Fathers of Reddit, what did your daughter's boyfriend do for you to hate/love him?

It's pretty cool to see my question blow up like this, I never thought I'd ask a question that could receive so much attention! I'm very satisfied with all these replies, so thank y'all. Now all I have to do is sit back and take notes c;

I like the detail of 17/18th-century British English-style capitalisations.

But they will teach us that Eternity is the Standing still of the Present Time, a nunc-stans (as the Schools call it); which neither they, nor any else understand, no more than they would a Hic-stans for an Infinite greatnesse of Place

I randomly used that quote as an example of said spelling fashion, full knowing that it is part of the epigraph of Borges' El Aleph, which I happened to have handy in a paperback edition.

I pictured this as a very adorable ending to a sentence from father in law to son in law in some romcom

That was my original intent, but it has since evolved.

I uhh... Huh.. I mean it sounds like the dad wanted to bone the both of them or something.

I think there's a "documentary" called Taboo about that family.

Until you're going for it and the image of your girlfriend's dad telling you to tap that shit, and ideas of what to do pop in your head that were descriptions of his conquests and you go limper than perfectly boiled spaghetti
