Re: Typical Daant from elders ..
I know this wasn’t the point of your post but I wanted to express my condolences for your loss. As someone else said, it must have been very tough to have endured that at a young age. I’m sure you grew up a lot quicker than most people did as a result.
As for daants, man, my dad used to be like “Kuttay de puttar!” all the time, especially when I brought home bad report cards. So one day I finally replied, “You sure about that, dad?” I thought his face was gonna explode but fortunately he just forced himself to walk away.
