jerryskids 6,797 Posted June 2, 2007 My dad passed away 22 years ago. As for me, I imagine I'll get breakfast in bed from the kids, and some nooky from the wife. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brown Eyed Girl 1 Posted June 2, 2007 Mine = Conservative book: The Truth About Hillary by Edward Klein As a Dad - Maybe a card and small gift. [i'll get to read his book when he's done] My dad has this one already... he liked it. Not sure yet what I'll get my dad this year. He loves reading, classical music and good movies. Probably something related to one of those three with a card. I may bake him some cookies to add to the gift. He always loves that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sawilson 1 Posted June 2, 2007 I'll send my father a card as we aren't that close, never really have been. Then I'm having a BBQ at my house for my ex and my son's grandpa (he does a lot for my son, especially when I need someone to watch him). Will probably BBQ kabobs or something.

davebg 0 Posted June 2, 2007 Well, my dad's a real piece of sh|t, as detailed in earlier posts, so not only does he get nothing from me, but if he's invited to father's day at my sister's or her in-law's house I likely will not be showing my face. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CurlyNight's Ghost 0 Posted June 2, 2007 He isn't a step dad. Since he lives with you and so does your son most of the time I'd say that qualifies to an extent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mephisto 15 Posted June 3, 2007 My annual Father's Day thread is intended as a "dark humor" antithesis of the "feel good" crap that generally is. I actually love my father very much and there has never been a doubt in my mind that he loves all of his sons. Still, many of us come for the "Golden Age" of old school discipline. Or, maybe like in the case of DaveBG, he is just a plan horrifying human being. In any event, it's origin escapes me (details) but I just remember someone posting a horrible story about their father on or around Father's Day and I recall that I wasn't the only one who replied to it... HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!! Since then, I made a point (with only one exception I believe) to start a Father's Day thread where we all can post a horrifying story experienced with our wonderful fathers and close your post with... HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!! I'd do Mother's Day, too... but it's a LOT of work just preparing for the annual Father's Day thread. I leave the Mother's Day equivalent to someone else.
