Posted on | October 27, 2009 |

Cartoon dads are great because they represent, generally, negative stereotypes about a particular race or culture. That makes them great because we often see flaws in them that exist in us - we can relate to them and can laugh at how silly we can be.

There is one selection on the list that is controversial and some might consider to be a bit of a stretch. You should identify the selection once you see it. Let us know what you think:
