Unfortunately, my father is a certified, card-carrying (metaphorically, anyways) member of the Knights of the Five-Sided Castle. He works for the United States government. I'm looking for others like me to help each other overcome this horrific upbringing so that we can become truly Chaos Incarnate. For further explanation, consult your pineal gland...

Everybody cut footloose with me,
At the party at the leper colony!

My father enjoys the music of Leon Redbone. 

Horrific upbringing is rather subjective.  Do what I do: drink a lot, learn to ignore, but nod now and then... to be polite.

I'm not old enough to drink. Will retreating into my own mental world work?

BADGE OF HONOR

The Jerk On Bike rolled his eyes and tossed the waffle back over his shoulder--before it struck the ground, a stout, disconcertingly monkey-like dog sprang into the air and snatched it, and began to masticate it--literally--for the sound it made was like a homonculus squatting on the floor muttering "masticate masticate masticate".

In a pinch, sure.  But do yourself a favour and go buy yourself a flask... you deserve it.

How intriguing.  My father works for the government, too.

Course, I bet what he does is infinitely more interesting just because of circumstance.  Currently, he's a cook for the cons who fight fires in California's breadbasket.

I'm totally embracing this aspect of his career history.  It's building our characters and making us stronger.

Of course, it also helps me do what Hoopla describes above:  drink moar...etc.

your father works for the Pentagon?

and you are trying to forget this rather than exploit it?

Some yahoo yelled at me, saying 'GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH', and I thought, "I'm feeling generous today.  Why not BOTH?"

My father blows up bridges, floods towns and has secretly expanded the power of the Environment Agency to the degree that they can walk onto 1/3 of the private land in the country without a warrant or the owners permission.

My father works in the White House.



But can he blow up bridges?

No, so there.

No, he tries to blow up the universe looking for the Higgs boson.
