Dads are the unsung heroes of the world. While moms may be the ones on the ground doing the day-to-day when mom goes out and gets her time, dad steps in .
We are the ones who have to pick up the slack and make sure the kids are fed, bathed, entertained, and at school on time. Do they always succeed? No. But, they try their best . One thing is for sure though, dads sure do know how to make us laugh. Whether it’s awkward dad jokes that only they find funny, or making fun of mom to get some of those easy laughs, one thing is for sure: dads are always ready to make a joke.
So go through these hilarious tweets to give yourself a little laugh, we certainly all need one.
She gets it.
Whenever our kids find something they love, they want to have it more and more. Like, when we make them an expert grilled cheese . However, they won’t admit they want more, so they test us and say we can’t make it as perfect as the last. Now, they get two. Despite what you might think about kids, they are smarter than we give them credit for.
Total dad win.
When it comes to keeping the kids in bed, all we have to do is put a little bit of fear in them. Telling them that their mom will be upset if they get out of bed or miss bedtime is all it takes sometimes. After all, nine times out of ten mom wears the pants in the house, right? Invoking her name is all a dad needs to do to get it done.
Totally burned.
Not for nothing, sometimes, our kids burn us twice as hard as we burn them. Like, this dad who tried to make a hella good ’90s joke on their daughter and instead got totally owned for being old. Kids, they always know just what to say to make you feel terrible about yourself (or just very, very old).
Why is it this way?
Is there a reason why all of our kids think that cups belong on the very edge of our table? I walk by every coffee table, countertop, or even in the kitchen and every single cup is about to fall right onto the floor. Also, JUST PUT YOUR STUFF IN THE SINK.
At least he’s making money.
Some kids go into business in weird and strange ways. It seems as though as dads, we aren’t always prepared for what is to come from their lives. Sometimes it’s Call of Duty, other times it is wine. Whether the case, I’m sure they are enjoying themselves.
Dads unite!
Whenever one dad is getting yelled at for embarrassing their daughters, another dad has to jump in and make sure that they know they are not alone. And, sometimes that means finishing the lyrics to songs they are belting out. Hey, whatever works to make dads feel less alone is always a good tactic I say.
True story.
No matter what time mom says the kids have to be at school, we know that we will always be late. Whether it’s our adult or the kid’s fault, we’re always going to be late. Don’t tell mom. As I said, she’s the scarier of the two all the time, so sometimes these white lies are perfectly okay.
Kids, they ruin everything.
Whenever you tell kids about food and what goes into it, we can be sure that it’s going to make us all sick. Don’t discuss food with your kids. Just lie and say it’s all meat. Every time I try to get into the details and see their faces twist in disgust, I can’t help but regret all my life choices.
Someone get him a calendar.
Unfortunately, not having a calendar means that you may accidentally forget to drop your kids off at school. Double-check and make sure you know what day it is—you never want to be the dad who forgets. Last thing a dad needs is to get told off for this too.
They never stop coming.
As your kids get older, in school, things get more and more tricky, especially, if your kid thinks that they are the class clown. You can expect to get one email a day, if not more. Be prepared! At least you know that they’re making an impression, right? That has to be something.
Welcome to the party.
If your kids get tall enough to reach the light switches, you should come up with a good story about why they can’t be touching them. Or else, you need sunglasses to make sure you don’t go blind.
That kid is going places.
Whenever your kids want dessert, make sure they finish their food. But, be prepared that you will get a story and excuse—plus an anatomy lesson about how they have two stomachs and one is just for dessert. To be honest, even as an adult I tell myself that exact same thing, so I can’t blame them too much for doing this, if I’m being honest.
True bonding.
Some kids know how to bond with their fathers and the way to do that is through fart stories. The way to get their dad’s phone is simply to make sure they can educate themselves on animal farts. Dads always want to know, too.
Dad fail.
Note to self: when kids want to tell us secrets, tell them no. Or, just don’t let them touch our face. The last thing we need is for them to touch our face with their poop hands. Yikes. If this isn’t a tale of caution, I don’t know what is.
Lessons need to be taught.
Technology always trumps things for kids. They pick up on iPads and TV, but can’t figure out the simple things in life. Note to all parents: teach them how to eat before they know how to work your iPhone. Otherwise, it’s all downhill from there.
