Just like Da

17-04-2009


Apparently I am getting more like my Dad. Not in the grumpy old man of madness shouting "GET OFF MY LAWN!" sort of way, because let's face it I am insane enough as it is. But in a physical sort of way.

No not fat before anybody suggests that one as well.

Growing up Dad always had this funny clicking sound when he was chewing food. Never really thought much about it, because as a child you just get used to things as being normal.

Later he showed me that he could actually make the click sound on purpose, without chewing. Turns out that I inherited this odd jaw bone myself and over the years I have used it as a party trick. People are both shocked and disgusted every time I do it.

It's actually quite loud and my best mate pointed out one time that it doesn't look like the sound is coming from me. Which adds to the part piece.

But never has it happened when I chewed food, until now.

It was pointed out over breakfast this morning that I now click when chewing. Unintentionally.

Not sure if that is a good sign or not. Maybe all them years of entertaining others with the clicking has caused it to get worse. The things I do for cheap laughs.
