I asked my dad what he wanted for Father's Day.

He said, 'Just the perfect articulating ladder so I can finally reach that one spot on the gutters I've been meaning to fix since last spring.'

I got my dad a personalized weather station for Father's Day, thinking it would satisfy his obsession with forecasting the weather.

Now he just complains that the actual weather isn't following his forecast.

My dad's idea of retirement is

spending 40 hours a week in the garage, but now he's getting paid in satisfaction instead of a paycheck.

I got my dad a smart thermostat for Father's Day, thinking it would finally put an end to his temperature tinkering.

Now he just complains that the algorithm isn't as good as his instincts.
