My dad tried to teach me how to fish once.

After an hour of tangled lines and no bites, he finally just put his arm around me and said, 'You know, the best part isn't catching fish, it's just being here with you.' He still didn't catch anything that day, but he definitely caught my heart.

For Father's Day, I got my dad a really fancy smart home system, hoping it would simplify things.

He just reprogrammed everything to automatically turn off lights the second someone leaves a room and set the thermostat to 'financially responsible'.

My dad's idea of retail therapy...

...is walking through the hardware store, picking up random bolts and muttering, 'I'll need this someday.'

I got my dad a personalized 'Grill Master' apron for Father's Day

Now he's saucier than the barbecue
