Dad Jokes and Puns

You’ve heard them before, and you’ve probably made your own share. Dad jokes and puns are a staple of the awkward conversation, and a quick way to make someone laugh. Whether you’re looking for just a quick laugh, or are trying to get the attention of the person across the bar, you can’t go wrong with a dad joke.

Ever been on the receiving end of a dad joke? If so, you know what we’re talking about. If not, here’s a brief explanation: A dad joke, also known as a groaner, is a corny pun or lame joke, usually made by a father. Usually, the humor lies on the fact that the dad making the “joke” is unaware of how bad it is (if you can even call it a joke).

What Everyone Should Know About Dad Jokes

Here’s what you need to know about dad jokes:

1) Dad jokes can be about anything. It doesn’t matter if it’s a pun on words or an inappropriate joke, as long as it makes the dad feel ike he’s being funny (even if he isn’t), then it’s fair game in the world of dad jokes.

2) Dad jokes are specific to the dad in question. Dad jokes are not made for a group of people or for the rest of the world, they’re made to make one person feel good. This is why you’ll never hear a dad joke on National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation or The Hangover. “Why did the turkey cross the road” is an acceptable parody on all sorts of topics, but it doesn’t mean it fits into the realm of dad jokes.

3) Dad jokes are usually terrible puns. Dad jokes usually aren’t about a particular joke, and often they’re so bad that they don’t even make sense.

4) Dad jokes can be creepy.
