Caring, understanding, fun to be around; there are many ways to be a good father figure. And after reading Kane Hsieh’s Father’s Day-inspired Twitter thread, it’s clear that his dad possesses a lot of these premium features. Oh, and the man is basically the Asian version of Ron Swanson. Of course, if you examine them under a microscope, there are some differences between them — most notably, the stache — but if you look at them as whole individuals, it’s impossible to imagine a stronger resemblance. Check the interesting stories about Kane Hsieh’s father below!

    And if you’re wondering why there’s no #14, the man asked his son to delete it for “professional” reasons

    Even Nick Offerman, the actor who plays Ron Swanson, was impressed with Kane’s thread

    To those of you who are unfamiliar with the manly man, the myth, the breakfast lover, Ron Swanson, he’s a famous character portrayed by Nick Offerman in the NBC comedy-drama Parks and Recreation. Ron was the Director of the Pawnee Parks and Recreation Department for six years.

    He believes in the elimination of government waste, and during his tenure always brought the department in under budget. Ron thinks the government should be privatized and follow the business model of Chuck E. Cheese’s family entertainment chain.

    Ron is very patriotic and mocks every country except America. For example, when he was in London, he made fun of Big Ben and refused to use British currency, explaining that American Dollars are the most beautiful paper in the world.

    Swanson knows various self-defense techniques and keeps to himself. He doesn’t trust technology or give out personal information, even blacking out his records on Government documents and discarding photos of himself. When he learned about online cookies and Google Earth, Ron trashed his computer and switched to a burner phone instead.

    People quickly fell in love with Kane’s dad

    I laughed way too hard at the one about him visiting aquariums and looking at the fish that he had either eaten or aspired to eat.

    This is a son who not only loves his father, but loves him as a unique person, rather than only in relation to himself. And his father IS wonderfully unique :) Yeah, the aquarium story is the best.

    What a wonderful Dad you have. I reckon you could make a TV series around him.

    I usually think these types of articles are kinda dumb and you can tell the person is over exaggerated. But I like this one and seems legit

    My Dad just passed away on Mother's Day. He used to take us out camping from time to time. One particularly long trip spanned from Seattle, WA to Banff, Alberta...down to Oregon and California as far as the Redwood forest. While outside Banff..we spotted a moose crossing the country road. Photo Op!! My dad approaches the moose and stands ready to take the pic. The moose stops and turns towards my Dad. He says "Be ready to run to the truck, these guys have been known to charge." He turned around, we'd already run back to the truck and were discussing options for how to get to the nearest hospital just in case. My sister was 14, I was 10.

    The Blue Jays! LOL, that's just too much. This is a great post, made me laugh a lot and think about my own dad. I love that he wouldn't let go of that car too.
