I’m not super close with my dad but I want to get him something small for Father’s Day. Being a girl is easy because I know what girls like. What is the dad/male equivalent of a pandora bracelet?? He is into cars, guns, meat, typical 50 year old man lol

Ammo for his guns

likesmart

That’s the same stuff I am into and I am not even 30.

OP ammo is always a good choice if you know what to buy. Or buy some nice steaks and whatever sides he likes and cook for him. If he’s into bourbon or cigars then get some of those and just hangout with him.

Tech gadgets are always fun, because a lot of their workshop is more old school

Something like Laser Tapemeasure, Laser Thermometers, Endoscope Camera

A Reloading Press for his bullets is also an option if he doesn't have one, bullets are so expensive right now I'm sure he'd like it

Portable Jump Pack for his car (they make them so much smaller and better than what he is likely used to)

JerkyGents is a monthly gift box subscription to jerky. Expensive, but a good gift. There are also bacon equilivants

Is his hair starting to thin yet? If so, a nice hat could be good. My dad is 70 and I got him a wool and cashmere baseball cap cause he always complains his head is cold now that he's losing his hair.

I know a guy who does aged wagyu. Maybe that’s an option!

NOT ammo because while it something that he will use, it won't have any special sentiment and nothing he will remember getting. Go for a Wagyu or dry aged steak; if he is into grilling, make it a dry aged prime rib roast so he will share it with you

smart

A box of hollow points for his ccw. Or some nice precision loads for his rifle.

Really nice bottle of booze. If he likes to grill, any kind of grilling accessories - like a grill kit, grill seasonings, etc.

Last night I went over to my friends house (she has 2 kids, 2 and 4 yo). She and her husband were asking me about my pregnancy and planning. And were asking what I’ve prepped to date. I’m only 13w2 days so I think it’s way to early for buying stuff, but I did mention we hired a baby nurse for when the baby comes. My friend completely berated me, short of calling me a bad mom already, saying “what is she going to do all day? Don’t you want to bond with your child?”. I’m so upset by this.
