Toan is stored in the balls

By anonymous - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - Australia

Today, my Dad's banjo arrived, as part of his mid-life crisis. It would be fine if he could play it but unfortunately he's tone deaf. He hasn't stopped playing it for the last 4 hours. FML

Wait until dad goes to the bathroom, then cut the strings, then run away. When he comes looking act all sorry, even work up a tear or two to show dad how bad you feel that he was sold a defective banjo. Something like this: DAD..."Look what happened to my banjo! Do you know anything about this?" YOU... "No dad. OH MY GOD, what happened? Dad, those bastards sold you a defective banjo (sniff, sniff). I saw a show about the banjo scammers on 60 minutes (small sobbing cry). You had better return that right away. Besides dad, you're wayyy to intelligent and talented to play the banjo. I think a man of your abilities needs to do something cool, like model ship building. You would rock at that!"

At least he doesn't sing? Tough break, OP. Maybe you should look into a good pair of noise-reducing headphones. Or get him to play outside...

That's not that bad, some dad's do a lot worse things in their midlife-crisis. Let him have some fun, it'll end some day. Some day..

Well, maybe if he keeps practicing he'll eventually get better?

Actually a guy on YouTube managed to play a slayer song on a banjo. So, it wouldn't be bad if he could play some cool songs.
