Took my elderly dad to the mall the other day to buy some new shoes.

We decided to grab a bite at the food court.

I noticed he was watching a teenager sitting next to him.

The teenager had spiked hair in several different colours: red, green, orange, blue, yellow and purple.

My dad kept staring at him.

The teenager would look and find him staring every time.

When the teenager had had enough he sarcastically asked:

'What's the matter old man, never done anything wild in your life?'

Knowing my Dad, I quickly swallowed my food so that I wouldn't choke at his response; he would have a good one.

And in classic style he delivered it :

'Got drunk once and had sex with a peacock. I was just wondering if you were my son.'

I can Imagine that coming from Clint Eastwood (the new, 'grumpy old man' Eastwood)
