This Dad is gas.
Every year, comedian Katherine Ryan (@Kathbum) receives a heavily edited birthday card from her pop.
As she explains, her father goes through the trouble of “cross[ing] out the passages that he doesn't feel apply to [her]” because what’s family for if not for being brutally honest?
Check it out:
Particularly brutal is the crossed out passage “I love the heart of you… the genuine compassion, empathy and friendship you offer to everyone you know.”
This also isn’t the first time that Katherine's father has sent her such a card:
I'll never forget June of 2004 when the entire thing was crossed out.
