Seems like you're the illiterate one in that conversation, OP.

I disagree but I am open for interpretations

Damn Picasso was so fucking good
why would an illiterate man want to read anything?
>>9062873
>Son reads books all day, not much of a reader yourself so can't really bond
>Carefully look over son's shoulder (so that he doesn't notice) to check out what he's reading
>"Homer"? what, like the simpsons?
>Google "what is homer literature"
>Keep browsing until eventually get to a video of a bunch of soulful negros spitting out their 'poems' on stage
>Maybe this is what we need, maybe I can finally connect with my son.
>Bring up the idea at dinner that night
>"Um.... yeah... maybe not, dad."
>Just wanted a son who plays baseball and asks me about girls and stuff
>>9062873
>calls people losers
>is himself a loser
>>9062873
>baiting this hard
My dad also tells me and my brother we should read more, when he hasn't read a book since college
It's a dad thing, I get it.
