Parents....they're yours whether you like it or not. But my question is, what traits did you pick up from them? Do you walk like your father, or are you as cynical as your mother? What things do you have that your parents also have?
For me, I would have to say I picked up the gift of sarcasm from my father. I can never give a straight answer, and I know how annoying it can be since I deal with it when I'm around my dad. While he's pretty much an expert at his sarcastic responses, I'm not too bad either I suppose.
Unfortunately, I've also picked up his tactlessness (and I know auraki would agree with that). I try to say things as I mean them, but sometimes the words that I say can be too harsh and I don't necessarily think of the way I should say them until the words are already out of my mouth. Most of the time it's accidental, but for my father...I think he enjoys being tactless.
We (me and my father) also can give some of the most evil glares ever known to man. That he taught me well. Fear make such a good weapon when necessary.
Well, what about you? What things did you pick up from your parents?
