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?

	considering etiquette refers to customary behaviors, and this situation is far from customary, i'm not sure there is etiquette. i think we're in the clear. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Then you're certainly more experienced. I only know one other person with someone in her head, although I don't know who she has. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Alexis K/Dallas S hislittlerose 2012-08-30 02:24 am UTC (link)
	It seems a little too personal to ask of someone that I actually know. Asking a total stranger seems less weird somehow, since I don't even know the first thing about you - other than a unisex name and an initial. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
