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"?

Shackteâu

A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.

Shackteâu - We thought it was an abandoned shed until the realtor called it a rare alpine Shackteâu with unobstructed views and listed it for $2 million.
