Shit My Dad Says
By Lindsey
 
It's either a sign of human progress or the end of days. A man known as Justin has started posting his father's random pronouncements on Twitter, and nearly half a million people have found this interesting enough to follow him. His profile reads, "I'm 29. I live with my 73-year-old dad. He is awesome. I just write down shit that he says". But Justin's dad's words really are awesome. Check out these veritable pearls thrown before the swine of the social media sty:
 
"Does anyone your age know how to comb their fucking hair? It looks like two squirrels crawled on their head and started fucking."

"The dog don't like you planting stuff there. It's his backyard. If you're the only one who shits in something, you own it. Remember that."

"You're gonna run into jerk offs. But remember, it's not the size of the asshole you worry about, it's how much shit comes out of it."
 
Although most of the quotes are plain-spoken, acerbic and somehow suspiciously funny (suspicious only because they're so good you wonder if Justin is blessed not so much with a brilliantly funny father, but rather with a gift for sounding like a brilliantly funny 73 year old), his wide-ranging and largely spot-on opinions on topics such as pet care, food preparation, raising children, making drinks, and how to identify a stripper all prove testament to the uniquely engaging environment of the multigenerational family home. You're left amused and touched and oddly nostalgic for days when we all had the opportunity to live with and know our parents better throughout adulthood.
 
"You don't know shit, and you're not shit. Don't take that the wrong way, that was meant to cheer you up."

LOL thanks for drawing our attention to this, Lindsey. Just found this recent one: "I like the dog. If he can't eat it, or fuck it, he pisses on it. I can get behind that."
