On the eve of a record breaking cold winter night, a wife notices her husband run to the backyard with a bucket in his hand.

She grabs a cup of hot cocoa and watches through the window as he fills the bucket up with water and races from the back of the house all the way out to the front yard and out of sight. She bundles up and goes outside to get a closer look and sees that he’s cleared the snow from the sidewalk. She watches as he takes his bucket of water and pours it out on the cold concrete. She’s puzzled for a second and then says:

Icy, what you did there.

As my 17yo son is telling me about his new girlfriend, whose name is Autumn...

I said 'be careful, she might leave you.'

He did not get it at first, so I had to repeat myself a couple of times...but I would have done that anyway.

One my Tata (grandfather) would be proud of.

I work at a workout shop called Sweat. It's bit of a janky chain store. Soon, after I started working there, I start dating a super cute kelpto who has too much fun stealing. Other than that she's perfect. Winter rolls around and she gets bored.

GF wants to rob my work.

It's like -10Β° out.

Stores closed so they don't have the heat on but, I have a set of keys. We get into an argument about it. She tells me to help her steal at least one thing from the freezing store or she'll split up with me.

I break into a cold sweat.

Reindeer pelts

A collegue of mine (a dad, recently turned 50) pulled this one off during a break at work when we were in the middle of a very heated debate about the Sami people (who some people get really pissed off at since their reindeers are everywhere and is really dangerous to car drivers during winters):

-I just heard what they actually use the reindeer pelts for.

-What's that?

-They keep their reindeers in them.

I don't know if it's just funny for us people here in the north of Sweden, but we all laughed for minutes.

He got me with a new one.

I'm back home for winter break, Dad asks if I want Philly cheese steaks for lunch. "I don't really feel like cheese steaks," to which he responds to by squeezing my leg and saying, "your right".

Dad on writing music

talking about a music assignment I had this past semester when I came home for winter break. I told my dad I had to arrange a piece of music for class.

He asked me if it was a group project. I told him no, I was the only one who worked on it.

"So that makes you the lone arranger?"

An exchange between me and my dad during an especially cold winter a few years ago.

>DAD: You know why they're saying this winter is so cold? > >ME: Why? > >DAD: 'Cause I'm so coool. > >ME: Yeah, that's why they're blaming me for global warming -- 'cause I'm so hot.

To this day I try to break out "I'm so cool" or "I'm so hot" when someone complains about the temperature being at either extreme.

More Teacherdad Material

I work as a special education teacher. I'll admit to not being a dad, but I hope I'm well on my way.

Aide: "I'm so excited (note sarcasm). I get to visit my in-laws in Missouri over winter break."

Teacherdad: I hear there are a lot of people visiting Missouri these days.

Student: "Why?"

Teacherdad: ...Missouri loves company.
