People Are Sharing The Things That Dads Do But Nobody Knows Why, And They’re Spot-On (30 Tweets)

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

It's satisfying. Try it.

for prevented them to stick to their skin

Because 'in their day' they didn't have to use no stinkin' GPS

They exhausted

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

Back pain, mostly

It hides our terrible handwriting.

I think I´m a Dad then... ^^

because silence is golden when you have kids.

So they can concentrate. Duh!

It's a distraction.

There's nothing more relaxing than a scraping sound your bumper does when squeezing between two other cars.

My excess noise tolerance expired around my 40th birthday. Dont worry it will happen to you too.

To concentrate on finding a parking spot and not lyrics

We are listening to the direction of the sound of engine starting, which is a sign of people leaving and an available parking spot coming up.

Who doesn't? Less distractions!!

wait...isn´t that said to women? Because we have to hear what we are seeing? :-D

It's too loud to see clearly. Same goes with looking for house numbers at night.

Better concentration?

I do it even on complicated cross roads, not just parking... It's the logic 'I turn it down to see better' and works for many people :D

I do that and I’m a mom and grandma. I do it because I’ve usually got heavy music playing loud enough to damage ear drums and I turn it down when I need to concentrate.

I'm not a dad, but I've done that. The music competes w/ the part of the brain that needs to focus on certain things...some of us can't hear ourselves think w/ the radio playing. It's about isolating stimuli. Relatedly, I remember being able to write essays while listening to music that was instrumental or in another language I didn't understand, but not if it were sung in English. It was like listening to two people talk at once (the song & me talking in my head)...a complete cacaphony. On the other hand, I was able to do my math homework with ANY kind of music on, since it uses another part of the brain for processing.

It’s like prelanding check list. Getting ready to deplane as soon as he finds a spot! And they hate when they start up the car and the radio blares (or AC blowing) You need to listen to the purr of your engine.

I learned that in drivers ed class...oh wait, you don’t get drivers ed class anymore.

Doesn't everyone do that? it just makes sense.

I do the same. I need full concentration.

because they are about to get out???

to see better

Because most food dates are arbitrary

we mentally stop ageing around 18.

because we don't have purses.

Because Homer Simpson started it.

To make room for the desserts.

Why do kids always have to pee as soon as the car moves?

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.

Do you have change in your purse?

Not just dads do this ...

Dad jokes are our God given right and we are going to use them.

The mirrors and seat clearly need to be adjusted, because the car is so badly parked they need to move it.

Put a jumper on, save the world/wallet

Is it an Irish Setter? I talk to Scottish Terriers in a Scottish accent.

They are showing self restraint, they know they will accidentally keep any pen they accept

Free

Never! Why do wife and kids always have theirs on silent and miss every message a dad sends?

Because they would look silly in a Hello Kitty shirt.

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.
