The Glue

  My family is basically a bunch of wild, live-to-laugh, loving group of relatives. Being to the family we are we have accumulated quite a list of inside jokes. They're not even necessarily funny things that happened in the family or real jokes that someone told. 90 percent of them are just random things that stuck. For example my dad over heard someone he works with getting in an argument with his daughter on the phone. The man kept repeating "really?!" as if surprised of what his daughter expected from him. That evening at the dinner table Dad decided to share this with us. Now any time anyone in the family says "really?" everyone starts saying really over and over again copying the guy from Dad's work. Like i said no real joke there. Complete random actions that crack my family up. We have thousands of them. In a way these jokes are part of the glue that keeps us together. In another way there the reason my family proudly owns the label of strange.
