Your Parents Are An Interracial Couple Day!
It's been a long while since you congratulated them for their bravery.
Tonight, when you've all finished dinner, and your Dad says to your mom, "Black lady, nice food."
And your mom says, "Only the best, white motherfucker."
Say to the both of them, "I hope you've saved some room for dessert."
Then give them the cake you spent all day cooking from scratch.
They'll read the writing on the cake in unison. "Courage?"
Say, "I made it in honor of you guys not being the same race but falling in love anyway. It's a strawberry shortcake."
Your Mom will burst into tears. "I didn't think you'd noticed."
"That you guys aren't the same race? Sure I did. That's what everyone's always spray-painting our house about, right?"
Now you'll see that your Dad is crying. "No," he'll say. "How hard it was to pull this off. We thought you didn't care. I mean it was really, really hard."
"I know," you'll say. You're going to start getting a little annoyed now. "That's why I made you the cake? Hello?"
Your mom will get a hold of herself. "It's just kind of like that movie about that guy. The one who struggled."
Your dad will smash his fist into the table and say that that movie sucked. They'll start fighting again and you'll run from the table and hide in your room. The fighting will turn them both on and they'll go upstairs and make forbidden love. When you come downstairs in the morning, they won't have touched the cake. But they will have conceived your future baby sister.
Happy Your Parents Are An Interracial Couple Day!
