Dads have it rough.
A recent survey reveals that most Americans think dads get the short end of the stick on Father’s Day, compared to the heaps of attention moms get on Mother’s Day.

It’s so bad that 1 in 4 Americans don’t plan to get their dads anything for Father’s Day.

But it’s not like dads want stuff anyway. Like how many ugly ties and socks can one man have in his drawer chest?

The least popular Father’s Day gift among dads? Office supplies. ha! (Editor’s Note: Not my dad. He loves Office Supplies)
