Celebrities Say The Darndest Things
Full confession: I somewhat enjoy celebrity gossip. Gossip about people that I don’t know and probably will never know is a personal outlet that helps me NOT gossip about people I know in real life or at least I think it does. A recent celeb gossip story that keeps popping up on my radar is [...]
Bad Videos: New Dad State of Mind
From stand-up comic Juston McKinney comes a rap video about the trials and tribulations of fatherhood (up to and including product recalls, potty training and Play-Doh jungles). It’s called New Dad State of Mind and it’s kind of awesome, in that ‘it’s funny ’cause it’s true kind of way’ (though it does err a little [...]
Despicable Parenting Tips, Because, Don’t You Want To Kick It Up A Notch?
Sometimes, it’s not enough to just be bad. Sometimes, truly awesome parenting calls for being despicable. Just ask Steve Carell:
Would You Make A David After Dentist?
So, you remember that viral video ‘David After Dentist’ where David’s dad captured and shared with the world his son’s first hallucination-laden legal drug trip, a trip during which the obviously stoned boy posed more existential questions and thoughts than a boat load of philosophy grad students trying to impress their prof?
Bad Dad? iPhone Has An App For That.
Usually, when we talk about ‘bad dads’ around here, we’re talking about ‘bad dads’ in the same way that we talk about ‘bad moms’ – bad as in counter-traditionally good.

Bad Dad Needs Schooling In What’s Funny, And What’s Not
Dear Adam Carolla: I understand that you’re supposed to be a comic or something. That’s awesome. No, really. How many people get to make their living making jokes? That’s pretty cool. And I see that you make jokes about your kid, which, again, cool, I get that. I mean, I do it too, sort of. [...]
Four Out Of Four Dentists Say OH HELL NO
Please do not be inspired by this video to perform your own home dentistry, just please, please don’t. Lawyers would probably recommend that we state clearly that we will not take any responsibility for any actions inspired by the stunt embedded below, a stunt that makes me think the father who made this video might [...]
Flowers In The Attic Is Not A Good Example For Dating With Children
Raise your hand if you read the classic V.C. Andrews tale of the Dollanganger family, Flowers in the Attic. OK, now put your hands down y’all — I knew you were my kind of people. That’s some sticky, stupid brain candy turned into epic literature. Epic AWESOME literature. Anyway. One thing I learned from Flowers [...]
My Only Regret Is That I Don’t Speak Chinese
I recently came across this story of a dad in China who chained his 8 year old son to a light post and tried to auction him off. When I read the headline I was immediately outraged. I mean, what parent would do this to his child? Only the monster kind of parent, right? As [...]
From The MamaPop Files: Tiki Barber Banned From Delivery Room
Well, I guess this is what happens when you dump your wife, who is 8 months pregnant with twins, for a 23 year old intern at NBC, Traci Lynn Johnson. You end up standing outside the room when the babies are born. Like Tiki Barber. Continue reading this post at MamaPop…
