You might as well write him a 'I am a dad but I'm still a waaacky guy' placard and force him to wear it around his neck. Pic: Annie Mole/Flickr
The 'Daddle'
It's "a saddle for horeyback rides from Daddy". Give the guy a break. Pic: Daddle.com
Olde worlde shaving sets
Looks pretty but not practical if your dad has spent an adult lifetime shaving with a triple-blade safety razor. Safety first, kids. Pic: Dharion/Flickr.

Socks
Even if he has a fine set of calves on him like playwright George Bernard Shaw here, he probably has a plethora of socks. A sock drawer-ful, in fact. Pic: AP Photo/PA Archive.
Anything with 'Best Dad' on it
It doesn't have to be socks. It could be the 'World's Best Dad' mug/tie/notepad/pleatherette manicure set. Nice sentiment but say it, don't spell it. Pic: nixternal/Flickr.

Novelty cufflinks
Ask yourself two questions: 1. How often does your dad wear cufflinks? 2. How often does your dad wear cufflinks depicting the bottom of a naked lady? Pic: ebay.ie
