    Pick my kid up from daycare. She’s got a quarter strip of bacon. Holds it up to my mouth and when I go to bite shoves the whole thing into her mouth. You had a long run, I was struck down before she could form a burn into words.

      drop her right back off at daycare and drive home. she doesn’t need you anymore, she’s ready to face the world without help

    Dude there are four comments on this post so far and only one of them sounds like they read it, or maybe got the point of it? Maybe it’s just how I’m reading it idk lol

    Oh yeah so what I really wanted to say was that I now want to steal this phrase because I did always sort of hate the “swear on something” thing and dad’s sardines are cute substitute. I’ll take suggestions for others though lol

    Posting about it makes me think he wants to be the guy who coined “…on my father’s sardines.”

    Like if he didn’t think he’d recover, this ain’t the way to go about recovering.
