Dads can either be entertaining, embarrassing, or confusing. Which one is your dad?
But you know what? Sometimes though, dads will come up with genius ideas that seemed weird or foolish at first. Or it might still be foolish but it’s definitely funny.
Want to laugh while learning some new hacks? Then read these dad hacks.
1. Leaking food
His burrito was leaking and he didn’t have napkins. He did have diapers in the car. Problem solved.
2. Strawberry rocks
Want to prevent crows or other birds from feeding on your harvest? Get rocks and paint them like your harvest. Place them on the ground before the fruits are ready for harvest and wait for the birds to peck on them. The hard rock will turn them off your plants forever.
3. Pool nap
Napping on the couch or on the bed are no longer fun. This dad wants to cool down while napping. So he bought a snorkel so he can nap in the pool.
4. Natural light
His basement had no windows but that won’t stop him from making it the best man cave there is.
“Paid $10 for two old windows. Painted them, frosted the glass, installed them into my wall with 12” LED flat panel lights behind them. Now it’s always 2pm at the basement bar.”
5. Turn on the lights!
Have you ever inside a Hollister store? This dad has and he’s come prepared. They can’t fool him now!
6. So many fairies
He told his daughters there were fairies at the bottom of the garden. They believed him. And now they’re not talking to him.
7. To bleach or not to bleach?
His dad’s shirt got splashed with bleach. Instead of throwing away the shirt, his dad decided to redesign it with more bleach. How do you like your shirt now, dad?
8. Diaper cushion
This guy found more uses for his child’s diaper. And he can protect his guitar at the same time. Good job, Dad! Just make sure your baby didn’t run out of diapers to use.
9. “Acne” problem
According to Samantha, her dad placed the top part of sliced strawberries on his face and asked her an important question. Does he have an acne problem? Her dad is definitely weird.
10. Old-fashioned labels
Their grandpa doesn’t like those fancy labels for his drawers. He’s going for the real thing. He’s got the actual item on the drawer itself. Smart idea.
11. Priorities
His daughter just won a scholarship and is being interviewed by the news. But it’s Ronald McDonald. He’s here, too! Gotta have a selfie with the red clown.
12. Those good shoes
He’s got a special night. And a special night deserves special shoes. So don’t touch the shoes!
13. How to get what you want
Have you ever spent countless hours trying to cancel your cable and end up subscribing to a more expensive plan? You’re not alone. But this guy figured out how to actually get what he wants.
14. Bratz chicken
Her dad was carving the chicken in the kitchen for dinner. It was silent at first then she hears him laughing and giggling inside. When she went into the kitchen to check, this is what she saw.
15. Dad’s message
Wow, such a supportive dad. Thanks, dad! Will do that next time!
16. Money strategy
Before they can do it to you, do it to them. Especially when it comes to money. Her uncle has just beat them all.
17. Don’t get them dirty!
They’re brand new shoes. Getting them dirty is not an option. Bring out the Ziplocs!
18. Daughters can break the most manly dad
Even the toughest dad cannot match his daughter’s request. So just suck it up, dad, and get ready to have your hair done, your lipstick applied, and drink your tea. You won’t be able to say no.
19. Epic dad joke
No matter how witty you think your joke is on this post, it’ll never be as epic as her dad’s comment. Epic dad joke, dad. No one can beat that!
20. What the little girl wants
Daddy’s got no say here. Whatever his little girl wants to do, he’s going to do. Even if it’s wearing bows on his hair. It matches his shirt!
21. Yin and yang
Which is left and which is right? That’s easy. Just change one rubber to another color. Problem solved!
22. Stay safe, kiddo
Dads used to not like their dogs. They used to think of dogs as someone who’ll watch over kids. And now, the kids are forgotten and the dogs are the ones given special attention.
23. Just trippin’
He’s just trippin’ you know? And these dad jokes never grow old. Well, at least for dad. Not sure the same could be said for his children. He can try it on his grandkids next!
24. Bun of shame
They just want him to be safe. And indoors. So he must wear this escape-proof wiener bun outfit all the time.
25. Safety first
He needs to protect his eyes from the eclipse. But how? Use the eclipse gum boxes and gum to make eclipse glasses. Perfect!
26. Stalker
His dad keeps placing this Mr. Bean standee in different places to scare him. It’s working. Every time. This is just one of those moments.
27. Puppy pocket
This puppy needed a hug. But how? This guy knows. He reversed his jacket so the hoodie can become a puppy pocket. Good one!
28. Just a couple of snacks
They told this dad to get snacks for the kids. So he just got a bunch of yogurt snacks for them. Is 100 bottles enough?
29. A reenactment they regret
Dad always lets his daughter ride the cart whenever they go to Costco. Now that’s she’s 30, they both realized that’s just sad. Just kidding! Or maybe not.
30. Why all the styrofoam packaging?
Some dad probably discovered this by accident. But it’s a great way to keep the small parts within your eye view. But if you’ve completed the assembly and there are still parts there, well, that’s another problem.
31. This family tree
He “stepped” into their family history. It’s sad he never got to know his real ladder. But his step ladder has always been there for him though.
32. No make-up look
Dad wanted to clean his daughter’s doll. It made a lot of sense to use alcohol wipes, right? Unfortunately, the doll’s make-up works like all other make-up. He had to cut out eyes from the newspaper so the doll can still “see.”
33. Duct tape bible
He asked his grandpa why all his books were covered in black duct tape. His grandpa said he did it so it can look like the Bible and he can read his books at church. Sneaky, Grandpa, sneaky.
34. All the juice for himself
How do you get all the juice for yourself? Follow this dad’s strategy. Write down a note they can never prove for sure and cannot ignore.
35. Doting father
Wow, what a doting father. But his phone is amazing. The stage looks very much like a basketball court. Pretty cool.
36. How to bribe your dog into walking
He had to walk the dog but couldn’t find the leash. How to “encourage” the dog to follow him? Use a chips bag and tease him with it.
37. Avoid hand cramping
Her husband made this book holder for this wife. Now she won’t need to experience any hand or finger cramping anymore. That’s a pretty cool invention and a must-have for all readers.
38. Bad dad
His daughter better stop challenging him to a tallest Lego tower tournament if she can’t stand to lose. Or is he being a bad dad? What do you think?
39. Someone’s had a little too much coffee
And they needed a project to use all that energy on. And he’s not about to use all that energy on work. It’s best spent on productive projects like this make-shift coffee timer.
40. No one likes getting pulled over
This cop pulled him over. What did he do? He was being safe. The cop was coming closer until he realized the cop was his dad. Thanks for the heart attack, Dad!
