Anyway,it's so popular,they're making it into a T.V. show with William Shatner as the Curmudgeonly father.

William Shatner to Star in "Sh*t My Dad Says" TV Pilot

I can see Shatner doing the role...

Doesn't everyone have somebody they can relate this father to? When I read the quotes from the site, I imagined my uncle saying this. My uncle is nearly 70 now and has mellowed quite a bit but in his younger days, he rode in the PRCA, Marine Corps SGT.

my uncle to my cousin: you want a tattoo?...why don't you just have them write "****-me" on your forehead!

my uncle to my cousin: Why are you wearing shorts to drive the tractor?...get off that tractor and go put on some long pants. What do you think this is, a mother-******* vacation at the Tropicana?

my uncle to my cousin: well I'll be ****** to tears!...well, I don't know if you can really be ****** to tear, but get over there and get that job done right!

MY step-grandfather was wounded in WWII and had one hand permanently gnarled.He also bore a striking resemblance to Jack Elam in his older years.I can envision him saying any or all of these.

"A mule kicked Uncle Bob once. Broke his ribs. He punched it in the face.. My point? You have an ingrown f*cking toenail. Stop bitching."

“Yes I got him a gift. He had a kidney stone. You pee a rock through your pecker, you deserve more than just a pat on the f*cking back."

"I don't need more friends. You got friends and all they do is ask you to help them move. F*ck that. I'm old. I'm through moving shit."

"Son, no one gives a shit about all the things your cell phone does. You didn't invent it, you just bought it. Anybody can do that."

"Does anyone your age know how to comb their f*cking hair? It looks like two squirrels crawled on your head and started f*cking."

After the great role Shatner played on Boston Legal, this should be as much fun if not more! God Bless Denny Crane!

Missed your original thread, but thanks for the link to his tweets. What a funny old b@st@rd!

Despite the scurrility, you can't help but admire his attitude. Made me smile.
Too much could become boring, profanity loses it's shock effect when there is a constant stream of it.

I sure hope this is going to be an HBO or Showtime production. I just read the first twenty posts or so on the twitter link, but it seems impossible to edit for network TV.

Stacy Keach already did this role on Titus back in the 90s

My dad once told me he went to the doctor and complained about knee pain..THe doctor said that "it is a sign of old age"...My father said without missing a beat: "that's a bunch of bull****, the other one is just as old as that one and it doesn't hurt at all!"
