There are many things we humans still haven't figured out. Like, what came before the big bang, will AI eventually overtake us, and why do all dads grunt when they sit down. Or why they take grilling so seriously. In fact, there are probably more mysteries about dads than the universe. To try and get to the bottom of them, people have started Tweeting them, and the questions perfectly describe every dad in the history of dadness. The sad part, however, is that even with all that attention, most of them remain unanswered. Science is one way we make sense of the world around us, but it appears that even rationality can't explain everything.

They think sleep is for the weak and they don't wanna be weak OR they know falling asleep in front of a loved one is rude and they don't want to be rude to their loved one

This is the "at ease" pose that many servicemen are used to. He's relaxed but observant.

Because they do not want some fancy s**t. They ask what they need.

Well I'm not a dad but I do take grilling or any kind of meat cooking seriously. I mean the animal had to die so you can eat it, the least you can do to respect that, is being really focused on making it really delicious :D

every six months or so you should take everything out of your wallet and only put back what you need,. The poor thing always looks sad and deflated afterwards.

If they're like my ex, then it's because they don't spend their money. He would walk around a store, give me a list of things to buy for him, and then complain that I never had any money.

Dumb question. Answer - Easier to get out, easier to load/ unload the trunk when it isn't facing traffic, Dads don't see it as a special showy thing, just an obvious thing to do.

Secret for you...we hate texting. We are not 13 yr old girls. A 30 second phone conversation can take the place of 20 text messages and misunderstandings.

Because that's exactly how directions work! North, South, East and West are not inventions of the crazed mind. They existed long before digital technology, and they'll exist long after you drop your phone two blocks from your house and suddenly realize you have no clue where you are and where to go from there.
