‘Hey, Hey, Hey…It’s America’s Dad’: Bill Cosby’s bizarre Father’s Day tweet

Just when you thought social media couldn’t get any creepier on Father’s Day.

The Twitter and Instagram accounts for Bill Cosby sent out a message on Sunday night, saying “America’s Dad” wanted to make the day “a renewed oath to fulfilling our purpose.”

The post came minutes after O.J. Simpson fired off a tweet of his own, which included a video about him sleeping with Kris Jenner — and concluded with a “Happy Father’s Day!” wish.

“Hey, Hey, Hey…It’s America’s Dad,” wrote the Cosby accounts. “I know it’s late, but to all of the Dads… It’s an honor to be called a Father, so let’s make today a renewed oath to fulfilling our purpose — strengthening our families and communities.”

The message was followed by several hashtags, including #HappyFathersDay, #RenewedOathToOurFamily and #FarFromFinished.

While it’s unclear if Cosby — who is locked up in Pennsylvania for sexual assault — even had a hand in writing the post, social media users were quick to rip him for it.

“Strengthen families by not being unfaithful to your wife, by not treating young women like they’re on the menu, and by not being a bad example to young men. Asshole,” tweeted illustrator Colleen Doran.

“First OJ, now this? Blocked in a New York Minute,” wrote another person.

Simpson’s Father’s Day message focused on accusations that he slept with Kris Jenner, who was then married to his former lawyer, Robert Kardashian. “The Juice” closed out the video by wishing his 574,000 followers a “Happy Father’s Day” and telling them to “take care.”

“Father’s day is cancelled,” joked one Twitter user.
