I've been reminding one that the lady's granddaddy owns a backhoe, and that we ain't afraid of a little midnight digging. I don't think it's sinking in. May have to do a nocturnal run to the border (go for a drive, shove the kid out of the car about 10-15 miles from home).

Dobson is 71.  Maybe CAnnoneer is being groomed to take over Focus on the Family.

I was somewhat afraid of my girlfriend's dad.  He was a big guy and his nose was crooked from getting it broken in a fight.  He looked like a boxer from the 1940's.  That being said, respect for my girlfriend is what made me behave, not fear. 

As a father, I still get a chuckle out of these lists.

As a teenager, this kind of behavior from a father cracked me up. I was 6'8"/270 at 14 years old.  Any kind of intimidation or scare tactic usually resulted in me getting as close to her father as reasonably possible during the conversation. 

Doing this resulted in two things. 

1- It made the dad a little uncomfortable when he realized I wasn't afraid to get within his arm's reach

2- Simple geometry.  The closer I am, the more upward he has to look in order to look me in the eye.

Sometimes being my size comes in handy.  As I am sure it will when my daughter starts dating as I plan to use the same tactics to make an impression on her dates.

Blah, blah, me so scary.   Once the girl is out the door, your control of the situation is gone.

I knew a guy who tried that tactic on a dad once.  He showed up one morning walking with a pronounced limp.  Stayed that way for a while, too.

Years ago I was dating a girl, and her dad wasn't really all that happy that "his little girl" was dating.  Well, one evening I went over there for dinner for them to get to know me a little better.  And by gum, he was gonna make sure that I was properly "intimidated".  So when I came over for dinner, he greeted me at the door with a revolver on his hip.  Just after I said "hi" I went into that mental conversation with myself.  "Do I play nice, or do I let him know that I ain't gonna intimidate?"

I decided I wasn't gonna intimidate.

I point at the revolver and ask, "Thirty-eight?"  He says, "Yes."

"May I see it?"  And he doesn't really know what to say...  So he unholsters it and goes to hand it to me.  Unfortunately, he's got the muzzle pointed right at my gut while handing it over.  I gently push his hand sideways as I grab the muzzle end of the revolver, and again have that little mental argument.  And again, nice loses....

I've got the gun's barrel in my hand, and do a little cowboy flip to end up with the butt of the gun in my hand, held normally.  Hit the cylinder release, flick the cylinder open, look at the empty cylinder, flick my wrist to snap it closed.  Do the little cowboy flip again to hand it to him butt first, holding it by the barrel again.  "Nice," I say.  He doesn't put it back on his hip, just takes the holster off his belt (clip-on holster), puts the gun back in it and starts walking back into the house without saying a word...

Talking the next day about it with my then girlfriend, she said that he'd been totally excited the day before about intimidating me with that little revolver.  She tried to tell him that I was a gun nut, and that I wouldn't be intimidated.  Apparently I completely burst his bubble......


I'm surprised he didn't shoot you for flicking it closed like that. Cheesy

When I dropped the lady off, I gave him back the firing pin he didn't notice go missing when he left the room for a minute.

I'd be careful with this...  I, at least, have a spare firing pin.

Actually, for my AR I have two complete uppers.  Each with it's own bolt.   laugh

I discreetly and very indirectly asked.  If he was tracking fully, he would have known.  He admitted so afterwards.  He thought it was kinda amusing and was rather upset when the young lady and I parted ways.

As has been said, you lose control when they're out the door.

A better response would be raising a daughter with the emotional stability to say no and the skill set to hurt anyone who didn't understand what it means.

I really never got the intimidation attempt. My first girlfriend's father WAS cleaning his shotgun, but it was near hunting season. And I helped him put it back together... Wink

 If I ever have kids (ain't THAT a scary concept?), any girls will be taught how to deal with someone who won't take "no" for an answer. That can include calling her extended family for assistance if necessary...

If I ever breed (one of the signs of End Times no doubt), she'll be trained at calling in close air support.  Besides being able to call 'extended family', of course.

Perhaps, if I had a daughter, I'd feel differently: but this stuff always made me laugh as I thought to myself, "if you only knew that your daughter just got done ATTACKING me whilst mumbling that her parents were lame."  That would be before, of course, she put layers of clothing back on so she didn't look -- again -- like the little tramp she had looked/acted like all evening by wearing what she wanted to wear UNDER the clothes she left the house in.

Seriously, the guy is just a guy.  But the idea that daughters are some little innocents is bunk.  Believing the father has it in for you just makes 2nd base in your driveway more tantalizing, especially if easy access is provided.  Not trying to be an ass, but the happy little nun front is COMPLETELY that.  Sixteen-year-old girls are far more dangerous than sixteen-year-old boys...

And they are just as "hormonal."

My girl is four weeks old and I'm already dreading her growing up. I hope to raise her with enough sense to kick you in the junk if she sees you flick one of my revolvers closed.  grin

I'll be nice to the fellow once he gets to the house. Course once he hits the property line he has 1/2 mile of driveway and a 300ft hill to go. My long range rifle shooting area is planned to overfly said driveway. I love ringing steel with a rifle.  grin Just a little target practice with a nice tan grass colored rifle with him left to look at 50 acres of grass and wonder evert time he drives in.

Seriously though, my town is so small I'll know the whole date before they get home. I knew someone robbed the bank three miles away while it was happening. Sheriff looked at the surveillance vid and pretty much called the dumbass robber's mother. Small town intel.

RevDisk, by "extended family", I'm partially refering to the link in my sig line. I'm also refering to my old man... the one that hangs out in a merc bar in Thailand... Wink

 It's nice to have friends Cheesy

 But, as has been said: if you haven't raised your daughter right, things ARE gonna happen. Yes, the "intimidate the boy" can keep him from trying anything, but NOTHING you do or say to the boy (short of summary castration) is gonna keep him from doing things if "daddy's lil' angel" decides she wants him to...

Thank god I know I'm having a boy.

"The girls make the rules, if the gates of hell don't open, no one gets pregnant."  paraphrased from my junior year Civics teacher, Romano Romani, a man who grew up in Chicago during the Capone era.

I strongly beleive every teenage boy should have to babysit a "why, why, why" toddler for a weekend, talk about effective birth control.  Kept my wife from getting pregnant a solid five years longer than I anticipated.  cheesy No kidding.

I had one dad of a lady I was dating tried to do the whole 'scare tactic' on me.  Showed me his shiney new AR15 and everything.  He didn't say anything too obvious, but insinuated he'd use it on me if I stepped out of line. 

When I dropped the lady off, I gave him back the firing pin he didn't notice go missing when he left the room for a minute.

Our 16 yo daughter just went next door to see the new baby. She came back with horrific stories of cheese like substances oozing from the corner of it's mouth. I said, "Babies are gross, I stay away from them."  laugh

I guess that works for some girls.  By 16, my sister had "sat" for quite a number of babies, so she wasn't going to be grossed out anymore.  To her, babies meant getting paid to watch TV while the baby sleeps and the parents are out with friends. 

Then again, she didn't sleep around, either, so maybe it works.   smiley

My wife spent the past couple of years potty-training two-year-olds for TEN HOURS a day.   shocked  She wants kids more than before.
