KANSAS CITY, MO—Applebee’s announced Friday that all 2,000 of its locations will soon offer a menu of every-other-weekend specials created especially for divorced fathers and their children. “These delicious meal options are perfect when you’re coming back with your kid from a movie or minor-league baseball game, or just feel like the two of you need to get out of your apartment for a little while,” Applebee’s president Mike Archer said of the new specials, which follow last year’s successful introduction of the restaurant’s Broken-Home-Style Burger deals for parents who have recently told their children they’re getting divorced. “Whether you’d like a quesadilla appetizer that sets just the right mood for asking questions about the past two weeks of school, or want to discuss your ex-wife’s current boyfriend over our famous Brownie Bite dessert, we’ve got something for every father and the child he sees twice a month.” Archer added that for a limited time, the specials will also include a coupon redeemable for a well drink after the father has dropped the kid off Sunday night and returned to sit at the bar alone.

brognagotjokes Seriously Applebees should do this! No joke.

I dont whether to be happy or sad about this one.

This was my childhood but I still think it’s funny.

Dear Applebee’s, please don’t let Dad drink.

Wtf, man?! We just tryna love the kid more than our dad loved us.

This is so sad because I wish it were true. I know some of those fathers...

OMG, that would have been great when I was growing up except it would have to have been every week as my dad had me one week and my brother the other week. My dad loves a good discount, lol.

OOOF

Sometimes even the Onion goes a little too far.
