    Some crazy harridan did so.
    "You dirty old so-and-so! You're old enough to be her father!"
    "I AM her father!"
    We were waiting at the airport and I kissed my daughter goodbye as her boarding was announced. On the cheek, nothing untoward.

      (Please un-Australianize "harridan".  Thank you.)

      This isn't your fault or your problem, of course, but I just don't do links, Mate.  Why can't you just tell us?

    I can't do the linguistic pronunciation symbols on the tablet - upside down "e" etc.

    It's an old-fashioned term for an unpleasant woman, especially an older one, who is often angry and tells people what to do. This post was edited by Slartibartfast at November 2, 2017 9:40 PM MDT

    My mother said when she and my father were first married, people sometimes mistook them as father and daughter and made things kind of awkward. They were only two years apart but my father looks like a million years older than he is and she looks way younger than she really is.
