My dad the Friendly Creep!

So I’m sitting in my parent’s bed watching "Leap year" with my Dad.
His phone dings.
"Hmm that’s interesting" he muses
"Who is it Dad"
"Idk. It says "Hi is this josh? -Megs"
""Hmm."
I have by now lost interest. Silly me thinks my father will ignore it or say "No, wrong number."
But of course my over friendly Father has other plans....
He begins to text back, saying out loud what he types“No this is.."
"Dad! Don't give them your name. You don't know who it is."

Why on Earth is the 18 year old having to remind the 43 ( 44?) year old about safety???? Anyway...
"Oh... I will just give my first name."
“No dad..."
" Fine.."
Once more he begins to text, saying out loud what he is typing
" No this is not Josh, Who is this?"
"DAD!!!!!!!!!!"
"What?!?!?! I want to know who it is."
"Well obviously it's "Megs".... BUT that's such a stalker thing to do!!!"
I maybe then made some snide remark about him being born in the late 60's making him feel the need to have the spirit of free love, peace and open friendly-ness to strangers....
But my remark made no difference.
He asked her who it was anyways..... My Dad the Friendly Creep.....
