somewhere. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm not sure if you mean naked pictures of me, or of my aunt. She is sixty-three and this is not a pleasant image. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Of dear auntie, or another. Pleasant isn't what you're shooting for anyways. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm not shooting for scandal of any kind, actually. It tends to be political anathema. But I won't be offended if you keep on hoping. You're certainly not alone. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I don't know. I find this plenty pleasant. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Is that really your idea of a sixty-three-year-old? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's far too young. I don't date minors. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	pesadilla 2012-08-30 01:58 am UTC (link)
	And I certainly wouldn't hit it twice. (Reply to this) (Parent)
