Dads Say the Dumbest Things Paperback – April 15, 1990

2.5 2.5 out of 5 stars 2 ratings

Fatherly expressions so dumb, they're funny.
Here's the perfect gift for the father who thinks he knows everything -- and the family that has to put up with him.
Dads Say the Dumbest Things! contains all of the mindless expressions and advice that fathers offer when they can't think of anything intelligent to say, like these:
  • I'm the boss and what I say goes.
  • Why? Because I say so.
  • Don't ask me, ask your mother.
  • What do you want an allowance for?
  • When I was your age I had to work for my allowance.
  • Didn't we give you lunch money last week?
  • How well do you know this guy who wants to take you to a drive-in movie?
  • Your mother did tell you about the birds and the bees, didn't she?
  • I wasn't waiting up for you.
  • I was reading the newspaper.
    The book includes 23 photos of famous TV dads who have raised stupid sayings to an art form.

The book is not very funny because it's one liners that are taken out of context. Would not recommend the book to anyone.

Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2002
Lansky and Jones have collected all the greatest lines dads have ever used to get kids to stop fighting in the the car, feed the pet, turn off the TV while doing homework, and get home before curfew. It includes winners such as: "What do you want a pet for-you've got a sister," and, "When I said 'feed the goldfish,' I didn't mean feed them to the cat." A fun gift for dad and the rest of the family, too.
