The third Sunday of June is Father's Day in 87 different countries around the world.
All told, 111 countries celebrate fathers at some time during the year.

With Father's Day upon us in the United States—and 86 other countries—it seems a good time to look at some of the eccentricities of fatherhood by checking Twitter where people asked "why do dads...."
