When men become dads, they go through a complete transformation. In part this is because now a huge part of their life is dominated by having to raise and care for a small human being. But there is a much deeper change that occurs at the spiritual level. It may take a few years to get to this point, but over time, dads slowly start to get these weird, unrelenting urges. It starts off with the desire to start grilling everything all of the time. Then, they wake up one Saturday morning and instead of sleeping in, they find themselves deciding between mowing the lawn, powerwashing the deck, or leafblowing the patio. Suddenly, historical documentaries and TV shows are the most interesting thing on TV, and you start feeling the need to constantly make puns. You get so good at making these types of jokes that your family starts rolling their eyes every time they hear one, but that only fuels your desire for wordplay. If this has happened to you, scroll down for memes to send in the family group chat that will make your wife and kids cringe.
