Beware of the way you mock your parents...you may become them

As a teenager I frequently noticed that my dad would fall asleep at the kitchen table before going to bed. When I started dating my wife she noticed it too. Then for a while as a young married couple, because we lived far from my folks, she began taking photo's of my dad sitting at the table, fast asleep. 
Last night, at the end of a long day of work and cold weather, while I sat in front of the fire listening to a podcast, my bride took this photo of me, fast asleep.  
That which I've seen in my dad, now shows up in me.
