Who puts that on a poster? I can remember a gradeschool teacher going 'round the room, asking each student what our dads did for a living. There was apparently no educational purpose to this; he just wanted to know.
It seems very classist, very macho, very elitist to me. Possibly designed to make certain people feel inferior. I don't see it being the least bit motivating. I just don't get it.
"He scans stupid stuff all day, watches too much TV at night, tells bad jokes, cooks some good stuff sometimes, and he farts a lot."

What kind of a poster is that? Other than creepy?
My dad's retired. He farts a lot, too.
Wow, you have a kid?
Suzy-Oh my no.
I'm dying to know what the the poster was advertising. Please, please tell me.

An Ideal Dad!
Mine's dead so he doesn't do much anymore, but he used to plant trees, grow a massive garden, collect woodticks in a jar, and roll his own.
The art comes from an old advertisment for International Correspondence School. I found it in a 1956 Popluar Mechanics magazine.
My Dad is ashes spread around his property, and he likes to fly up our noses and make us sneeze.
Ha! Shame based marketing, it's a classic.
I just hope it doesn't involve dropping trou.
That kid could say: "My dad kicks in the asses of little snot-nosed kids with striped shirts! And the kids who hang out with said striped-shirters!"
My dad used to beat me!
