Or perhaps it's just that other people find it amusing I call it a kind of sport. Though I admit I know nothing of your parents. Both of my parents know about the pro-scene in StarCraft, but pay no attention to it. Some things just can't be helped though; I can't force them to follow my interests. | ||

You just described your Dad desperately trying initiate conversation with you as "Interrogation Mode." Oh yeah, if you want your Dad to remember what you tell, you can't give him abrupt little replies. If you listed 10 facts out of the blue about Zebras, nobody would be able to remember any of them. But if you tell a story about them with plenty of context, people will. You don't know for certain that her dad really cares and wants to have a conversation though. My dad used to ask me questions like this and I would tell him stories of awesome games I'd seen recently or funny threads and he just zoned me out and kept asking around as if I hadn't said anything. Still love him, but he did. | ||

On topic: I feel like parents only ask to make sure you aren't dying/insane/in trouble and if the answer to their inquisitions is something tamer than Porn/Drugs/Becoming a Black Metal band groupie they stop listening sometimes. Just today I was on TL typing away on my mechanical keyboard and my dad come's in and asks what I'm working so hard on in here. "Nothing, just posting on the TL forums dad. It's not work." "Oh. ok." I think he lost interest at "posting" lol | ||

I don't mind conversation, but there's a time and a place. Parents often demand peace and quiet time, or some space, I too required this at times as a stroppy teenager, but on other times could have great conversations. I just hate monosyllabic small-talk, same as in any job I've worked. It's so fucking awkward I don't know why people bother half the time | ||

You responded, "o, its jus' a mesh ujj bored" Of course, he's probably not going to know what that means, because he doesn't keep up with technology or "what all the cool kids are doing these days." Thus is he launched, like a Labrador when he expects his tennis ball to be thrown one direction, but his master throws it in another one, into that boggy cloud of demential confusion, out of which none over 40 has ever been seen returning. In his vain attempt to climb out of the mire, he continues mucking through until he cannot bear to try to understand any longer, and tries instead to return to the original point, latching on to whatever he remembers comprehending. Had he listened to your first words a bit better, he may have saved himself by helping to fix the problem of uncomfortable nighttime temperatures. I often pity how "normal" and "society-driven" my family members are (and others in general). But then I ask, "Where are all the weird people? You know, the ones with long beards and their own cornucopia of deities? Where are the ones with devices of their own creation in the backyard that tend the gardens and the grass for them, a problem they have solved and not simply settled with giving up search of the answer?" And then I realize, perhaps they have left society, and I am still inside it. And do I really want to leave society, or can people of this kind be found within it? What a luxury that would be! | ||

It's fine. o.o If I made some thread where it was like "I'm hosting a Pong tournament on May 23rd, with a prize of 25 dollars for the winner, let me know if you want to sign up!" and then it drifted off into sexual predators and grammar mistakes, I might be a bit peeved, but in this case, nah. | ||

You are acting like 12. Your parents are just concerned about you. They are just checking what is up with you and what you are doing in the internet as things happening nowadays can be shitty, predators and shit. You should be thankful your dad is taking time doing this, just to make sure you wont end up a hooker or have daddy issues. Meh, you wont understand this until you are old enough.. Just try to improve your conversation skills with your parents as they are trying too. Explain SC2 stuff like you would explain to a child - that should work. Your lucky they even try and are concerned... kids these days.. | ||
