***THE OFFICIAL FRIDAY SILLINESS THREAD***

Posted on 06/17/2016 8:04:56 AM PDT by Lucky9teen

Since Father's Day is this weekend, here's a tribute to Dads!


Dads. They helped bring you into this world and are still trying to figure out how to navigate that world through technology — specifically smartphones.

Now they often use texts to send their corny humor and valiant attempts at communication instead of a phone call, and as they say, father knows best...

1.They dispense sage advice.

2. And help temper expectations.

3. They help calm you when you're scared.

4. And won't take any crap.

5. They'll stick by you no matter what.

6. Not to mention provide for all your needs.


Lead the Way!

Gone are the stereotypes of the previous generation's manbaby. Today's modern manbaby can balance both responsibility and being a freakishly large child in an adult's body.

Keep Me Safe, Baby

"Ugh, my dad is so embarrassing. Every time he goes to the beach, he insists on wearing his adorable little England onesie."

She Definitely Takes After Dad

As a child, young Jessica wanted nothing more than to dance, play in the sun...and discuss growth strategies for her Roth IRA.

Nothing to Smile About

The toddler in his arms is still full of naive bliss. However, his father has seen the ways of the world, and let me tell you, it's not a pretty place out there.

Dad's New Hat

Fred was always told that hanging out in the park with a baby was a good way to pick up chicks. Oddly, though, no women approached. In fact, they all ran away screaming.

Could I Get Another Driver?

It's not that I don't feel safe with this guy behind the wheel of a motorcycle. It's just, uh, that I think I left my cell phone in the house. Yeah, that's it, I'd better go get it. You go ahead without me.

Sweet Dreams, Tiny Mustachioed Man

Did you realize how much physical exertion goes into face swapping? No wonder they're all tuckered out.

Like Duck Face Like Son

Better hope there aren't any hunters around while you're making that face out on the water, or you could be in for a tragic misunderstanding.

Day at the Pool

"Dude, I just wanted to let you know that your infant son has the coolest tattoos."

Happy Birthday, Dad

How old is he turning today? Because no matter the number, the answer is certain to confuse us.

Gotcha

My father can sometimes be a handful, but give him a wooden spoon to play around with and he'll keep himself occupied for hours.

Pay Attention, Dad!

It's no use trying to get his attention. He's watching his favorite television program: That one vacuum commercial where you hear the squeaky noise.

My Dad used to pull his wingback chair up to the glass storm door and sit there cleaning his shotgun whenever one of us had a date come over; he’d keep cleaning it as he slowly explained the rules to the guy.

PING TO THE SILLINESS

Today we're honoring DADS

When meeting my then boyfriend my dad tossed him a bullet and said "You won't be able to catch the next one." #DadQuotes

I used to enjoy embarrassing my daughters by wearing socks and sandals.
