The mood has been very heavy for the last week, and rightfully so. Between Charlie and the left's God awful reaction, we've been left sad and angry. Tensions are high; we need relief. Sometimes, during the worst times, you just need a laugh, and Lord knows we need a laugh right now.
Luckily, Terry Schappert, with a little help from his friends on X, has come through when we needed him most.
It all started seriously enough during Terry's latest appearance on Gutfeld, having a 'Come to Jesus' chat with the idea of a civil war in the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination.
Watch:
Wisdom from a man who's been there, and the message is as plain as the look on his face.
The look on his face:
We all know that look. If you're a dad, you've given that look. Just like the look your dad gave you, and his dad gave him.
You see, Terry isn't mad; he's just disappointed.
You knew it was your fault. He knew it was your fault, and you knew, he knew you knew it was your fault.
That's how the 'Dad Look' works.
Well, if you want to be trusted with the tools, you need to take care of the tools.
There's an 'Oh Fudge' Ralphie joke here somewhere.
We're going to disagree here. He's your dad. He gets bathroom slamming rights for life. If he wants (or needs) to stop over and nuke the head, he can stop over and nuke the head. Even if you're in a rented RV stuck in traffic on a family road trip to the beach, he's within his God given dad rights to destroy that tiny little, unventilated can like he owns it. Just roll down the windows and deal.
Those are the rules.
Speaking of vacations.
Dad knows that he's going to end up lugging that luggage around. After he figures out how to Tetris it all into the car.
You'd better have some gas money, kid. If you bring that car home empty again, DUDE, you're screwed! (See what we did there?)
No one is ever good enough for Daddy's little princess. He was right, though, wasn't he?
It's even true if you're Daddy's little prince.
Thanksgiving dinner is going to be awkward this year.
Especially after they meet your date.
Eventually, we have to grow up and perfect a 'Dad Look' of our own.
We've been there. We get it.
The circle completes when we have kids of our own. We get it now, Dad. You were right all along.
If you were wondering how Terry was handling all of the attention, he took it as humbly and as gracefully as you might have imagined.
The Destroyer of Worlds came through with a laugh when we desperately needed one. We'd be happy to order him his own plate of Crab Rangoons, on us. He's earned it, and we aren't sharing ours.
Terry may not have been the hero we asked for, but he was the hero we needed.
He may not be a superhero, but he has played one on TV, and he doesn't expect you to be perfect; he just wants you to try your best. He still loves ya, even if you date a loser, forget to put the tools away, or bring the car home with no gas.
Just remember, he's not mad, He's just disappointed.
