I don't want to make him sound like an idiot. He is a really smart guy, and he knows everything there is to know about pretty much anything, but damn, he hates spending money on shite like batteries. He is one of those guys that grew up in The Depression that is just bat-shite crazy about certain things involving money.

"Hey Dad, do you want an ice cream?"
"Ice Cream! Let me tell you about ice cream. During the depression, we used to roll a leaf up to look like a cone. We would fill it with grass and sprinkle crushed acorns on top of it. It was horrible, but we weren't throwing our money away."
"I'm paying."
"Make mine a strawberry."

My grandmother is like this. Grew up in a one room Shack with only 3 walls and 3 brothers plus her mom. She's a multi millionaire now and she will still cut mold off of bread rather than buying a new loaf and other things of that nature. I guess that shite really was just that traumatic.

You should have seen my Dad with a new sleeve of golf balls. GD panic attack.
