ha ha ha. i think we've all heard that line a few times...
my dads scared me a few times...
what he does sometimes is: driving along up to lights, turns yellow, too far away to make it, he puts his foot down and the v8 makes its sound, i think "oh my ****ing god!!!", then he brakes hard and turns to me and asks "hahaha... did you think i was going to do that?"
also once, going up to a stop sign he says "close your eyes, i'm going to go through" "WHAT THE ****?!?!?!?!" stops "...ha ha ha" grrrrr ... it's always that split second of time where i believe him.
it doesn't work anymore though
