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.

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.

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!!!

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.

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…

So glad we don’t have HOAs in Oz. I can’t think of anything worse than some busybody with way too much time on their hands having the power to tell me what I can and can’t do to my own house!

Seriously jealous. It's usually a group of 6 to 10 busybodies power tripping and trying to make decisions for everybody based on their own personal likes without consideration for the other people living in the neighborhood. Our previous HOA was so bad I thought my neighbors were going to revolt and set fire to the board members houses at one point.

My HOA is voluntary to pay in to. Best decision ever. The board works above and beyond for us to pay fees. Transparent budget, meetings etc.We need HOAs for what they were intended to be or not at all. Go voluntary.

I've read up a bit about them since I'm not living in the US and the concept is so foreign to me. I mean, I would get it if neighbors came together to make a fund for hiring gardeners who will make everything nice and presentable without too much expense for everyone involved or hiring a company that does street cleaning and winter services so the walkways the town doesn't clean/shovel in solely private areas get done at lower costs for everyone, but I can't wrap my head around the idea of making it mandatory to participate just because you bought a house in the neighborhood! Americans (some) are weird, they balk at state issued health care because ot ThEiR FrEEdOmS!!1! But organisations that force you to pay fees for intransparent services or no service at all who will then force you to abide by their arbitrary rules so you can't even use your own house as you like it are somehow ok. I'll never understand it

Why, oh why are people still suckered into joining an HOA? Years of bad press, and people are still shelling out for these scam residential plots.

My mother had one before she passed and they couldn't use certain colors for their window coverings. She had slates so she got my brother to paint the outside facing ones to grey and kept the old rose for inside. They had tons of rules like that.

My sister bought a townhome last year— Hated that she had to be part of an HOA—so once she moved in, she read through and took notes on all bylaws, then became HOA president 2 months later. Haha if the system has to be there, she’s gonna make sure it’s advantageous for all the people that live there, not the people collecting dues and not delivering. (There’s only like 12 townhomes in the HOA, so it’s very easy to manage.)

I mean, if you don't want to bake, sure. And I'm okay with Red Lobster. Their food isn't bad. But all you need to do is add garlic & cheddar to a simple biscuit mix and if you want to get fancy baste em with a butter/garlic mix at the end. They're not hard to make.

For non Americans (and some Americans too i suppose) an apple orchard is a small farm that has apple trees on site that let you pick your own apples. They generally will also have a shop full of apple related foods and items to purchase. Some will have playgrounds and activities for children so it's a nice family outing. Dads hate them while moms love to use the scenic farm locale to take family photos.
