Trendy Dad



Not every Dad's Homer Simpson nor Bob Marley for that matter. But just how trendy is your Dad? My Dad's pretty hip. He's into the Arcade Fire at the moment and he's got a Trojan records t-shirt too. He certainly doesn't act like your typical old fogey. . What about yours?

my dad's pretty old-school...he never dresses up or anything like that, he's pretty much a shirt-and-jeans kinda guy.

My dad was one of the coolest cats u ever wanted to meet,if he snapped on you it means he liked you, what u had to be careful of is when he was quiet.my dad taught me everything i knew, especially the education of Pam Grier and Tamara Dobson drool

My dad is 73 years old and looks like he's "fifty years old". He dresses pretty casual. He's kind of a "modern Mexican".

My father is likely the least trendy person I know. Except possibly my mother and my brother. lol My family members would never, ever be considered hip or 'with it'.
I'm also the only person in the family to have traveled so much, to live in the city, the only one with red hair... we joke that I'm the milkman's kid. giggle It's crazy to think how little I have in common with my relatives, immediate family included.

My dad turned 54 this past August. He's your pretty average 54 year old, except not too long ago he went through this "I gotta be young and hip" phase, where he was dying his hair to hide the gray. You're 50....you're gray.....people know, so stop trying to front. lol And he'd always get me or my brother to burn him mixed cds featuring popular music.....like Usher, R. Kelly, Beyonce, and so on. Seeing a 50 somethin' year old man sing along to Usher's "My Boo" is just scary.....and funny.

My dad was the dentist in a small country town and he was always wearing a baggy in the bum tracksuit down the street. My mum's frends would call her and ask how on earth did she let him out of the house dressed like that eek he is a shocker.

Me too. I'm such a misfit in my family. I was so relieved to find out that my younger cousin was a drug-addicted goth. lol

I don't know if I'd say trendy, but he can look very nice. For the most part he wears "dungarees" and a tshirt...no lie that's what he calls them! When he goes out he knows how to dress. He's been cutting his hair too short though.

It's funny to me to compare this pic with my own senior picture. We had almost the exact same pose. Totally unintentional on my part. biggrin
