Shit My Dad Says is a Twitter feed started by Justin Halpern, who at the time was a semi-employed comedy writer.[1] It consists of quotes allegedly made by Halpern's father, Sam, regarding random subjects.[2] Halpern started the account on August 3, 2009, soon after moving from Los Angeles back to his parents' house in San Diego. He intended it only as a storage site for his father's salty comments, but a friend posted a link to it. Comedian Rob Corddry then tweeted the link, and that really "jump-started it" according to Halpern.[3] In less than a month, the page was mentioned by The Daily Show, a popular San Francisco blog called Laughing Squid and Forgetting Sarah Marshall star Kristen Bell.[4] As of 1 August 2010, the feed has nearly 1,600,000 followers.
