Happy Good Ol' Dad's Day!
by Nathan'ette Burdine: June 16, 2019
 


It’s Good Ol’ Dad’s Day! Dads all around the world got up this morning hoping those they helped to create would take time out to appreciate them.

All dads want is what they want. And what they want is what they want. What that is is dependent upon who the dad is.

There are three types of dads. There are the “Al Bundy” dads. The “Percy Jones” dads. And the “Ego” dads.

The “Al Bundy dads just want the simple things. Y’all know, simple things like your own roof over your head, a newspaper, a bathroom, some hot food, a good Western like Rifleman to watch, and go to the Nudie Bar.

Dad can sit down on the couch with his porter house steak and the mashed potatoes with the little green onions swimming around in the gravy and a big mason jar of sweet ice tea on the side, eat and watch Rifleman, and then go into the “King’s Suite” and let it all out in the “King’s Seat” before heading out to the Nudie Bar. The simple life. It’s the best life.

Like the “Al Bundy” dads, the “Percy Jones” dads are simple…in a way. They’re the dads who mean well but their need to control everything by knowing everything about you, like your credit score, tends to get in the way of the well that they mean.

They’re the type of dads who’ll hang it over your head about your bad credit and then turn around and co-sign that loan for that house you want. That’s them, the “Percy Jones” dads. They’re like a “marshmallow,” hard on the outside and soft on the inside.

These other fellas here, “Ego” dads, are just what their name says, ego. Everything with them is me, mine. That’s why they’re the deadbeat dads because they don’t think about anybody but themselves. And it doesn’t matter if they’re Terran (Earthling) or Celestial. A deadbeat dad is a deadbeat dad.

Those “Ego” dads are all the same. They knock up a woman, leave her, and then come back when they think they can get something out of the kid they put in her. They don’t pay any never mind to the fact that they’ve done nothing to sustain the life they “accidentally” made. And yes folks, as far as deadbeat dads are concerned all of their off springs are accidents that some higher celestial being made happen to them.

Now, I have to warn ya that these dads can be very charming when they want something. So, you have to keep your eyes open, your ears up, and your emotions on off if you want to survive their attacks. They show up during days like this, good ol’ “Dad’s Day”, thinking they can trick you into giving them the life they help give to you.

Y’all know I’m telling the truth because y’all have pappies who’ve showed up, for the first time in y’all’s lives, whenever they want y’all to give them the good life that they never gave to y’all.

It’s the same thing that happened to poor ol’ Peter Quill there. His pappy, Ego, first showed up when he was down and out and needed life to help sustain his messed up life. And to top it off, Ego killed Quill’s mama and then later his real daddy, Yondu, who saved Quill from Ego messed up deadbeat god self.

Hopefully, you don’t have to go through any of that because you’re lucky enough to have the “Al Bundy,” “Percy Jones,” or Yondu type of daddy who ultimately loves and cares for you because you’re a part of him. But if such luck has not befallen upon any of you, then it’s time to start thinking about how accidents happen to those “Ego” daddies.

Happy Good Ol’ Dad’s Day! Toodle-oo!
