From dadshop
If your dad is like most dads, he probably looks forward to relaxing in a comfortable chair with a good DVD every now and then. How do you think he would feel watching a 30 minute DVD called The Incredible Adventures of Amazing Dad, starring himself as a superhero who succeeds at defeating the evil Professor Nasty? Yep, it’s a little cheesy, but just like a good Dad Joke, your dad will probably find it much funnier than everyone else does.

8. Clever DIY Origami Card

We’ve all seen those little stickers on the back window of cars, showing each member of the driver’s family as a little cartoon or caricature.
