Today on the way home from lunch, my dad and I notice many cops in their cars, waiting for that one speeder. For those late to the blog, I call my dad - Babi - which is my word for father. The actual Bengali word for father is Baba, but for some reason I couldn't say it!
Dad- they're just waitin' and watchin'
Me- Did you just drop the G?
Dad- Yeah I speak American, what do you think?
Me- What?
Dad- Now I say 'come on in'! instead of 'please come in'!
Me- :-O
Dad- What you think that I didn't not know how to talk 'Merican?
Me- You even got the double negatives!? (shocked)
Where have you been learning this atrocity?
Dad- From ma friens!
Breathin'! Keep on breathin'!
