50 Hilariously Spot-On Memes About Stereotypical Middle-Class Dads Shared On This Account (New Pics)
There's something special about the fathers who go above and beyond to be the best dads they can be. We call them "rad dads." These special guys don't just take care of their kids, they go out of their way to make sure their children know they're loved and supported, whether it's taking the time to play with them, teach them new skills, or just be there to listen.
This insanely popular Instagram page which is known by exactly the same name “Rad Dad” is dedicated to celebrating the hilarious aspects of fatherhood, whether in the form of memes, jokes, one-liners and cringe posts.
The result is pure entertainment that celebrates and pokes fun at the stereotypical middle-class dads rocking their New Balances while mowing the lawn on a Saturday afternoon with a popped cold can of beer.
Psst! More rad dad jokes can be found in our previous features here and here.

Omg yes! We would get hot chocolate and donuts too. Best Xmas memories ngl
Don't forget jumping off progressively taller things and getting a little concussed!
I love the idea someone just plans ahead like this to mess with a stranger. Now throw some meat in there so when they open it it stinks like crazy as well to add to the realism.
I have grown to love the whistling rat (guinea pig) my daughter wanted then subsequently lost interest in and has now become my responsibility
If it was a birthday party or something I might think it’s funny but I feel bad that it’s a wedding. They asked politely. I’d want to respect that. I’d make sure my kid played inside at 2, that’s about as noisy as we get. I like my neighbors, we take each other’s trash cans in so we’re like almost friends!!!
Yeah, it makes me think maybe the person with the lawn mower has had some beef with that neighbor. Otherwise, there's no need to make someone's wedding day worse, even if they are the fanciest house.

It would all depend on the wording in the letter, but if it rubbed me the wrong way my chainsaw might need adjustment and maintenance at 2.
I'd need to know for how long he wanted silence. An hour for the ceremony might be one thing, "until the celebration is over" would be a tall order. Depending on the number of letters, though, it's quite self centered to expect the whole neighbourhood to essentially hold their breath ("very quiet": just how noisy is everyday life five houses down the road?) for some strangers' (plus the house owners') party.

So messed up! Why am I laughing with my son who said he'd probably do the same thing. Life goes on. Deal with it. Geez.. but truly, if I were asked politely by a neighbor, I'd wish them well and comply. The grass can wait because it already was waiting to be cut.
Maybe wedding-neighbour & lawnmower-neighbour had a little tiff at some point that they failed to clear up.
I guess I'm not understanding the need to be quiet during a wedding. Is it because if you can't hear the officiant says "I now pronounce you man and wife" then it's not valid? I'd understand if there is a kid taking an important exam remotely, but wedding? Why?
I think it’s just that they don’t want noisy things distracting them. They want to just be focused on each other, their vows, and their wedding. A noisy lawnmower next door would be distracting. And if they had a videographer you’d hear it in the tape I’d think. (Can you still call it a tape?)

They should of given a small gift with the note, that would have been more helpful
Maybe more notice would have been nice but can’t be expected especially if not on good terms with neighbors. I often laugh at a comment my husband’s brother in law made once about how it should be illegal to mow on Sundays. He built his house on a corner in the middle of a very fancy neighborhood with 3 properties bordering his and 3 directly across the street and probably 20 others in view of his house. People work to be able to afford homes like that and sometimes they like to do their own yardwork on the weekends.
Yeah sure if he's complaining for any time Sunday. But common courtesy should be enough not to be doing anything noisy too early in the day if it can be avoided. Just like it wouldn't hurt you to not purposefully make loud noise with something that could be put off for an hour or so one particular afternoon if people were polite about asking. Why go out of your way to make someone's life worse?

Everyone's mad at the lawnmower. But you cant expect your whole neighborhood to be quiet. That alone is just selfish.
Exactly. What if 2pm was the only time that the neighbour had to mow their lawn. They might work extended hours, night shifts, or some part of the weekend. They've got every right to mow their lawn whenever they need to. If the neighbours having the wedding didn't take the time and effort to speak with everyone in person, rather than dropping a note in a mailbox, too bad.

A workmate got home and thought it's a nice day to mow the lawn. He started it up and had just started when he realised it was 6am on a Sunday morning. He works shiftwork.
Your immaturity is evident from the opening "fanciest house on our street..." Then expressing awe. So petty when neighbors spoil an event. They asked for quiet at 2 & some clown spites them using his lawnmower. Seriously? That's just pathetic. We want respect but won't give it even in the smallest way.
No, they literally asked for the opposite. Unless there was some underlying reason the wedding party had earned this disruption, the lawnmower man was being a complete douche canoe

Probably wanted to be invited to the party!! Retaliation for no invite!!!!
Oh my gawd, I just did those motions and my brain actually thought I was sending these messages.
LOL! Once on a cold November night, I was standing outside chatting with some clients. My boss thought putting on a coat would be unflattering, so he stood with us, clearly freezing in his dress suit. One of the clients (elderly straight dude who's been married for almost 50 years) says: "Oi, if you come out of the closet, I'll hug you to keep you warm!". Sorry, boss, but that was HILARIOUS!
My husband kept doing this to me, and letting all the cold air in the shower. So I started sneaking quietly into the bathroom when he's showering, waiting until he's washing his face, then pressing my face and hands against the glass until he turns around and screams like a girl. In case you're interested, he doesn't bother me in the shower anymore.
A man is a man. If he says he'll fix something, he'll fix it. There's no need to remind him every six months.
I don’t know why this is but it’s so true. My husband is crazy tough. Had surgery and I’m begging him to sit and rest rather than pull weeds because he’ll end up tearing his stitches/staples. Can lift a dresser by himself because my weak self can’t manage half the weight. He’s crazy amazing strong and tough. But if his throat is scratchy…
Om nom pulled pork. These kids are crazy if they want hot dogs over pulled pork🤤
There's a much higher chance of being killed by the knife in his hands, especially if you're in the UK.
Bruh.... if i said I was bored I'd get told to go outside and do yard work or to get a new job

MY dad admitted to me he bought a skirt while I was away abroad to trick my cat into sitting on his lap. (It didn’t work) I just found the skirt, it has pockets!
The list is going downhill the more I scroll. Get your s**t together bp!
guys just remember that smoking and drinking aren't good for you .. that's what it seems like too many of these are about. Addiction isn't fun for anyone involved
