Some fine parenting, here. Kids stay up late to watch Texas Chainsaw Cheerleader Massacre, and dad wakes them up.

I've watched this video hundreds of times.

And every time it makes me laugh so hard.

Damn fine parenting, indeed. No, I'm serious. Those kids'll never forgot that, and their world will be just a little bigger and more mysterious for it.

Plus I love how the kids are rock still one second and the next they're out from under the covers and up the walls so fast that it looks spring-loaded.

See, if I just leave it on loop and keep watching I'll eventually laugh myself into a coma.

There's a higher res one somewhere that's a little longer and captures more of the older boy's "What's WRONG WITH YOU!?!" rant.

That dad's got a mean streak a mile wide. :D

I really liked the kids response "What's Wrong With YOU!"
