I mean, on the range of worst possible reactions a parent might have to anything that a teenager says - this has gotta rate pretty high.
I'm imagining a scenario in which dad and son are throwing a baseball back and forth (like they have every day for over a decade), smiling, laughing. Son says "You know what dad....I'm not as a big a Red Sox fan as you".....
-at precisely this moment dear old dads face goes dull, he drops the ball mid pitch saying, "fuck it, I'm done with you", walking into the house.
That might be a smidge worse, I suppose...but really only a smidge.
(would make a great youtube video though)
