papa's day


With Father’s Day right around the corner, it’s time to start thinking about what to get the old man for his big day. Ties - lame. Sweaters - lame. Bacon-Of-The-Month Club - actually very cool. Puppy Dog Boxers - barf. Father's Day and Mother's Day, exist for two reasons. 1: To sell greeting cards and gifts. 2: To remind people to appreciate people in their lives that no one should need to be reminded to appreciate. I mean, c'mon. If someone has to tell you to love your mother and give her flowers and tell her she's a great mom, you are an idiot. She's your mom. She gave birth to you, and raised you, and refrained from killing you at any point during your young life. Rest assured, there were many times she wanted to. And she didn't. She is to be honored and admired.
Likewise with dads. They spent their whole lives loving you and caring for you and playing trucks and trains and dolls and house and catch with you. Put up with your grumpy Mom, who is grumpy because she has whiny children at her beckoning call. That's true love. And you need Hallmark to tell you one day a year to tell the guy you love him and buy him a card and an Amazon gift certificate? You suck. Gifts suck really. Be creative this "holiday" technically Fathers day is NOT a holiday. I mean Holidays are religious and holy. fathers day... commercial.Give your dad the perfect gift, a 6 pack of his favorite beverage and a day spent with his wonderful family.
