Dad Awards

To truly capture the “Spirit of the Dad” what are some achievements you think make a True Dad?

  1. “Fixed it!” - complete an entire home improvement project in a single trip to the hardware/lumber store.

  2. “Gotcha!” - demonstrate the Dad Reflex by catching a toddler seconds before disaster.

  3. “That’s my boy/girl!” - get in trouble with the SO when your son/daughter picked up a bad habit of yours, or develops your bad sense of humor/pranks.

  4. “Here boy!” - develop a stronger bond with the new family pet than any of the kids who wanted it in the first place.

  5. “Office time” - spend at least 30 minutes in the bathroom hiding from the kids/spouse even though you don’t actually have to go to the bathroom.

  6. “Blame it on the dog” - make at least one passenger choke on a fart in the car.

  7. “Really?” - have a kid/spouse completely buy in to one of your bad dad jokes. (I had my wife convinced for nearly an hour that the rumble strips on the side of the highway was called the “Brailleway” and it was for blind drivers)

  8. “But the kids will love it!” - use the kids as justification to purchase something that you’ve always wanted.

  9. “Try it, you’ll like it!” - introduce a kid into your hobby as an excuse to go out more often than the spouse would usually tolerate.

  10. “Saved the day!” - prevent a meltdown by fixing the favorite toy that seemed completely destroyed.

  11. “Animal surgeon” - conduct ‘surgery’ to patch up a favorite stuffed animal.

  12. “Here, let me show you” - take over a video game under the guise of showing the kid how to play.

Thank you

This isn't a dad joke. This is a thank you to everyone on this subreddit. 6 weeks ago the love of my life broke things off with me due to factors attributed to my mental health (which i didn't tell her about because she is struggling with uni and i didn't want her to worry) and I've been having an extremely difficult time coming to terms with it. She's falling for another guy while I've been self destructing to the point where she never wants to talk to me again. But i found this subreddit today, the jokes are so stupid and funny that for the first time since before the breakup, I've laughed and it was genuine. Thank you so much for your stupid jokes. You've saved my life as far as I'm concerned. I still have a long way to to, but this subreddit is definitely going to get me through it. Thank you 💖
