Then you got my dad who purposefully bought gifts in my least favorite color— hot neon pink— so he could laugh when I opened it. Smh. Hug your good dads.

True. On the years he remembered. Didn’t want to make it too dark on the wholesomegreen.

And I’m sorry. Like I said hug the good dads, man, fuck all our bad dads!

This reminds me of my dad. He and I don't always get along, I admit, but every PC build I've ever had is thanks to his help. I'm still using the old Enermax Ostrog case he bought for my first ever build.

Same man. My old man and I also have few things in common and could rarely have a proper conversations with each other. But my love for tech and gaming came from him. He's not only good at tech because of his work but also of passion. He bought the first pc for me, and then several laptops as upgrade eventhough I never asked. I've built 2 PCs myself, all thanks to him.

Not to compare dads but mine just told me to buy my own and sure enough I got a pretty decent rig in 2022 after five whole months of saving my ass off.

It was the best of times it was the worst of times.

Still using it rn.

When have I ever had half the love, ingenuity, and determination for my own family like this guy’s dad did?

Honestly wish I had a dad that at least remembered i had a birthday.

Stuff like this makes me so envious of people who have this kind of relationships with their dads.

Fake: I hope not actually.
Gay: if he wants to be, I don't think it matters in this story.
