‘Hot Model Dad’ Tweet Becomes a Meme, Here Are Our Favorites

So maybe you’ve seen this “my dad is a model” meme.
No? Ok here’s the breakdown:
Collin Hayslett is a college student. His dad, Clint, was a pastor for over 20 years and decided he wanted a change. Fair enough.
While getting a haircut, his barber Kevin told him he should model. Totally normal, my barber is constantly chatting me up.
Oh, by the way, his barber is also the marketing manager for a sunglasses company.
Didn’t see that coming, did you?
Anyway, he convinced Collin’s dad to do some modeling for the company and that’s where things got interesting.
After the now infamous photo shoot, Collin posted the photos on Twitter with a message that will forever be weaved into the deep depths of the world wide web.
My dad is 45, pursuing a modeling career, and I’ve never seen him happier. He told me he’s just waiting for a chance to blow up. So, Twitter, meet my dad. pic.twitter.com/zYSmZGbPCn

Ok yes, this guy was made to model sunglasses. I mean if that’s not every sunglasses ad you’ve ever seen you are lying to yourself.
While the genuine sentiment behind Collin’s post is one we can all appreciate, you have to admit that this one was ripe for parody.
So without further adieu… Here. We. Go.
