PEDESTRIAN.TV has partnered with 20th Century Fox to ensure Why Him?, in cinemas Boxing Day, is on your post-Xmas Day agenda. Starring James Franco and Bryan Cranston, the new flick is about an overprotective dad not getting the feels for his daughter’s Silicon Valley billionaire boyfriend – go check it out on the big screen and have a lol at someone else’s family for once.
Dads. Even though we love ’em, they sure as shit like to embarrass the hell out of us.
Between dad jokes and their inability to master the whole texting thing, communicating with them (especially in a public setting) is like taking a casual stroll through a minefield: you never know when a cringe-inducing explosion’s going to blow your pride to kingdom come.
That being said, sometimes their turn of phrases / technological fails are so fucking bad, they’re good. To celebrate their best (read: worst) side, we rounded up 15 examples of the best dad jokes, texts, sayings and interactions that’ll either make you laugh, or throw your phone at a wall in shuddering disgust.
