Ryan Reynolds is recognizing Father's Day with a clever out of office reply that pitches his gin company as a great gift idea for dad.


Set to his email at Aviation American Gin, which Reynolds purchased in February 2018, the reply gifts users with pictures of the actor with his product.

Reynolds wrote that out of office replies should be "short, sweet and NEVER overly personal or emotional."

"Thanks for your email. As the owner of Aviation American Gin, I take all emails seriously. Especially ones with pictures.

This is only my 2nd OUT OF OFFICE REPLY. From what I'm told, it should be short, sweet and NEVER overly personal or emotional."

But that's of course totally relative, and Reynolds goes into a story about his strained relationship with his father, and how his gin in the perfect remedy for mending any family rift.

"Owning a gin company has been one of the great privileges of my life. And while it won't quite make up for the nonexistent relationship I had with my father, it always warms my heart to see others celebrating paternal relationships which have been built on trust, warmth, and totally natural amounts of eye contact. That's why this Father's Day is the perfect time to give your dad the best: Aviation American Gin.

While my own father may be long gone, the unspoken tension we shared is alive and well. But let me tell ya… if I could turn back time, I wouldn't be pouring Aviation Gin over his grave in the middle of the night. No sir… I'd be sittin' across from him, clinking glasses and having an effervescent giggle about the fact I now own the finest Gin company on planet earth. He might say stuff like, "Hey, this Gin is pretty damn good" and "Boy howdy, that's a gorgeous looking bottle" or, "I've never mentioned this before, but… you're enough.""

It concludes with Reynolds saying that while there are no second chances in life, purchasing his gin should be on everyone's gift list the first time around.

This Father's Day, you may not be able to give Dad a second chance, but you CAN get him a bottle Aviation American Gin. Or, if he died before either of you could even begin to comprehend the importance of closure, just get yourself a bottle.

Happy Father's Day,

Ryan Reynolds."

The OU Student Who Got A Zero On Her Bible-Based Essay Was Just Honored By Republicans—Because Of Course

Samantha Fulnecky, the University of Oklahoma student who received a zero on a psychology essay about gender after using the Bible as her only source, was honored by the Oklahoma House of Representatives with a special "Citation of Recognition" this week after her complaint—which resulted in a transgender graduate student being placed on administrative leave—made headlines.

Fulnecky's instructor Mel Curth, a transgender woman, assigned her students a 650-word essay about how gender stereotypes impact societal expectations of individuals. Fulnecky instead wrote about what the Bible says about "traditional gender roles," arguing that to refer to them as "stereotypes" is "demonic."

Trump Dragged After Making Ridiculous Claim About Randomly Finding Billions On The 'Tariff Shelf'

President Donald Trump was criticized after he claimed to reporters this week that officials in his administration suddenly found $30 billion they "never knew existed"—located on what Trump referred to as the "tariff shelf."

Tariffs are a tax on imported goods, usually calculated as a percentage of the purchase price. While tariffs can shield domestic manufacturers by making foreign products more expensive, they are also used as a tool to penalize countries engaged in unfair trade practices, such as government subsidies or dumping goods below market value.
