About

Dad I Got Arrested For Drinking and Driving, continued Dad I'm In Debt, refers to a TikTok sound of a male voice (resembling Bojack Horseman) talking to his dad and telling him about different obstacles and milestones in his life. The original video was posted in 2019 by influencer Derek Laliberte (@disruptur). At first, the video was earnestly lip dubbed by creators akin to the story's heartfelt nature. However, it resurfaced in early 2024, following a trend in which TikTokers had their dads react to the sound either via text message or in real life.
