Fathers are known for their sense of humor, which is usually so bad that you can’t help but roll your eyes while laughing at the same time. These text messages are proof that anything can happen when the person in charge of texts is your father. You might end up laughing, crying, cringing, or just plain old smiling, but you’ll never walk away bored. Here are some of the best dad texts that people have uploaded to share with the world!
Approved by Dad
Most parents wouldn’t love their children talking back to their teachers, but sometimes the responses are so amazing that they’re forced to salute their kids for their wit.
This dad was obviously quite proud of his child for this witty reply, even ensuring that his child knew that there wouldn’t be a punishment. We wouldn’t even be surprised if the only topic at the dinner table that night was this very incident!
Moth Attack
Most people have a love/hate relationship with insects, but they learn to deal with them as they grow up. However, as soon as they step back into their parents’ house, all they want is for their dads to protect them.
This one’s bath time might have been interrupted by a moth, but the person to have the last laugh was their dad. After all, this moth might go away, but this dad’s sense of humor never will!
A Lesson on Slang
Parents are forever trying to keep up with the new slang that kids come up with. This dad was hit with a question far out of his league, but he proved that he’s the ultimate dad for a reason.
Move over, LMAO, and LOL, it’s the season for some new slang to make its way into the new age lingo! This dad not only won the Cool Dad award but also schooled his child. Now we know this kid will never question their dad again.
Revenge
This child decided that typing S is too mainstream and has gone with $ to add some spice to his texts. His father has seen his hand and raised the stakes, turning his text messages into art.
His use of capitalization in his texts may just be a way of being fun, or he could be trying to send a message by capitalizing ‘NO.’ Since the child hasn’t really asked for anything, maybe he’s getting some NOs in the bank for future use.
Un-Favorited
If you have siblings, your childhood was probably mostly a competition of who’s the favorite. Maybe your dad likes somebody he loves going on hikes with, or maybe there’s one kid your mom loves to dish with; there may be some sort of favoritism there.
This dad, however, has decided that playing favorites isn’t his cup of tea and decided to dislike all his kids equally. From the way the child is handling this interaction, we can safely assume that it’s a middle child. Therefore, the expectations are already super low!
No Party
This child might be every parent’s dream teen but, for this dad, he turned out to be just a big old buzzkill. When his father asked him about all the things he’d indulge in at the party, the child replied with a resounding ‘no’ to everything.
For the dad’s inner wild teen – who probably raised the roof at multiple parties – this was just unacceptable. This is an example of a great balanced relationship; sometimes you gotta stop your kids from doing things, but sometimes you gotta give them a push instead.
A Little Too Personal
This dad has decided that just a small joke here and there isn’t doing it for him, so he’s hiked up his levels and truly gone for the kill.
The child was already rolling his eyes with the gas prices comment, but the one about his mother truly sent him over the edge. The dad, though, might just be rejoicing at home with the reply. If the son is ready to move out with this joke, he might be getting a lot more of these in the future.
Birthday Presents
Getting the perfect present can be a little tricky, so this dad decided to take the direct route and ask his son outright what he wants. The response? Something that his parents can’t possibly buy!
However, because this dad can’t help himself, he proposes a dragon might be a much more realistic and better option. This son at least knows that anything less than a dragon is an acceptable option, so maybe he can ask for a crazy expensive gadget, and he might just get it!
