So I just had a thought. If I ever end up being the father of children,
I will name them all after early 1980's classic video arcade games.
There
will be Zaxxon Alpert, my eldest. She will likely have Attention
Deficit Disorder, and get a lot of scorn from me while she is growing
up. As she ages I will regret being such an unattentive dick and try to
spoil her, but she will be forever bitter and never really forgive me.
We will always resent one another, I can see her happily checking me
into the old age home when I reach my geriatric years.
The
second child will of course be Q*Bert Alpert. He will be the strange
kid of the group, always jumping all over the furniture and swearing. I
think he might suffer from Tourette's Syndrome.
Our third child
will be Tempest Alpert. A fair-haired girl, Tempest will be Daddy's
Little Girl and always have me wrapped around her finger. Such a
spoiled, unappreciative girl.. she'll probably grow up to be kind of a
hot chick, but ohhh what a short temper!
Child Number Four will
likely be Galaga Alpert. Yes, this child will undoubtedly be a
homosexual, but what can you do? So long as he is happy with his life,
then his mother and I will support him.
If we can afford it, I'd
like to raise a fifth child as well, that would be Donkey Kong Jr.
Alpert. The fat kid at school who no one likes - and yet always
following in his daddy's footsteps. I'll rely on him to get me out of
jail now and then.
