One supportive father thinks he’s found a solution to his gay son’s money worries — just find a sugar daddy!
Twitter user Andrew Palmer shared the hilarious text response he received from his dad after telling him money might be a little tight, joking that “coming out to my dad last year was a mistake.”

“I think I’m getting a new apartment so I’m gonna be a little broke,” he texted his father.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
His dad won the internet when he replied: “I thought you told me there was this thing called daddys up there that can help with financial stuff.”

That’s cute as heck.
SamB
Nice to see he’s raising his son to be a user, instead of relying on himself.
Bosch
You’re so joyless, you can’t even recognize jokes.
Den
Is he joyless, or just stupid?
The right wing is not known for intellect.
SamB
Den: You get your health information from an app. You probably get your news from Tik Tok, in easy to digest 15 second clips.
barryaksarben
OMG the one thing in this entie world you can count on is that right wing deplorables have NO concept of a joke. the one trait they all share is studity
SamB
Barry: If you’re going to attempt a burn, make sure your spelling is accurate or it’ll just fall flat.
Bosch
SamB: you gonna make fun of where Den gets his health information, after spending days defending proven liar Dr Malone? *Sad trombone noise*
SamB
Bosch: You believe he’s a liar, I don’t. I think what Malone said needs to be explored. You bought into one narrative, I’m still researching.
Bosch
Yeah, because I get my information from official national statistics offices, not from radio doctors. Raw data is far more useful than angry old men.
But I’m sure you think every hospital all over the world.must be forging this data. And somehow your boyfriend Malone has access to secret data that he can’t show us because shhhh it’s so secret.
SamB
Bosch: He’s not a radio doctor, he’s a pioneer in mRNA and was on a podcast talking about his opinions. You don’t like what he said, that’s fine, but unless you’re a virologist you just have to do the research, just like me. So do I know he’s right? Nope, but what he’s saying makes sense to me. The places you get your information from support the narrative you want to believe. The difference between us is that I’m not trying to actively shut down where you get your info. I’m refuting it, but it has a right to be out there. You want something you don’t like to be shut down, no room for more than one opinion.
Bosch
It’s taking you an awful long time to research the fact that he supplied bogus numbers about vaccine deaths. Those statistics are just publicly available.
If people were dropping dead from vaccines, we would know by now.
What’s actually happening is that the majority of deaths lately are unvaccinated patients.
Explain to me how it’s responsible of Malone to spread vaccine mistrust with false data, when the unvaccinated are dying? Are the hospital s all over the world lying to us? Every doctor and every nurse in the frontlines.is just making stuff up?
Also, research doesn’t happen in a vacuum. If Malone had made any of these findings, he would have made them together with other researchers. Where are they? Is he hiding them?
Bosch
“He’s not a radio doctor, he’s a pioneer in mRNA ”
He WAS a pioneer in mRNA. Now he does radio interviews, podcasts, public appearances, etc.
And none of that excuses making up false data about vaccine deaths.
Bosch
I don’t know why I’m still arguing with you. Why should I expect you to recognize a lie when you can’t even recognize a joke?
SamB
Bosch: It’s not a joke, it’s not even real. Someone put that pic together and is pretending his father is too cool for words. Everyone is all “YAS!!!” but really what someone needs is a parent not a friend.
DarkZephyr
Dear Lord. That flew right over your head.
Manray
What a bitter sad dull bitch. Tiresome,shallow whiner.
I’m guessing you have the face of someone who already has to pay cash for sex.

I know a “Doctor” who has proven that the right just don’t get jokes, nor can they make them. There’s a reason why most comics are liberal.
Cam
AWwww, the right wing troll account will ALWAYS, use any excuse to attack LGBTQ people and defend bigoted Republicans.
Sweetie, I love that you’re so bad at trolling that you continually expose yourself.
rangerwilcox
LOL, great dad

He should thank his lucky stars his dad did not throw him out. But as far as a sugar daddy, no man in their right mind would want to be that DEPENDENT. Sugar daddies do exist but generally they have very exacting standards and most of the time when you grow older they will find a younger man and you are out on your butt. So stand up and be your own man.
barryaksarben
Not always, I got a sugar daddy at 45 and we stayed together until he died. He had 3 homes and took me around the world. we met at a gay bar and he pursued me even tho I had decided I was done with romance until he won me over. The only way I would agree to be with him was if it was made clear to his family that we were in love and I was not a golddigger. He did pay for most things when we were together but when he got cancer and it got bad I took him to have his will written and he turned to me and asked “what do you want” no limits he siad but having fallen in love with his family who had been promised the florida house I told him I wanted a few small trinkets we got in our travels together. I think his family was a bit surprised but not all sugar daddy relationships are just money for sex. We laughed together when his older friends would meet me and immediately assume we shared nothing but a bed.

Homosexuality has been intricately intertwined with transvestism and prostitution since ancient times. It is only in the modern era that we have begun to attempt to untangle and define the various strands of identity, morality and meaning. The current proliferation of the ‘sugar baby’ mentality is a retreat from the demands of equality, integrity and self-reliance required by participation in a democratic society.
barryaksarben
no, if there are two consenting adults it isnt necesarily bad. Like you yourself say all this is has been with us from the beginning. Oscar Wilde was with a younger man who was financially unstable. We need to embrace our total community without judgement. You see straight people in these relationships – it is human behavior
Bosch
Everyone was intertwined with prostitution since ancient times. And actually, homosexuality was a properly integrated facet of many pre-christian societies, from Europe to Polynesia. It’s an Abrahamic whig history narrative that gays have always been promiscuous and socially less valuable, because that justifies their mission to save us from “sin”.
And the sugar daddy phenomenon has way more to do with individual psychology than it does with social equality.
Cam
Or it was a good natured joke between an out of the closet son and his dad.

Got to love that dad and his sense of humour !
