Good, bad, or somewhere in-between, parents are the main reason for the ways in which we’re all slightly f-ed up today. It is often one of the hardest things we have to reconcile when we grow up and realize this, and for many, one of the easiest ways to start is via humor. Try as we might, we’re not always going to see the changes we want in our family, so we need to have our entertaining backup options. 

This seems to be the point of view taken by Austin, who decided to take to TikTok to come to terms with his dad’s homophobia. His simple solution came in the form of a make up session, that seemed to go swimmingly. It’s fair to say that many viewers were shocked by his innovative form of revenge, but they were also supportive. You’ve got to make up for all that trauma somehow.
