A Dad’s Guide to Being Less Cringey
From the viral dad behind New York Times bestseller What Time is Noon comes a laugh-out-loud look at dads and the art of being (less) cringey.
Dad, Can You Not is a tongue-in-cheek field guide for the modern father—complete with hundreds of real examples of embarrassing dad behavior provided by Chip’s million-plus social media followers. The book also includes tons of brutally honest texts sent to dads by their own kids (“Dad, please don’t wear shoes where we can see your toenail.”). With charts and graphs, quizzes graded on Chip’s “DadMeter”, and plenty of roasts from Leighton’s own kids, Dad Can You Not makes the perfect gift for the dad in your life or for anyone who likes to laugh.
From the TikTok creator of “Texts from my College Freshman” comes a collection celebrating the humor of the modern teenager.
Chip Leighton started performing online as a lark, not because he “craved validation through TikTok” as his daughter claimed (with snark). When sharing the funny, weird, crazy things his kids said and texted he quickly learned he was not alone. Since launching, his channel has become the go-to support group for adults who have teenagers in their lives—wholly confirming that teens everywhere say the darndest things. Parents worldwide use Leighton’s posts to laugh, commiserate, and share their own kids’ classics, like “what time is noon” or “do I have medicare?” What a relief to learn that it’s perfectly normal for teens to roast their parents mercilessly (“Don’t wear mom jeans to my school again”) or ask wild questions (“where do I buy pasta water”).
