Hurry everyone say how much you adore electradaddy before he sees this!
I love electradaddy because he is always there to say something nice when you need it, even when he doesn’t know you are having a rough go with things that day.
I love electradaddy for a lot of reasons, but mostly because he’s funny. That’s, like, a critical component for me with anybody. (And I’ve met him in person three times, so I can confirm he’s that funny in real life, too.)
Happy birthday to How To Be A Dad’s Charlie Capen. Writing on the Internet about my parenting foibles instigated many things for me and my friendship with Charlie ranks at the top… just below that free camera I got from Olympus.
To celebrate his birthday, here’s a still of the two of us in bed from the #HondaDads video. I understand this image is probably more of a gift for electradaddy, but that’s okay.
I joke a lot on Tumblr but I did want to tell you with all seriousness how much I'm enjoying your fiction series. Your talent as a writer never ceases to amaze. Many kudos on your latest work.

Thanks, man!
There are a few more installments on the way before we reach the conclusion. I can’t say for sure because I’m kind-of editing on the fly a story I wrote years ago.
(By the way, I’ve got a post scheduled to fire off in an hour that you may dig.)
“Even in pictures that have clearly been photoshopped to make him look better, dude still looks like Skeletor from the 1980s He-Man series. The camera is simply not his friend.”

Mother Nature has a way of making sure things work out. If you’d been a gay dude and we’d have hooked up, our kids totally would have been rockin’ those names. For the best that you’re straight.
We could’ve written musicals together! Alas, our kids Voltron and Spider-Man will never exist and our home will not be filled with show tunes.

Dan Bucatinsky, author of Does This Baby Make Me Look Straight?: Confessions of a Gay Dad was there & spoke. Molly Ringwald, too. And an “Amelia Bedelia” reading. So, so jealous of you!!!!
You can be even more jealous because the label my wife works for released Molly Ringwald’s album, on which she does a cover of “Don’t You Forget About Me.”
So when I heard three entertainers released a video of their road trip and it showed them lip-synching to Kylie Minogue’s hit, Timebomb, I naturally assumed it was the HondaDads. Because making a lip-synching video sounds like something Charlie Capen (How2BeADad) and David Vienna (TheDaddyComplex) would do, amirite?
However, despite Capen using the road trip as an excuse to post pics of his ass and both of them describing the trip in the following ways:
“feels like a naked hug.” - Charlie Capen
“a whole lot of conversations about…dick…” - David Vienna (As a former journalist, David is probably reading that sentence and cringing at the power/abuse of editing.)
I am pretty sure the guys in this video aren’t the real HondaDads. Probably just groupies of theirs. (This joke is funnier if you realize that these three guys - Dirk Caber, Scott Hunter, and Jasun Mark - are adult film stars.)
Nevertheless, I’m convinced there’s a lip-synching video from the HondaDads road trip. The guys are probably just holding it back. Given Capen and Vienna’s comments about the trip, I’m guessing they went with a hit song from the movie 54. Why that movie? “Naked Hugs.”
What song do you think they used for the lip-synching video?
HondaDads? More like FondleDads, amirite?
