Yeah this rototiller may have been a mistake but you know what? It pays to be prepared

I went to high school with the heir to the crocs empire. He was pretty messed up even by my high school's standards. He once stole a friend's laptop when I invited him over someplace (I didn't realize how far gone he was at that point). When we used find my device we found out where he was, went there, I punched him in the face and took the laptop and later we found a video on it of him naked with his dick tucked singing shania twain into the webcam.

Just because we're suburban dads doesn't mean we didn't get a little wild back in the old days, believe you me! *laughs obnoxiously*

Gettin' tired of messing with this weenie battery operated fishing line trimmer. Think it’s time to get an Echo. I’m thinking maybe the PAS-2620 with the Pro edger attachment.

I just trim my fishing line with a pocket knife! HA!

That's a little dad humor for ya

I guess you could say it was a 'good' friday

My stolen car got found last Friday, about two hours before I was set to go buy a motorcycle so I'd have some transportation. The Goodest Friday!! For me at least.

Although ngl I'm kind of upset that I don't have an excuse to buy a motorcycle anymore :(. Don't know how I'd justify it to the "the missus"

I fixed my snowboard with some two stage epoxy last weekend. Never even tried to fix a snowboard before but it seemed to go pretty well.

And yes, us dads can get pretty XTREME too when we want to.

Does building one of those left over bricks outside pizza ovens count for suburban dad status? Saw this and thinking of trying this weekend.

I'm not sure there could be anything that counts more. Apart from an all-dad cover band where you play bass, but it's second only to that

I'm buying an air fryer and a smoker tomorrow. Just planted loads of Asian cabbage to make kimchi this summer. My aluminium necked guitar for my hobby sludge / doom band is on the way. Currently browsing mason jars for the four hybrid autoflowers I have going under the eaves. Getting into modular synthesis. Concerned about my choice in log splitters.

How do I rank

You definitely have the consumerism part down, just make sure you only ever use this stuff three times per year or less (but sometimes take the guitar out just to look at it and make sure it didn't get dirty inside the case somehow)

Sometimes you get that suburban dad who is like hey man wanna “toot toot” while the girls are looking at duvet covers or some poo poo and he’s talking about cocaine.

Pretty sure that means he wants to suck you off. Well I say go for it! Suburban dads need love too

I like that the thread has correctly identified that being a suburban dad is primarily about buying things, especially things that will only be used a time or two per year, or maybe never
