This is probably old news to most, if you are a twitter follower anyway. ShitMyDadSays is a list of hilarious and true comments and quips from the dad of Justin Halpern. About 5 months old now, his twitter feed has amassed over 1 million followers. I often sit here and share the tweets with my wife for us to laugh about.
A sample:
- “You’re gonna run into jerk offs. But remember, it’s not the size of the asshole you worry about, it’s how much shit comes out of it.”
It’s nice to know that in the current economic downturn or whatever the hell they decide to call it now, that someone who was displaced from his job because of it, has found an outlet and a way to turn a bad situation into a good one.
In some small way, it gives me a little more hope that eventually, I’ll end up back in the work force, too. Obviously, the chances of coming up with a unique spin on things like Justin has, and turning it into a moneymaker are quite slim. The hope is still there though, that as the calendar starts over, I will become a productive member of my household again, sooner, rather than later.
