::Texting

So we got texting several months ago, for Daddy's business purposes. We don't really use it that much actually, we just stick to phone calls still. But there is one use for texting that has changed our lives completely. It is an opportunity for our entire family(and some others) to send lines back and forth. Like movie lines. Or inside jokes. Or such...This becomes a chain conversation between many people that makes no sense at all except to the ones texting. To them...it's hilarious. So if you're with one of us sometime, we get a text, read it, and burst out laughing...one of these is probably going on:

Dad: "Can you come get me?"

Meg: "Did you get some eight?"

Dad: "Say eight. Say eight. Happy eight day!"

Dad: "Headed home. Should be there around 11-11:30 unless we get behind some show horses."

Meg: "If you get hungry, get ya something to eat."

Dad: "Oh no, I couldn't. Just had two cups of ice cream."

Meg: "I just put it as a joke but they're going out like that..."

Dad: "I'm stuck in the juice isle waking up banana man....I keep telling....Man, these bananas are good!"

Meg: "I can see they all have party hats on...back off Cran Man..."

Dad: "It's fun to fly...."

Meg: "There's nine of us and you're in the middle and you've got to learn how to use your utensil with your elbows touching."

Dad: "Are you the proprietor?"

Meg: "Like I don't know what he's up to!!"

Dad: "Rise and shine! Come be a part of the news team that cares."

Meg: "Maybe...I don't go home that way..."

Dad: "Next?...."

Dad: "I want another..."

Dad: "And like 30 songs on my iPod...."

Dad: "Night night MooBear. Have fun storming the castle."

Dad: "But even a poor tailor is entitled to some happiness....YES PAPA?!"

Meg: "Yo yo we clubbing tonight?"

Dad: "To whom it may concern...I am not Mr. Yoyo. I wanted to send you this notification as a courtesy to let you know that your message was sent to a different party. Good luck in all your future endeavors....and God speed."

Trustin: "Our cactus's name is Edwardo Eldorado Montoia Lopez Gomes Sanchez Hose Enrique Rodrigues Diablo Ernesto Ricardo Chico Nikko Pablo Pacco Padre Cacama Salcador Miguel Carlos Pedro Rodrigo Antonio Francisco Delarossa Dinsdale."

Dad: "They're dancing....!"

Dad: "I did my card...flipped that little switch...guess the next logical thing..."

Dad: "Word...w..o..r..d. Spelled backwards: DROW."

Dad: "Man, that guy can paint a bowl of fruit! That looks just like a bowl of fruit..."

Meg: "Oh, have you been to the Laouverr?"

Dad: "No, only in my favorite season wintaire..."

Jen: "Don't! Cross! This! Line! With your hand!"

Dad: "Don't manhandle me!!"

Jen: "Grandpapa is 72."

Dad: "Hey Crow, can I get your autograph?....in my van...."

Jen: "Ya think every day's Sundee??"

Meg: "I thought you were dead!!"

Dad: "We're jimmy jacked."

Jen: "What use would your shoes be to me?"

Meg: "Don't you want them anymore??"

Dad: "I love Brian Piccalo."

Jen: "Ya look a little nervous there, ramen noodle."

Dad: "It's iocane powder...I'd bet my life on it!"

Jen: "I am an old, married man..."

Dad: "If we only had a back cloak.."

Alex: "We'll make millions.We'll call it...PEG LEG MEG."

Alex: "I'm sad to inform you we have found someone else to play Meg in the hit musical Peg Leg Meg. Thank you for auditioning and we hope to see you in the future."

Jen: "I don't suppose you couldn't speed things up?"

Meg: "Son of a...ICE GIANT!"

Gracie: "And that is why YOU are also banished!"

Meg: "There's just no time."

Gracie: "But why write it in English, sir? We are German!"

Meg: "Pew. Pew pew."

Dad: "They gave each other a pledge....unheard of!"

Gracie: "Hey, have you guys ever had shwarma??"

Jen: "Never bet with a Sicilian when DEATH is on the line!!"

Gracie: "Hey, I'm batman. Want to know my secret identity?"
