James Breakwell is the epitome of what the Internet would call "dad goals" - though with 4 daughters to manage, he might not always feel like it. The Indianapolis-based comedy writer and family man has had Twitter enamored since April 2016, when tales of his humorous clan first went viral, and he's showing no signs of stopping - over 750 thousand followers later. Exploding Unicorn, as Breakwell's comedy platform has come to be known, is a collection of hilarious conversations between the brutally frank dad and his eccentric daughters, as well as a select few with his wife. The anecdotes are short, but together they offer a perfect snapshot of the family dynamics we all juggle in our own lives. Breakwell's first book, a hybrid of parenting advice and satire entitled Only Dead on the Inside: A Parent’s Guide to Surviving the Zombie Apocalypse, is due in October 2017. Have a look at some of James and his family's latest adventures below, and be sure not to miss our previous post about them.

    I told my mum something similar. My delivery wasn't nearly as cutely stated, nor was her reply.

    Hey, I have an adult son and we spend time at the zoo and botanical gardens. Whatever I gotta do to spend time with my 23 year old - catching Pokémon is just a bonus.
