It is very usual to watch mom and dad bickering over lunch at home. They have been doing this for as long as I could remember. The usual stuffs that they would argued over varied from how many times one should take bath in a day, dad should stop buying sweets to spoil the two kids at home, his very bad hygiene, his sleeping schedule to her wastefulness when it comes to water as she is quite obsessed with cleanliness, her over generosity when it comes to cooking up a storm for the family etc.
Today’s lunch bickering was one of the funniest. (Most of them are quite funny).
Dad: I think I will get us a toothpick holder.
Mom: Why you want a tooth pick holder in the house?? You think this is a restaurant?
Dad: You don't tell me you can only use toothpicks in restaurants??
Mom: Why would you want to use a toothpick anyway? You might as well just take out your dentures and brush them. We have no real tooth left anyway.
I laughed my ass off.
A good relationship withstands the test of time. Hopefully, my parents’ could withstand many and more lunch arguments to come.
