nina_vendredi: (That'll give you bees)

My dad has apparently decided to become a beekeeper.

My step-mom is lamenting that dad is spending all their money on bees. My eldest sister who moved in with them to change scenery after ditching her husband is calling dad a slave-driver for making her clear brush. I'm the asshole encouraging this endeavor, not because he has any particular skill in it, but because the bee industry is on the verge of collapse and the demand for honey is just going to go up with the backlash against HFCS.

This also means that dad has promised to send me homebrew mead.

Someone really needs to make a sitcom about your family.

Yeah, we really should only exist in fiction. Also, how messed up is my family when I'm probably the straight man?

That second sentence is hilarious for so many reasons. Also? OMFG YOUR ICON. "It's the hardest part of my job. ...I THINK!"

I always meant to do more of these.
