      I know you’re making a joke, but it’s not funny specifically because of what a piece of shit his dad actually was.

      In Jonny Kim’s senior year in high school, his dad died in a shootout with the police after the pistol whipping his mom and repeatedly threatening to kill her (in front of their high school age son). This dude joined the Navy a few months later, in large part to get away from an traumatic home life.
