Unfortunately, not everyone will get the memo on what NOT to get their dads this Father's Day. Take the items below, for example. Ranging from corny and cliched to downright ridiculous, these gifts aren't what your dad wants. We're sure of it.

Captions are hilarious (e.g., on the bottle opener).

Oh come on, some of these were funny. If a kid can't get his dad an important gift, he relies on that old standby, the gag gift. Give the 10-year-old his due, he's only a kid. Everyone has a quick chuckle and junior feels important for a bit. Then, 10 years later, everyone has a good laugh about it.

There's a difference between funny, silly, and just plain dumb.

This doesn't make the first two categories.

The lawnmower bike is actually an awesome idea but the pedal effort must be very high and it looks like it probably doesn't exactly turn on a dime. Great for long stretches. And since Dad appears to be an alcoholic it's probably safer than a powered mower.

I live in Ga, not too far away from the nudist camp town and I don't see how anyone would want this as a gift. First, in June it is 100 degrees. One wrong sit down and Dad is in the burn unit. Second, there are mosquitoes, biting flies, and poison ivy. Now Dad's burned nads are also itchy with an oozing rash. You could just give Dad 20 mins with a Thai hooker and he would come out about the same, but he wouldn't have to see all of the fat, hairy mountain people before it happened.

The beer holster would come in handy at parties and barbecues. As long as the wearer remembers to remove the drink before sitting down.

Lame. Did my dad write this?

Oh I know the type, the guys who would wear a tie with a picture of their kid on it. They must be married to the type who would bring in their wedding music mix, home-made with all of the nauseating narrative. What a barf-fest that was. Some people just don't understand how little their coworkers care about that cr@p and just want to get their work done and get home to their own life.

What?! The bicycle-mower is awesome!

But for $1.99 at a Pilot station, I got my dad a plastic coffee thermos with an eagle and an American flag, and it says Professional Driver's Club: Road Ranger on it. BEAT THAT.

Okay, how about this: I found a coffee mug at a garage sale with the logo for Top Sires (a cattle semen company) on it. It made the rounds of our family whenever someone got pregnant, presented solemnly to the father or father-to-be on Father's Day for years.

We should give them what they give their wives, black stockings... and see if they like it.

I think the "Fatherhood For Dummies" was co-authored by one of the Bush daughters.

No, you've got that confused with "Our Father IS A Dummy"!

I knew I had seen the two together. I just wasn't sure of the title.
Thanks for the correction. ;-)
