good-time dad

A dad who has little to no interest in the lives of his children other than keeping up the appearance of a good father. Dad's such as this will buy their children meaningless material gifts, junk food, and occasional activities to win their child's affection, but will never be involved in a meaningful way beyond a token appearance.
Little Johnny has been in soccer for 5 years. Johnny's dad, Toolbag, shows up at one soccer game and continually refers to this event as a reference to his involvement in Johnny's life. Toolbag could be described as a "good-time dad."

Good one, dad 

A phrase first heard in the BB gun/coming of age movie The Christmas Story. This can be applied whenever a child wishes to butter up his father in order to gain a favor. Over reaching laughter and enthusiasm follows when a marginally funny line is uttered by the dad. It's usually a blatantly transparent attempt as the favor is requested only a short time after the "good one, dad."
Dad: "Look at that! I guess people in fancy cars don't have to obey stop signs!"

Son: (Fake laughter...) "Good one, dad! .......can I have twenty bucks"?

Fogey/fogy /fougi/ sl. (early 18C+, orig. Scot) old-fashioned, stuck-in-the mud.
Person with old fashioned ideas which he is unwilling to change: Come to the disco and stop being such an old fogey!
You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
