I'm trying to do SE++ Secret Satans, so I asked my dad what he thought about the whole idea. He's willing to go for it if I can show him the community. So, I come here humbly asking you to find me a few examples of the best things I can show him to convince him the forums are okay.
Obviously, if you can find something from SE that would be best, but other subforums are probably fine too. Examples should:
show that you guys are not deranged psychopaths
not really be about ruuude titties or fat asses or cocks dicks lol
not be
too profane (a few "fucks" should be fine, but I don't think anything more explicit will really help my case)
Anyway, it would be much appreciated if anyone could find anything at all. Thanks!

You're young and your parents are trying to protect you, which is extremely admirable (though I'm sure it's frustrating at times for you), so just let your dad visit SE and get a feel for our collective personality and don't be too bummed out if he decides its a no go this year, ok?
We have our fair share of oddballs, but every single forumer from SE that I've met in real life has been a fantastic and fun loving person. That being said, I'd be happy to link you to my Facebook or my LinkedIn profile if your dad would be more comfortable seeing a face behind the internet.
QED.
I'm not sure if he'll let me show him specific things or if I'll just end up pointing him to the forums and watching him click around
And a personal example, last year Szechuanosaurus sent me a no-edges brownie pan from Scotland (it's awesome!) and I sent WaM this
There's a slight risk that Usagi will get me and I'll feel horrible for not getting such a good gift
Half the fun is figuring out what they'd like

This, She is Awesome! I lurk her Artist thread all the time:P but I never ask for one because she made me put my art degree to good use
We look like a pretty clean-cut bunch, wook's beard notwithstanding.
Dru and Usagi are positively adorable

You'll have to pick the right ones to show your dad
