Anyway... This thread is for everyone who has a crazy family and would love to tell a story about them. They can be good, or sad, or bad- doesn't matter. Tell about how your cousin once got arrested for running in his boxers.
Or explain one of your family traditions that no one else has. I'm so nosy, I'm eager to learn anything about your family and how it works! I guess I'll just start off with a lovely little incident about my family. My father, his parents divorced each other when he was about 12, and it was pretty bitter. He had to go live with other relatives, and I think lived with his siblings on their own in a trailer for a while. So- this has made him very protective of our family as a unit. To him, it's like our family vs the world. We have to stick together no matter what. I can't tell you how many lectures he's given me about sticking up for and defending my family in any situation. But the thing is, he'll do stuff that totally contradicts what he tells me all the time. Like, when I go out to babysit for this family on Saturday nights, he thinks that it's the perfect opportunity to cook one of my favorite homecooked meals (a really rare thing for us), or go out and see a movie I've wanted to see, or rent a movie and watch it while I'm gone. It's like he doesn't even care that I'm missing out on it! 
I hate hypocrisy of any kind, and when he does things like this, it really infuriates me how hypocritical he is! Sigh... And he laughs it off when I tell him about it... I can't wait to go to college.
