Sins of the fathers ping.

[Red Badger]

My father must have eaten an elephant....

[edcoil]

Everything today is man’s (men) fault.

[org.whodat]

Simpleton inspecting his navel!

[HungarianGypsy]

That explains why I am so quirky. Sugar on tomatoes (yummy), limburger cheese and herring on Ritz crackers on New Year’s Eve...Let’s not even talk about that cheese obsession he started.

...or, "why boys favor their mothers."

but seriously: if the byline says "Worcester," you cannot believe it.

[hinckley buzzard]

This idea is almost Lamarckian, although Darwin suggested that it may be a factor. Lamarck theorized that environmental stresses could alter genetic transmission as a dynamic in evolution.

[Brad’s Gramma]

Well then. I am a Proud Sardine!

[Cisco Nix]

You are what you eat. Liberals and stories of Sodom and Gomorrah

Lysenkoism lives!

Very interesting, In my family I have seen some traits traversing the generations that would support this.

[KoRn]

My father must have ate smart asses.

I just eat Smarties. Hopefully my kids will turn out better.....

[Fresh Wind]

Well, I’m glad I’m what my father ate. If I was what I ate, I’d be dead now.

Knowing what your parents were doing before you were conceived is turning out to be important in determining what disease risk factors you may be carrying," said Oliver J. Rando...

I'm fairly certain that was having sex but I've never really asked.

[Arrowhead1952]

Well, I guess I am a hog because my dad and mom lived on pork. Homemade sausage, bacon and ham were the everyday menu.

[surroundedbyblue]

My daughter is hosed. Her dad is the biggest junk-eater I’ve ever seen.

[Hardastarboard]

Makes one wonder how this would have affected Barney Frank’s children, if he had had them.

[grey_whiskers]

Hmm, wonder what the good folks on Darwin Central make of this.

Smells reminiscent of Lysenkoism-lite (by analogy? by proxy?) from here.

Cheers!
