This is hilarious because when my Dad was alive, a long pause like that usually meant he completely agreed but felt like a father shouldn't say that.

Yeah that's how it reads to me too. Like "nice, but don't talk like that."

Must be frustrating to have your authority figures be this inconsistent and hypocritical...I like adults to be honest and clear about what they mean.

If your parents do that kind of shit they're not good parents.
