Serena Williams' husband and Reddit co-founder, Alexis Ohanian recently shared a hilarious glimpse into his special bond with his father, Chris.

Ohanian took to social media and shared a clip of a humorous exchange with his father, inquiring whether he had "rizz," which is internet slang for charisma or charm.

"Would you say that you have rizz, dad?" he asked.
"Don't ask this. I do not," his father replied.

As Ohanian continued his interrogation, his father stated that the situation was similar to the time when the 40-year-old had referred to him as an "OG," and he had been equally clueless about the term's meaning.

"Has anyone ever told you that you have rizz?" he said.
"That's like when you were telling me I was an OG and I didn't even know what the hell that was," his father responded.

Ohanian explained that "OG" stands for "original gangster," and confidently asserted that he was correct in using the term to describe his father.

"It's an original gangster," Ohanian said.
"Well, yeah I figured it out," his father replied.
"Well I was right, wasn't I? Whatever context it was, I think I was right," Ohanian added.

His father disclosed that Ohanian had called him an "OG" in terms of being a travel agent. Ohanian's father owns Infinity Global Travel, a successful travel company based in Taneytown, Maryland.

"In respect to maybe being a travel agent," his father said.
"Yeah OG on the travel," Ohanian responded.

Ohanian shared the clip of his conversation with his father on social media and humorously remarked on their "special relationship."

"My dad & I have a special relationship," he posted on X.
