27 Hilarious Dads You Can't Help But Love Despite Being Seriously Weird

I promise that every one of these guys has made his kid go, "DAAAAAAAD!!!"

As a dad myself, I can attest this is true: When you have kids, you get a little weird — dad weird. "Dad weird" is its own type of weird. Whether it's obsessing over the corniest jokes/puns possible, vigilantly turning out every light in the house ("What are we, made of money?"), or reveling in embarrassing their kids as much as possible...dads bring the weird in the best-possible way.

So here are 27 hilariously weird dads it's impossible not to love (probably a lot like your own):

1. First, there's this dad who had the most "dad"-ever response to his kid's good news:

2. And these dads who epically embarrassed their daughters by imitating their photo session at the beach:

3. This dad also couldn't pass up the opportunity to embarrass his daughter:

It has come to my attention that some of you don’t know my English teacher in high school was my own father, on the first day of classes he said “I want you all to know I’m only sleeping with one (1) of your mothers” this is my villain origin story

4. This dad framed this poster — full of reviews that don't stink! — on his bathroom wall:

5. And this dad texted this photo to his kid with the message, "It finally happened!":

6. This sweet-hearted dad insists on drinking his coffee half a mug at a time:

7. This dad refuses to cut the pepperoni on his pizza, so he serves his family these nonstandard slices:

8. And this dad did NOT let his turn being responsible for the neighborhood sign go to waste:

"Dad" store signs like "If seagulls lived by the bay they would be called bagels!" and "Do not trust atoms; they make up everything"

9. This dad tacked a hilarious notice on a bulletin board:

Sign saying "If you lost a wad of $20s wrapped in a rubber band, I found your rubber band," with a rubber band affixed to it

10. And this dad turned a note to his kid's phys ed teacher into a work of dad art:

Note asking that kid be excused for any activities due to foot pain, but if their foot does fall off, they won't be in pain and can partake in normal activity

11. This dad was moving into a new apartment, so he 3D-printed a scale model of it to help him figure out where to put his stuff:
