Nothing is more essential to a night out than figuring out who will be the DD. Seriously, if you do not believe me check out this heart-wrenching Budweiser commercial and you will see the importance of a designated driver.
Whichever unlucky soul got chosen to babysit quickly realizes that their once mature fellow students are now behaving like that of a small child.
As any DD can attest, the things you say to your drunk friends are the same things you would say to a child. For that reason, the role of DD can be more aptly called Designated Dad.
"For the last time, we are not going ANYWHERE until you put on your seat
belt!"
"I told you to go to the bathroom before we left!"
"Who wants food?"
"Alright, let's play the quiet game!"
"Who wants to listen to the radio?"
"Wait, what's wrong, why are you upset?...What do you mean you don't know?"
"Did you hear a single thing I just said?"
Despite all the trouble they go through, the Designated Dad is a real hero and stepped up when no one else wanted to. For that, we salute you. Thank you for keeping all of your "children" safe even though you may have hated every second of it.
