Dad always demands over-the-top praise for his cooking from his children, encouraged by their mother. If the children gave an honest opinion that the food was just okay, Dad would get upset. So instead, the children list extravagant adjectives to describe the food. On one occasion, a friend of the children unintentionally points out that the dish Dad made was simply scrambled eggs, much to the embarrassment of the mother who was trying to keep her children quiet.

1. DISH OF THE DAY
Every time Dad cooks dinner
You have to make an enormous fuss.
Encouraged by Mum
Who says that he wont do it again
Unless you say its the most wonderful,
Delicious,remarkable,fantastic,scrumptious,
Taste-bud popping,delectable feast,
Youve ever clapped your teeth on
Whenever you swallow a mouthful
He hovers over you asking:
鱈s it alright what do you think of it?
No really, tell me the truth!
If you actually did tell him the truth,
That its OK or even not bad
Hed probably hit the roof
So instead you say:
Wonderful,delicious,remarkable,fantastic,
Scrumptious taste-bud popping..
And he smiles,
A kind of proud but trying not to be big-headed
Smile and goes:
Cant you think of anything else to say?
Until your mate (who doesnt know how weird your dad is)
And who hasnt noticed your mum kicking him under
the table and doing her goldfish face,which means:
Keep your trap shut!
Says:
ts very nice,Mr.Bishop.But it is onlyscrambled eggs.
