With Roseanne coming back for a reunion show this coming year, we must remember the exact set of relatable moments that loveable Dan Conner was actually our dad in real life.
The show, which became a household name in the 1990s, has a host of Dan Conner moments that perfectly sum up our own fathers...couldn't we all wish John Goodman was our father?
1. When he says something wrong in front of company and your mom tries to be calm about it
A coworker of your mom stops by with their significant other, and your dad says something wrong about their lifestyle or their view on life...or they're not a fan of your dad's favorite sports team.
2. When you or your sibling has headphones on and he tries to talk to you
True story: I was dancing to 'Father Stretch My Hands, Pt. 1' by Kanye West one night in my room, AND HE DANCED JUST LIKE THAT FOR THE ENTIRE TWO MINUTES I WAS NOT LOOKING.
3. When he gives you the 'adult talk' about life choices like drinking or smoking
Self-explanatory, folks.
4. When you tell him and your mom to be normal in front of your date that night
You're about to go on this date that you've been looking forward to for a long time...except now your parents want to meet them before heading out. PANIC. JUST PANIC.
5. When although we all have arguments from time to time, we know he's a very good guy and he cares about his family
He is and always will be our father, and we should appreciate that more than we do. Thanks for being there, dad, and sorry about carving my name into that antique dresser you got from a deceased relative.
