That joyous moment in every father’s life when you call your son a loser because he doesn’t know all your tricks.
I have tried this. I got crushed by many of the paper planes.
Alas, that isn’t flying, and my punk ass would have explained exactly that to my dad.
However, my punk ass would also refuse to agree with my kid if they did, because you gotta stick with the bit, or it was a waste of time.
Dad joking is serious business

You have no idea. My daughter has to deal with a dad who did standup for years and now is in need of a live audience.
I gotta get my fix and I’m not above exploiting children for it.
Absolutely understandable!
The ball surely still generates lift, though ;)
Mine behalf generally need it. Happens as you get older
It’s… falling with style.
It was gliding, neither is flight
Unpowered flight is still flight though
Both are flight if unpowered counts
I would have a hard time tossing a crumpled paper ball further than a good paper airplane would go.
Gotta crumple it as tightly as possible. A loose paper ball isn’t gonna go anywhere but a tight one will go far. It’s all about maximizing cross sectional density!
I won’t my paper airplane competition several times in grade school. I was a G. It went way farther than a tightly balled up piece of paper.
A good plane required mathematical precision, not fanciness. In theory they take about a minute to make. The son did not make a mathematically precise plane.
That’s what I was thinking. The most basic paper airplane, the kind that looks like a fighter jet, will cover a football stadium if thrown right.
I think the subtext is that the son spent 10 minutes making a piece of crap.
Yeah, this guy hasn’t seen many paper airplanes apparently
y’all clearly never played paper football.
I flicked one across the basketball court in highschool, bleachers to bleachers.
And sadly it’s still the conventional football players that get the trophies.
I think, a slingshot would toss further, also that was what I expected to happen
I make paper fly farther everytime I bring my briefcase on an international flight you losers.
The atoms that went into the paper that made my plane originally were blasted out of a supernova at relativistic speeds billions of years before becoming part of the cloud of dust and gas that coalesced into the Earth, which eventually developed life, which evolved into trees, some which were eventually chopped down and pulped and turned into paper, and then I took one of those pieces of paper and folded into a paper airplane and got on the same flight you did but I win because I FLEW FIRST CLASS, BITCH.
Says the person with a briefcase and paper in 2024
😔💼
surprised nobody mentioned the father’s flying skills yet
