Everyone knows the common phrase, "dads – you can't live with em, can't live without em!" And it's obviously because of their unique sense of humor, their inability to send a text longer than the thumbs up emoji, and their strong desire to know what's happening across the street from their home. "Look honey, the neighbors sure order from FedEx a lot. And they really need to water their lawns." Dad culture holds a special place in our hearts. And even if the phrase quoted above isn't about dads at all, it still applies!

We all have a different relationship with our father, and even if we're not close to him, or he's passed away, we have memories and good times as well. My dad, for instance, is quite the character. You could easily catch him in the yard for hours, pushing wheelbarrows full of stones, shirtless, with a bandana tied around his head. He can also be caught having lunch at any of the cheap but iconic taquerias around town. His favorite shirt is probably some old Pink Floyd shirt he's had since the 70s, and you better believe he doesn't have an app on his phone that isn't Google Maps, and it's nearly impossible to reach him. Happy dads to everyone.

  • Why is this meme so accurate? Sometimes it feels like my head is going in different directions at once. My brain is on fire, and I can't see straight one thing to the other. I'm completely out of it, dissociated, and distracted, but I'm also pleasantly pleased and surprised by the throes of chaos I'm vacillating between. For every dad on the verge of a nervous breakdown, this meme is for you.
