My dad is awesome for many, many reasons.
He's a great guy. He's nice, thoughtful, knows his way around Los Angeles [small](which is useful for a white kid like me living there.
)[/small], he's hilarious, he's a professor in political science, he has a sort of interest in the games I play [small](he recognizes that they are a growing and respectable medium)[/small], and loves Star Wars as much as I do.
I love my dad.

Mine got me into gaming.
He was born and raised on a dairy farm, decided he wanted to be a paleontologist and dug for dinosaur bones in utah, and also set them up in the museum of natural history, became a science teacher at a ghetto-tastic school (He was the only white faculty member, and the only 2 white kids were siblings) and despite being like sour cream all those gangstas thought my dad was cool.
So yeah, my dad'd a nerd that black people think is off the chain (Well he was really popular at the other school he taught, but just the demographic of the first one is what makes it funny)
He also worked at a game shop on the side and painted miniatures for games like Warhammer 40k for extra cash around the house on commission.
He also loved bugs, like had a bug collection and could draw them incredibly well
These two things are probably where I got my artistic talent from
And on the more shallow side, since he has a decent job and doesn't have custody of me aI get showered with gifts when I visit, unlike my mother who sometime can't afford food.

My dad is cool because he knows computers which makes him useful. Other than that, I know it's kinda bad but... I genuinely can't stand the man and can't wait to get back to uni so that I don't have to deal with him.
Ah... whiskey fuelled internet rants.

My dad is cool because he proved that you can do anything you set your mind to. We started out on less than minimum wage living in a trailer with him working as a furnisher(? guy who makes furniture. he built trailers too) and now he owns a driving school. granted, he only has 1 employee, but it's a growing thing.
My dad can be quite a fobish Indian at times, but I still love him. Plus, he got me into piracy. Hey, my Desi genes refuse to let me buy something I can get for free or much cheaper (No, really, The last two games I bought at full price were MW2 and ODST. Everything else before that was used or bargain bin).
