So, my parents are kinda strict. In some ways there chill, but something that they HATE is language.  Before me and my mom saw Book Of Mormon, ALL i could think about was how my mom would freak out and say "I can't believe you would listen to such vulgar musicals!" But she didn't. She chuckled and didn't really care. 

But my dad, he's more strict about language. And were seeing a musical together in a few weeks,  which has no curses in the songs, but there are a few F words here and there. And i'm scared if he'll get mad. He's not as chill as my mom.  Any advice?

I would tell him that you have only listened to the cast album so you din't know f bombs were in there, tell him that after the show :)

Spring break is in full force.

Anyway, what show are you seeing? Ultimately, how you explain it your dad is your choice, but we can’t really offer any advice until we know the show. The dropping of the f-bomb in BOM is different then how it’s used in Hamilton then how it’s used in a weird local production of Godspell.

Bow your heaven and pray, woman. Pray to heaven for your wicked soul.

How many accounts can this troll create? Isn’t there a limit? He’s created a new account every day for a few days now with these annoying postings.
