What do I give my bad dad for father's day? (lemy.lol)

So. Without trauma dumping, I'll simply say my dad is a bad dad. What's a father's day gift that says "you're dead to me, but I'm still doing things to keep drama at bay"?

The most boring father's day greeting card you can find and a fiver.

Edit: actually, don't spend the money on him, send him an electronic greeting card, equally boring, and donate, in his name, to a charity he'd hate.

It would be beautiful to donate to the local pride center in his name and just watch him seethe. That's such a perfect idea, since if he actually voices a complaint, he knows it makes him the asshole.

I saw you mentioned mornonism in a separate comment, if it's in Utah, that makes it even better.
