Father’s Day 2020 is on track to be a rather unusual one. Although more businesses are open now than on Mother’s Day, we are still very much living in a pandemic.
Work-from-home dads probably don’t need any more ties, and lockdown has us all feeling a bit loopy. Naturally, the funny parents (and children) on Twitter have found the humor in the situation.
We’ve rounded up 15 funny and relatable tweets about Father’s Day in the age of the coronavirus pandemic and social distancing.
I've been doing house projects nonstop since this lockdown started and I swear to god if I get anything from Home Depot for Father's Day I'm going to destroy everything

Quarantined for Mother’s Day and get out of lockdown JUST in time for Father’s Day....typical.

Hey it's Father's Day this month. Of course during this pandemic it'll be more like Farther's Day, ammirite?! Because we'll all have to stand farther away from our dads!

*sound of mic tapping*
Hello...is this thing on...?
During a Zoom call with his teacher, my kid was filling out one of those "all about my dad" sheets for Father's Day. He keeps his volume at full blast (because of course he does), so clear as a bell I heard her ask: "What's your dad good at?"

The ensuing silence was DEAFENING.
Ok. You know lockdown is getting you and the isolation is real when it’s mid afternoon before we realise we have been celebrating Father’s Day a week early.

Still, it was a lovely day - thanks fam!! Love you 😘😂
Send your Father’s Day gifts tomorrow. He is more forgiving than your mother but it’s a pandemic. Throw a dog a bone.
