I asked my Dad to watch Avatar with us the other day and he said "No, no, no, I'm not watching that Japanese Shit," while he waves his hands around. Why he thought it was an anime... I don't know.

He said he thought the whole thing was animated.
I've never really tried to show him an anime before, but he's already convinced all of it is stupid. Anything that has a cartoon look, he automatically thinks is anime, and will reject watching it. He's not a very cuddly person, so I couldn't just ask him all nice if he wanted to watch even just a piece of an anime movie/episode. If I ever manage to make him watch
something, he usually sits for 5 minutes then gets up and says "Well, I think I've seen enough TV for today."
Too bad

What's funnier is my mom is now convinced that I looove yaoi (not that much). But the funny part is that she pronounces it "yow-way." Sometimes it'll just come up and she'll say, "Oh no, I know your secret. Don't pretend to hide it. I know you love yow-way." But she says it so seriously, so I just laugh.
If my mom was dead tired and in a good mood, I could probably convince her to watch Miyazaki or something. But that's not often, that she's in a good mood
and tired. And my dad hates anything cartoon-y, so I basically have no hopes of convincing my parents to watch anime. XD
