(I am requesting humorous ones, not actual reasons for chastising a suitor.)

I learned a new one, today… An interest in hobby horsing.

(My daughter’s getting old isn’t even two, so I have some time, but my nieces are getting to the age when boys are interesting.)

LOL the two best Dad vs daughters boyfriend dating scenea from Bad Boys and Den of Thieves, the videos are NSF, but funny as heck because it's what all dads with daughters have joked...

Sitting in the driveway and honking instead of being a gentlemen and coming to the door.

^^^^The mobile phone and texting pretty much takes care of that problem.

I was able to honestly say "Her uncle has 3,000 acres of wooded land with very few trails. Be sure she's home by 11:00, and not crying."

Not 'reasons' but just some clever/funny responses I've heard over the years.

The Bad Boys scene is still a good one.

Recall one where the boy picked her up & the dad shook his hand and palmed a 9mm across. Said "it moves faster after 11PM"

Then there's always the "I have land, a shovel, and 2000 acres, no one will find you"

My oldest is 14, so I'm sure these are not far off now.

Remember, that's someones son.

Meh, builds character

I have had a few words with my boys too about less than worthy women and what a worthy woman is

A Yankees fan.

Wears a toque, especially in summer.

Named Chip.

Can name any song sung by Seline Dionne.

Can spell Seline Dionne.

Had to look up what a toque was. Never heard it called that.

My first thought was chef's hat, followed by, why would anyone wear one outside of a kitchen?

Treasure this moment. When the boys start getting interested in your nieces is when the fun will really begin.

I was thinking torq:
google AI:
“A torc (often spelled torq or torque) is a large, rigid, or stiff open-ended metal collar or neck ring. It can be crafted from a single solid bar or from multiple intertwined strands, and it is usually worn permanently or semi-permanently.”

And, yeah, that would be notable on a suitor.

The Canadian variety, also spelled tuque or touque, is a knit winter hat complete with a Pom-Pom. My niece dated a guy who wore one year round. She dated Hat Guy for almost four years.

I also had know idea what a toque was...

Before I looked in the dictionary, I played what could it be....

Oh so wrong..

I was thinking piercing, or some type of body implant (form ridges, horns, or scales).
