If you don't follow @OdysseyRejects on Twitter, do yourself a favor and hit that up. They come up with hilarious ideas for Odyssey articles as a joke. After searching through all 179 tweets, I found one similar to this.

1. He goes by many names.

Do you address him by his real name? Is a nickname okay? Or his professional name?

2. He cares about his kids.

Your dad wishes he could be so articulate.

3. He has strong political views.

Eminem is very vocal about his dislike for Trump, and your dad is vocal about everything political.

4. He's won awards.

Shady's Grammys ain't got nothing on your dad's fourth place bowling trophy.

5. He's a pun master.

*groans*

6. He's the king.

Eminem was named the King of Hip-Hop by Rolling Stones magazine in 2011. Your dad says he's king of the house.

7. He knows fashion.

Oh, he can dress well, but he chooses not to.

8. Other kids wish he was their dad.

They'll even go so far as to claim he is their dad.

9. His favorite video game is Donkey Kong.

What is it about a monkey and barrels?

10. He gives the best advice.

So wise.

11. He can cook.

Eminem once worked as a short-order cook. Your dad can turn on a grill.

12. He's a leader.

When asked why he doesn't follow anyone on Twitter, Shady responded with: "Always be a leader, not a follower." I'm sure your dad leads something.

13. He has a wide vocabulary.

Your dad uses words like incidentally and authoritative. Eminem has used about 9,000 unique words in his raps.

14. He knows what kids like.

Not only does he know what they like, but he encourages their likes.

15. He doesn't like computers.

He doesn't want to spend all day on that machine. He has better things to do.

16. He has strong feelings about Vanilla Ice.

You can't tell if your dad likes him or not, but Eminem has called him "fake".

17. He likes to yell.

He likes to make sure his point gets accross, and the best way to do that is to yell.

18. He's the greatest.

Both your dad and Eminem are the best, and they know it.


Now you can say your dad is officially as cool as Eminem!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
