Well, with a history of alcoholism in my family, I was 16 and for some reason had a case of bud light in my room. Long story short, me and my dad got into it. We've been in little shoving matches before that, but hey, alcohol makes you stupid, so I hit him. When I realized I did, I didn't know what else to do but keep swinging, because I know I was fucked. And yeah, I was fucked, he cracked my nose with one quick left. We got close, I dragged him for a few feet in a headlock and then we spun and got a few feet between us in the living room. My mom yelled that she was gonna call the cops, so we stood for a few seconds and decided to end it there. Kinda just messed about my nose with a towel before he figured out that I was bleeding too much, and he took me out to the garage and cleaned me up, got me some ice for my nose. After that, to us it was just something to look back on and laugh about. Plus I don't ever drink in the house, anymore.

You can still see the dent in my nose in my profile picture.

There's a few stories in my family about my grandfather and great uncles fighting... plus my dad and his dad... and my dad and my uncle... and... they all have alcohol involved.

Wait... I'm starting to see a pattern here...
