Your best (or worst) "dad" moments
 

Every one of us over a certain age has had them, that moment when you either realised you were "that age" or said or done something and then realised how like your parents you sounded. Any examples?

(Obviously, dad moments refer to ladies too, I just don't think they call them mom moments do they?)

I think one of mine is looking at the X Factor and saying "Oh that's not music. In my day people wrote their own songs...." GAAAHHHH! Where's me walking stick? Fetch me pipe!

Browsing through a People magazine while waiting in the check out line and realizing I don't know who half of the celebrities profiled in it are.

Wow. Just wow.

What are you Wowing about young lady?

Over The HIll Banter? The geriatric corner? ! I can smell the bengay.

All the time and i f*ckin hate it!

I can hear my grandma and mother's words coming outta my mouth
"this is why we can't have nice things" "Money doesn't grow on trees" "oh sweet father"

All their complains have become my complains and i end up unconsciously saying the same trigger words as them.

i knew i was old when one day at work i was talking with a group of co workers my age about f*cking traffic routes while there was a group of younger coworkers talking about recent hookups.

that's the moment it became apparent to me i got old ppl priorities now.

I'm 21 but the other day someone said i seemed dadly, i was quite cool with it

You just be quiet, young lady. You're not too old to go over my knee, you know! ;)

Says Miss 'Wrong side of 30'

:laughing: Good example, BF !

I realized I was an inadequate oldie the day my son wanted a partner to play Halo with. My on-screen character was a hopeless drunk - staring at the floor, staring at the sky and stumbling at every step. After ten mins the experiment was abandoned, and I was never invited to play again!

When my dad used to make duck noises after he farted, to blame the duck.

;)

Kids & their fashion. New Era caps with the stickers still on. Huaraches. Them trousers that sag in the middle and look like when a baby has shat themselves in their nappy and the weight of the faeces pulls the nappy down a bit.

See people guilty of all the above and think "we didn't dress like that when I was younger".

Also seeing kids in pubs and thinking what the fuck are you doing in here. That was me once.

I live close to a high school and some of the kids I see walking to/from school look like they should be in elementary school. And each year it get's worse.

Now you da old dude at the pub...:laughing:

Same here. Some of them look about 7 or 8.

:(

^:x ;)

When hot women at bars call me sir. I just hope they have Daddy issues that I could help them with.

They don't. I need a nap.

Sorry sir did you say something?

I said go fetch me a switch so I can beat you with it.

Hot women in bars? Maybe after a few rounds.

Okay Fred.. I must know. What is your criteria for hot women?

lol im trying to imagine that scenario :p:

"Ok mom, he's right there! shoot him, SHOOT HIM! NOO! you hit the inventory button! NO! now you unequipped the weapon! Dammit mom!" :mad:

When my daughter was 4 i remember explaining to her the things they use on Beyblade (A kid's cartoon) was sorta like a dreidel and she actually rolled her eyes at me and said, "They're mini robots dad" :rolleyes:

So confident yet so wrong~

I'm all for Brazilian and Italian women.

Wow! Getting rolled eyes from a four-year-old is quite a burn ! I bet it made you laugh.

I had no idea that you had a daughter, BF; congratulations. And maybe you had no idea that I´m a dad, not a mom.

When I was at a party at a friend's new house and we got into a conversation about his rafters, I knew I was officially a grownup.

Norman truss?

Today's dad moment. Just browsed through Batlord's Death Metal Division voting poll and didn't recognize a single band.

oh my bad :p:

All this time i thought you were a female cause of your username

Thnx, she's 5 now, her name is emily.

^^^^^

Adorable!

Thnx :)

I'm too cool to have dad moments of my own, but I constantly point out my bf's dad-like tendencies, ex: parking in the very back of the parking lot despite there being plenty of open spots, trying to be handy and fix things but making them worse, etc.

So cute. Love the frog on the t-shirt! Also love the expression on her face, it says "Yeah? So?" :D Lucky man, BF!

Accurate. she's quite problematic. :p:

^ :laughing: Don´t feel too left out, Ms Pigeon - your time will come soon enough!

^ Thanks for sharing the picture: your daughter is a real sweetie, "cute as a button" as they say.

My username was supposed to be a clever reduction of listener-holic, but I was trying a little too hard I guess. :(

Dad moment: you´re the only one in the room who remembers the day when John Lennon was murdered.

Oh, now i see what you were going for.. yea, i initially didn't get it. :p:

It's never too late. Let's start you off with something light...
