- What exactly made time with dad "the toughest test imaginable?" The ad showed dads making some unpleasant faces and ended with a woman saying, "good luck, babe."
Also, leave the Simpsons alone. Homer isnt a bumbling father, he's a bumbling person. Unlike the other examples, he's not much good at anything. The show also has Flanders who is the "ideal" father. I guess I get a little sensative when the Simpsons name is muddied.
