Happy Father's Day!

Although this doesn't seem like the Father's Day thread that I remember, the one where Beth P. told me to mow the @#!&%*!-ing lawn!

Which somehow reminds me that I forgot to that other new dad, crossword Matt.

mention

oh yeah, and skot

and, god bless him, xhuxk

thanks, k.

You're quite welcome.

Sorry that I also forgot Michael Jones, PJ Miller and, on this side of the Atlantic, gypsy mothra.

I want to be a dad someday. Have a good day dudes!!!!

Thanks Ken, I got a great present when the kiddo went to London, had a fantastic time for a month, then came home safe. Getting breakfast in bed tomorrow will be nice too, though.

Happy Solidarity Day to the ILXor dads out there. Hit one golf ball or something.

bbq dudes

Hmm, yeah, maybe I'll grill something, but fuck, it's hard to get out there and fan burning charcoal when it's already 94 degrees.

Happy fathers day to all you dads and dads-to-be!

Thanks everybody! I hope all your days has been as cool as mine.

HEY I HAZ A SURFIT
(okay i get it, i'll stop talking about my kids now, h f d y'all)

Happy Father's Day, ILXor dad guys!

To all My Fellow New Dads and New-Dads-On-Deck!

{checks calendar - confirms state of daddyhood for past 21 years - mopes}

LOOT:

I got
* book from mother-in-law
* new Converse sneakers
* card from Beeps that begins with "Although we've only known each other for a few months..."
* hardcover bound book of Beeps' first three months, as told in pictures.

I could sleep on the futon in the nursery for the next year for stuff like that.

Awwwwww!

happy father's day to all you dadly ILXors!

I got John Peel's auto/biography, a lap desk for late night reading/sudoku-ing in bed, and the most amazing, wonderful card I could ever imagine from the kiddo. I'm not much of a cryer, but this had me on the wibbling edge. Mostly too personal to share, except for "Thank you for your crazy music, even the stuff that makes my ears ring." What a great kid.

When I went into the 'Ling's room this morning, there was a bag on the floor with an envelope on it marked "Daddy." Inside the bag were a new PS2 game, a really nice shirt, and a card asking what kind of stone-fruit tree I'd like in the back yard. I picked the envelope up, and asked him "Hey, what does this say?" He stared thoughtfully at it for a moment, then said "...Daddy." (Note: he is 27 months old.) I was filled with pride.

I got a cake from which the sweeties on top had already been eaten, a card and a home made money box - also pancakes in bed for breakfast. Hurrah!

aw my hubby got a punch in the nuts.

I was just messing with you, Hazmatt.

Sorry, Aimless, I almost mentioned you in my post but I couldn't quite remember so I erred on the side of caution.

My dad lent me some books and the boy fixed my plate for me at lunch which was cute. Today I discovered that mayonnaise on hot dogs tastes awful, llama spit tastes awful, and that shaved pomeranians look like tiny bears.

aw my hubby got a punch in the nuts.

One way of keeping him a one kid daddy. ;-)

I forgot all about it. :-( Didn't even realize it.

i was told to shut up, and was called a fucking dick and a fucking jerk (by my wife, not the baby). happy first father's day! I'm sure that once the kid starts talking he'll be saying similar.

He'll probably just post about it on a message board somewhere.

Reviving this a bit early not only to wish all the dads on here well -- and all those wishing their dads well in general -- but to say that if you could spare my dad some good thoughts it'll be appreciated: he's going in for emergency hip replacement surgery in a few hours. Like the link says, I'm sure he'll be fine but I hope it's not too surprising I'm feeling a little jumpy right this second! Please do feel free to leave him any well wishes on that blog entry and he'll read them when he gets a chance.

Aw, Nedders, here's some sympathetic pats on the shoulder for you. *pat, pat*

Happy Father's Day, everybody. Best wishes to Ned's dad.

I hope you like this awesome tie, pops. The pattern is WOVEN not printed.

£23 tie, he better like it!

aww stay strong submarine man. im sure he'll be a-okay, ned.

hey does schwantz get double presents because hes got twinnies?

beatrice's daycare gave pp a scribble crayon drawing that she did with "happy father's day" written on it. guess what i got for mother's day from daycare? NOTHING
last year at a different daycare pp got donuts for fathers day. guess what i got for mother's day from daycare? NOTHING
WTFISUPDAYCARES???? is he going to get a freakin trophy next year? damn!

I'm sure he'll be fine, Ned. My dad's walking around on his fourth left hip joint -- the one he was born with and three replacements. He never slows down and keeps wearing 'em out!

xpost -- obviously they hate your guts! It's probably the funny accent.

probs

yeah happy fathers day to PP!

SS you should update the Hells Kitchen thread then maybe people will like you. ;)

theres an active HK thread?? why do i find this out right after the crazy gets the boot? :(

No, there's no active thread anymore. Something happened, something terrible.

clearly

Also Happy Fathers Day to Ned's Dad and my dad and Rock's dad and all dads everywhere!

with love,

Gordon Ramsey

Thanks all. The surgery was scheduled for 4 pm my time, and I'm a touch on edge in that I've heard nothing yet, but perhaps this is for the best. No matter.

Mom called, everything fine. Yay. :-)

That's good news Ned, I'm glad it went well. Wishing him a quick and strong recuperation.

Also, happy Father's Day to all you ILX dads!

I just spotted this thread (as I spend my Father's Day on emergency projects at the office; It's horrible being here today instead of with my family, but I have little choice). Ned, I'm very glad to hear your father's surgery went well. And Happy Father's Day to all the other ILX'or dads.

I got given Monster Hunter Tri this morning. Sweet :D

listening to this ...

Managed to watch a Dad retrieve his lost daughter in a shopping centre at lunchtime. Top day to do it.

i have nightmares about situations like that.

when i came downstairs this morning my dad told me i was a good father. he lives with me. it wasn't like a fathers day surprise or anything. i knew he'd be there. but still. felt nice. he just turned 88.

❤️

Happy Father's Day to me cause some of y'all fuckers my seed
