The excerpt on Tim:
TIM DUNCAN: SCARY DAD
Dad with a heavy bag in his garage. Dad only seen at social occasions ducking out of his office to make a sandwich in the kitchen. Dad who is either scary because you see him drinking and looking totally sober no matter how many beers he knocks back, or because he doesn't drink at all, ever. Dad who sometimes shoots a compound bow in the backyard at targets at 10:47 p.m. Dad who smiled once, and man that was weird. Dad who once caught you all smoking weed out back, and who joined in before saying, "Don't ever tell anyone about this, or I will kill all of you. Slowly."
DAD WHO SOMETIMES SHOOTS A COMPOUND BOW IN THE BACKYARD AT TARGETS AT 10:47 P.M.
Dad who might have a mistress, but everyone including Mom is too terrified to ask. Dad who drives a really bland car that just reaffirms what real quiet fear looks like. Dad who would take you hunting, but you're too afraid to go because he probably makes you drink the blood of your first buck. Dad who has one oddly dainty hobby like raising orchids, but even that's kind of scary because if you knocked one over the look alone from his cold icy glare would kill you on sight.
Dad who dies and has like $15 million in a low-interest savings account, but is cremated at sea to save money. Successful dad. SCARY AS HELL DAD.
