You know, I'm starting to think there are a f-ton of strippers on fark. With all the daddy issues and all. Sheesh.

part of the problem: This may be the only intelligent thing I ever say in the internet.
If you have kids: You will never know how valuable a daddy in the middle of chaos really is to your kids. Be strong. Quit drinkin', learn to put up with the old lady, do whatever you have to do because that little crumb cruncher thinks you are Superman and all you have to do to earn the cape is just keep loving them when the rest of your life sucks.



Rock. On.

Dad died when I was 3. What the hell am I supposed to say?

invisbob: We run a business together.

He's a pain in the ass to work for.



Is he good, though? Does he get results? Is the business more successful because he's a pain in the ass? Or is he a pain in the ass with no benefit?

Kind of scary, actually. Every year that goes by I look more like my dad.

Could have done a lot worse.

There's a definite resemblance.


I once almost scared my aunt to death, I think. She hadn't seen me in years and the first time I saw her (several years after my father's death) she turned pale and couldn't speak for a good minute. She really thought I was my father for a tiny moment.

No, just a depressingly high number of people who are horrible to the children they helped create. Here at the group home where I work, about 90% of them were abused either physically or sexually by their parents. It happens way more often than those of us with good parents like to admit to ourselves.

I begged you to stay with us when I was 7 and you did and you spent most of your life in Hell for me. Don't go back to mom. Move on. Find love. Marry and even have more children. Visit Ireland. Make a workshop in your garage. Build that car you wanted to. SEE A DOCTOR. See the USS Missouri. Plant more vegetable gardens. Go to the drag races more. I'm sorry for leaving the bread open after making a sandwich. I'm sorry for leaving for Ohio with a man I didn't love. I'm sorry for planning with you that we weren't sure you'd be alive to do. they tell people to never do that... and I knew it... But I had no idea what else to do. Don't ignore your symptoms. It wasn't heartburn. It wasn't back pain. It was motherfarking silent heart attacks, dad. 20 years worth. Don't smoke so much. Don't drink so much coffee. Your heart tissue is dying. More and more, every year you are being taken from us and we have absolutely no idea. you have 2 grandsons you will never hold. They look just like you. How am I supposed to tell them about you? How am I supposed to describe your gravel lined laughter, the jangle of keys against your hip when you walked, the smell of pall mall, yuban and peanut butter sandwiches. I love you. I loved you even when I railed at you for embarrassing me. I loved you even when I isolated myself in teenage ego. I loved you even when you were drinking and depressed. I loved you even when I was drinking and depressed. I loved you through everything. Always. And still do. Will forever. 8 years and I still wait for a phone call saying you're still alive, it was all just a practical joke... or you went into the witness protection program, or you were a double agent that went rogue. Anything. Anything but this.

He's been dead for 6 years now, so "Gaahhhhhh! Don't eat my brains!"
 
2012-06-17 01:14:17 AM
If you hadn't farked off with that young chick from work and left the country to escape any responsibility to your wife and kids, including me at 4 years old, then maybe on Fathers Day you'd be getting a nice card and gift from your two grandsons.

Now that I am a father, I cannot imagine abandoning my kids in the way you abandoned us.

Enjoy your day and continue being ignorant of all you have and will continue to miss out on.
 
2012-06-17 01:14:36 AM
As i watch my baby son and daughter asleep, I will surely tell him in the morning that I love him and that I hope is heart holds out for another few days in time to see his grandchildren.

Very successful. He never graduated high school. Never had a decent job but started selling guns. awesome job. Tomorrow is our tea party event. (facebook rockford tea). we are expecting about 500-1000 people.
bulletstopguns.com is our site.

We would've had a lot of fun. You're in the moment before I get there. Rock on.

Thanks for not letting me watch 2010 in the theater without seeing 2001 first.
 
2012-06-17 01:16:20 AM
Thanks for introducing me to Douglas Adams and making me play with cars. Guys think I'm awesome because of things you taught me. Also, thanks for teaching me that I don't need a man in my life because I am capable of doing anything a man can do.
 
2012-06-17 01:16:37 AM
Dad,

Why the hell did you kill yourself?

It'll be 10 years in December and the questions remain unanswered.

I love you but damn, why did you do that?

Love,

Danny

My real father died in prison while I was a toddler. My stepfather needs to die alone.
 
2012-06-17 01:19:43 AM
'Go Fark yourself, you piece of shiat'.

That pretty much covers it.
 
2012-06-17 01:20:37 AM
batcookie: I'm seriously depressed over how many of you never knew the joy of having a good man for a father.

This..

I really disliked my dad as a kid, he was such an asshole. And then I grew up and I became just like him. He wasn't an asshole, I was an idiot. We have had our hard-headed standoffs since I became an adult but we have worked it out, and I realized he is a very good man. I'd like to be half the man he is, some day.

I'm sad for all you farkers who had actual shiatty childhoods. I really am. I don't know what it is like.
 
2012-06-17 01:20:45 AM
You did your best. and for that I am eternally grateful. May you rest in peace.
 
2012-06-17 01:23:04 AM
"Eat Less Bacon".

Drink less, be nicer to my mom, I guess that would be about it. Though I'm hammered now, so I guess that doesn't say much for my lesson-learning ability. Died when I was five. Screwed me for the next 30 years.

I know you've been retired for a year and because of it you've kinda let yourself go, but it's summer... wear some farking deodorant
 
2012-06-17 01:25:55 AM
Thanks, Dad. Love ya.
 
2012-06-17 01:26:06 AM
Wish you hadn't died when I was five, but it's cool you did when you were beating the hell out of Mom and me.
 
2012-06-17 01:27:12 AM
Why the fark didn't you tell me you flew the hump in the war.
 
2012-06-17 01:27:22 AM
Don't know what I'd say. He beat me everyday as a kid (broke my nose on the way to church once when I was 8 and broke some ribs for not doing my math homework when I was 10) but that's how kids were raised back then. He also has spent his entire life savings bailing me out of jail and paying for lawyers for me since then. Everytime I screwed up he was there for me. And trust me, it was a weekly occurrence. He also adopted me when I was an infant.

The guys I work with hear my stories and can't believe I still talk to him (cause of the beatings), but I love and respect him and wouldn't want any other father. He spent 36 years teaching handicapped children. The only times I ever saw him cry was the day I left for basic training and when one of his students passed away. He's been a damn good father and has gone above and beyond what most parents would put up with in my 42 years (he bailed me out of jail AGAIN last year).

I think he knows that I love him. We don't say stuff like that to each other, but I'm pretty sure he knows it. Hell, when he had to drive me every month for 5 years to see my parole officer (1 hour round trip) we never spoke in the car, but one time some guy cut him off as he was driving his (at the time 34 year old son) and I jumped out and beat that guy with a hammer. Of course he had to pay my bail again.

Love ya Dad!

And I promise to make better decisions. And thanks for all the help/time with your grandaughter. You're a special man.
 
2012-06-17 01:28:52 AM
NO! THATS NOT TRUE! THATS IMPOSSIBLE!!!
 
2012-06-17 01:30:07 AM
It's okay. You tried your best.
 
2012-06-17 01:30:35 AM
Can I borrow some money?
 
2012-06-17 01:31:48 AM
These are your granddaughters. Dad. They have our dimples!

I disowned my father for being a piece of shiat.

So I have nothing to say.
 
2012-06-17 01:36:44 AM
All I am getting is a rage-flavored word-salad, but imagine a punch would sum up my feelings nicely.
 
2012-06-17 01:37:16 AM
Thanks for putting my father into perspective for me guys. I thought he was ok, turns out things could have been worse. I just texted him, even though i know he's asleep, cuz i want it to be the first thing he sees in the morning. Who knows, i might get into a car accident on the way home from work, and well ... that'd suck if he didn't know.
 
2012-06-17 01:37:37 AM
Big brother and I miss you terribly, but we're hanging in there and it's starting to look a little 'up' again at last. We're gonna be ok, because you raised us right and taught us well.

(Same thing I'd say to mom) :(
 
2012-06-17 01:39:00 AM
My bio dad was creamed by a truck when I was 3, then my mother married a monster who physically and emotionally abused her and us.

fark Father's Day.
 
2012-06-17 01:39:12 AM
You ignored your kids to cater to the wishes of my useless hypochondriac mother who spent my childhood parked in front of the TV when she wasn't lecturing us about how hard she worked. You ignored me so in the future I will ignore you. The two of you deserve each other yes, but bear in mind that I won't lift a finger for either of you. What goes around comes around assholes
 
2012-06-17 01:39:18 AM
I became successful despite everything you and mom did to constantly tear me down. There's a reason that didn't happen until you were both dead and I finally realized my life belonged to me. Why do you think I moved across the ocean? To get as far away as I could from any reminders of the two of you.

Very successful. He never graduated high school. Never had a decent job but started selling guns. awesome job. Tomorrow is our tea party event. (facebook rockford tea). we are expecting about 500-1000 people.

That's awesome. That's the good kind of pain in the ass.

A Tea Party gun event? Frightening. The Occupy movement should do gun events and balance out the universe.

Thread hijack. I just went shooting for like the third time in my life and had a blast. What's a good, fun, simple, not too expensive handgun for an occasional target shooter?
 
2012-06-17 01:43:55 AM
13 and a half months ago, I called my dad to say hi. We hadn't spoken in at least 2 years, and not more then 4 times in the last decade. He was high and didn't know who I was. I told him I'd call back in the morning. I didn't call back.

13 months ago, a detective called me to identify his body. He had hung himself.

So, I guess all I can say is I really wished I had called him back.

Pfffft, try getting a tension arm off a car as a woman, that's something very few women can do.

Its fine to admit you can't do something then watch if someone else does it to find a work around later. It doesn't make you a weak person to ask for help is probably the best thing my dad taught me. Really I just think he was getting free labor out of me "hold this wrench right 'chere while I turn the ratchet..." Cheapskate!!!!
 
2012-06-17 01:45:15 AM
Thanks for dying with so much money!
 
2012-06-17 01:46:12 AM
Thanks for abandoning us. My life is better without you.
 
2012-06-17 01:46:17 AM
Well, he was looking out for number #1 long before the 1970s bestseller. No liquor, cigarettes, getting plenty of excercise, hoarding money, ect.

After the massive stroke, he would carry on about relatives who were dead for 20 years. While wearing an adult diaper. And babbling about vacationing in Phoenix, AZ.

So much for that master plan.

After four years, cremated. Some 20 people showed up. Most left after the free sandwiches.

Party on.
 
2012-06-17 01:46:18 AM
Thanks for having sex that one night, but in the end - you were really a colossal asshole.
 
2012-06-17 01:47:03 AM
Please stop sucking my girlfriends' cocks.
 
2012-06-17 01:47:16 AM
Ouze:

So, I guess all I can say is I really wished I had called him back.


(hug)

i forgive you but i damn wish i had a dad there for me growing up.
