Happy father’s day :o)
I miss my dad and don’t get to see him today… but I get to see him Tuesday. Hooraaah.
Fury is a softie, deep down inside his soul….

This photo was taken around midnight on a Brooklyn-bound C Train. The son was sprawled out on his father’s lap, sleeping. The father was cradling the boy’s head in his hands. It was a pretty touching scene, and I wanted to photograph it, but I was very tired myself and I wasn’t sure how much I’d be able to capture from such a close distance. Then suddenly, the father lifted his son into a sitting position, and leaned in so they were touching faces.
I quickly pulled my camera from it’s case and snapped a shot. One of the most natural, beautiful moments I’ve ever been able to capture.
This is so beautiful.There’s so much tenderness in that dad’s, well- everything! His eyes. His hands. Gah! It makes me tear up a little. You really captured a moment here, humansofnewyork. I’m utterly transfixed by this.
I know this is just me reblogging another person’s genius, but I’d like to take the time to give a shout out to my dad and post this in honor of Father’s Day.
My dad, well, we don’t always see eye to eye on every issue, but I’ve always known that he’s got my back. And as a guy coming to terms with adulthood, it’s only at this phase in my life that I can really appreciate the subtle ways my dad has gone to bat for me in the past. Dad’s sometimes have to operate like that. They cradle us and protect us at strange times when we might not even know what’s going on…
Additionally, for the first time ever, seeing this kind of fatherhood “moment” in action has really awakened a desire inside of me to be that kind of anchor for a kid someday. I never thought I would ever feel that kind of impulse, but lo and behold. Here we are!

A Moment with Dad…
“Hey I saw a review of that new movie you were talking about. “A Cinderella Story?” You know the one! It stars that girl from The Twilight Zone?Well, people say that the effects are nice but the acting is bad. I wonder if its because of the twilight girl or the older lady, Charlize Thurman or whatever. Oh, well. Maybe it’ll still be worth seeing, right?”

An old school Italian father shows his support towards his bisexual son who recently came out of the closet by getting a tattoo saying ‘born this way’ in Italian to match his son’s.

Conversations With My Father: Musical Misunderstandings
Father is listening to radio…
Dad: David! Do you know this song that they’re playing?
Me: Yeah, Dad. It’s “Someone Like You.”
Dad: Okay. Great. But who sings it?
Me: Adele.
Dad: WHO?
Me: Ah- dele, Dad. ADELE.
Dad: WHAT? You’re telling me a computer sang that song?!!
Me: What do you mean? “A computer sang…”
Dad: Look, I don’t care if they used a Mac or a PC or whatever to make the song. I just want to know WHO sang the darn song! That has to be a person’s voice, right?!!!
(David stares off into the distance for a moment, slowly putting the pieces together…)
Me: NOT a DELL computer, Dad. Adele! Adele is the name of the singer.
Dad: Oh. I thought…
Me: I know, dad. Don’t worry. This is why I love you.
Dad: I love you too, son.
I Don’t Know HOW My Parents Could Rent a Movie Called “Friends With Benefits”
…and then balk at all the graphic sex scenes.
Here! Please to enjoy transcriptions of actual dialogue taken from my parents during the sex scenes of Friends With Benefits…
Dad: David? Who is this guy again? Justin Timberwolf?
Mom: What is he? Isn’t he a singer? Why is he acting now?
***
Dad: Honey! Look at that headboard! I think I can make something like that for the bed in the guest room.
***
Mom: Why did you rent this?
Dad: I thought you would think it’s funny! It’s supposed to be funny! It’s a love story.
Mom: This isn’t a love story. This is a SEX story.
***
Mom: Mila Kunis is so tiny, it makes her huge ears look bigger than they already are.
***
Me: You know guys, a lot of families would find it embarrassing to watch sexually graphic scenes together. I’m glad that we have the kind of mature relationship where we can see a movie like this, as a family, with minimal ensuing awkwardness.
(Justin Timberlake begins to perform cunnilingus on Mila Kunis)
Dad: (snickers)
Mom: Press fast forward. FAST FORWARD, NOW!!!
Me: (grabs remote)
Me: Weeeell, that was nice while it lasted…
