Dads: Turn that bloody light off! It’s like Blackpool Illuminations in here. Do you think I’m made of money?
Dads at Christmas: I don’t think 96 strings of lights on the outside of the house is enough, love. Just popping to B&Q for another 47 and a 12ft illuminated reindeer.

Top tip. Use emojis to help communication in real life by simply acting them out with your face. Eg turn the sides of your lips up a bit to make a ‘smiley face’.
