My mother claims--at least, in her lame attempt to smooth things over--that she meant similar personalities/mannerisms. I never did find out if they really looked alike. Thanks for your visit! Stop by anytime. Cheers. LIZ

Those pug dogs may well be ugly, but they are loyal and loving - maybe they were cousin Iris's attributes too? Your father sounds like a loose cannon in social situations.

My father's tactlessness reigned supreme for years, it was only recently Trumped.

LOL. Your dad was deadly. Sorry, but what an awful thing to say. My husband was prone to say the wrong thing at the wrong time, but nothing ever like that. Oh, Liz, you must have been on tenter hooks.

The whole exchange is totally believable! Such a smooth dance of misunderstanding. Really very smooth ... If one wasn't listening closely, one would never know what was really said :)

No way to un-see that picture or un-say those words; thus the title "UnFriended" in a FLASH.

Just as well. Sometimes Freudian slips happen for a reason. Bless that subconscious mind already!!
Comment from judiverse
Oh, no! Another example of your father's "tactful" remarks. I happen to think pugs are cute, but that's just me. They also have sweet dispositions. Maybe Iris had a sweet disposition. This was funny, and great insight into someone's foot and mouth disease. He didn't seem to realize that his comments weren't appropriate. judi

Your father was the one who came up with the grotesque comment about Iris's looks. It was so vivid it might have been hard to smooth over. judi

You can't take those words back, that's for sure. judi

Hello Liz.
Charlie is just overtaken with the moment it seems. He just doesn't bother filtering any of the comments. He just feels compelled to get the story out.
HAHA

Liz, your sense of humour gives me my morning chuckles. Perhaps your father tried to be funny, but it came out badly? I have known people like that too. lol Keep them coming.
