  1. Update - he's chosen as the path of least resistance his pitching a fit and me forcing it down his throat. So 15 seconds of making sure he doesn't spit it out, and him crying for two minutes saying the medicine is yucky. Me and his dad can live with it. Problem solved. Note: I've buried the lead. The real issue is that the medicine is white. He'll take purple medicine (Tylenol and dimetap) without a whimper. And the pharmacist told my daugher not to fuck with food coloring.
  2. Again, I like this, but the deeper issue with the kid is that he is a horrifically finicky eater. When I was raising my daughters, they ate what adults ate (never allowed to look at kids menu), so they were pretty open about food. My son in law is a meat and potatoes guy and they have allowed the kid to pick his own shitty snacks and comfort food. If we tried this with him he would simply refuse to mix it with anything. His only really flaw is this medicine/food thing.
  3. Yes. Mostly because I'm quicker to the final ultimatum. My OP kind of shows that I go from "nice guy" to "WTF are you kidding me!" within five minutes. But in fairness, by the time my daughters were three they were pretty easy to reason with. This guy just loves fucking with Mom (and Pop Pop).
  4. Where is the "leopard's sodomizing and then eating GOP faces" thread?
  5. You can't compete with the kind of stupidity that would accept a hateful Russian puppet and his party of cowards to assuage his fear of the theoretical 14-year old transgendered individual getting third place in a regional swim meet. You hope it's contained by genetics and mortality and you move on.
  6. Wait, so what did the WNBA do?
  7. Thanks for the moral support folks. Part of the issue as a grandparent, which you younger guys will see before you know it, is that you look back in regret at the wrong moves you made as a parent, and you want to make sure you don't repeat them. Sure, some of the regrets are big ticket items, but the things that bother me the most are the little things -- I don't ever want to be the cause of raised voices or tears if I can help it.
  8. I guess if you're Mexican.
  9. I kind of like the procedural aspect of this. Anyway I waited for his mom to leave the house and then I took a syringe and jammed 4 ml of ghost pepper down his throat (you'd think by the way he howled). He didn't spit it back up but the tears spilled and all sorts of guck came out of his nose. He was pissed. After I reminded him that his mom was my daugter and I didn't like him making her sad and the doctor and all of us just wanted him to get better. I asked him if he was going to take it himself tomorrow or if we wanted to "do this again" and he said that he could handle it. I don't buy it. He didn't want to sing our usual "Folsom Prison Blues" with me tonight after his bedtime story, so there is a price to everything.
  10. Circa 1996: Me to daughter: Hey, take this pink medicine. It will help your cough and runny nose. Daughter to me: Okay. My grandson will not take his medicine. Me: Okay, no TV. Him: Okay, whatever. Son of a bitch! I'm pretending this will translate into some sort of positive gumption when he's older, but goddamn. And no, the kid won't eat anything I offer him, so mixing it into anything won't work either. Kids chest sounds like a mixing truck.
  11. It does look the best scenario for a clean do over. Hopefully this time dogs are the ones who evolve and get their shot.
  12. I hope there is a special hell for these haters, and I hope it's somewhere here on earth.
  13. My dad was Army Air Corps. In them rough years, '46, '47 and '48.
  14. Let a transgendered high schooler race in a high school swim meet, fool me once. Let two more race over the course of the next year, we won't get fooled again.
