Good ol' dad. You wouldn't exist if not for him. But that's not all that makes dads great. Let's not forget their penchant for terrible jokes. Combine that with technology, and you've got some text treasures on your hands. Here's just a smattering of ridiculous dad texts to honor dads for Father's Day.
It's time for everyone's favorite grown man acting like a toddler -- 'Convos With My 2 Year Old' is back with a new episode. This one is about a cookie.

Vine is a video sharing app that is great for so many reasons. Sure, it's only the first week of June, but here are the best Vines of June. Listen, we know it's crazy, but that's what this video is called
Comedian Nathan Fielder is making good use of his power on Twitter. He's been coming up with a number of pranks for people to play on their parents/friends and having them send him the often-hilarious results. This time he told his legion of followers to text their parents asking if it's illegal not to tell somebody you gave them an STD and say they were asking for a friend. These are the results. Keep fighting the good fight, Nathan Fielder.
We've said it before, and we'll say it again -- if you're going to subject yourself to the stress of parenthood, you may as well use your kids for party tricks. This dad has taught his almost two-year-old
