In the ever-competitive realm of fatherhood, it's easy to get caught up in a never-ending battle to prove that your child is bigger, better, and more advanced than everyone else's. But what if, instead of fueling the competition, we embraced the ridiculousness of it all? That's exactly what Everyday Dad, a popular online personality, has been ng for years with his hilarious commentary on the ups and downs of being a parent.

The Genesis of Everyday Dad

Jeremy Verner, the man behind Everyday Dad, is a real-life father of three who first gained internet fame in 2009 with his blog of the same name. Verner's relatable and often humorous posts about his experiences as a dad quickly resonated with other parents, and he soon amassed a loyal following on social media.

Verner's unique brand of parenting humor is rooted in his ability to find the absurdity in even the most mundane aspects of fatherhood. Whether he's sharing photos of his kids in ridiculous outfits or poking fun at his own parenting fails, Verner has a knack for making us laugh at ourselves while also reminding us that we're not alone in this crazy journey.

The Importance of Dadhood Humor

In a world that often takes parenting too seriously, Everyday Dad's humor provides a much-needed release. By embracing the laughter in the chaos, he helps us to see that we don't have to be perfect parents to be great dads. In fact, it's our imperfections that make us so relatable and lovable.

Verner's humor also serves a therapeutic purpose. By providing a safe space for parents to share their frustrations and laugh at their own mistakes, he helps to reduce the stress and anxiety that can come with raising children. Just as important, his humor helps to dispel the myth that parenting is all about sacrifice and selflessness. It's okay to have fun and enjoy the ride, even if that means making some mistakes along the way.

The Competitive Nature of Fatherhood

One of the recurring themes in Everyday Dad's humor is the competitive nature of fatherhood. From the moment our kids are born, we find ourselves comparing them to other kids in our playgroups, at daycare, and even in the grocery store. We want our kids to be the smartest, the strongest, and the most popular. And if our kids aren't measuring up, we often feel like we're failing as parents.

But as Everyday Dad points out, this competition is ultimately futile and self-defeating. There will always be someone else's kid who is bigger, better, and more advanced than ours. And even if our kids do achieve great things, there will always be someone else who has achieved more.

Instead of getting caught up in the comparisons, Verner encourages us to focus on what really matters: loving our kids for who they are, regardless of their accomplishments. He reminds us that every child is unique and special, and that we should celebrate their individuality rather than trying to force them to fit into a mold.


Everyday Dad's hilarious commentary on fatherhood is a refreshing antidote to the competitive and often stressful world of parenting. By embracing the absurdity of it all, he helps us to see that we don't have to be perfect parents to be great dads. In fact, it's our imperfections that make us so relatable and lovable.

So next time you find yourself comparing your child to another child, remember the words of Everyday Dad: "Mine is bigger than yours." And then laugh it off. Because at the end of the day, it doesn't really matter who's bigger, better, or more advanced. What matters is that we love our kids unconditionally, and that we enjoy every minute of this crazy journey called fatherhood.
