Pics That Prove Dad Jokes Are Still Funny After All
You'd think that fatherhood somehow came with a manual full of jokes. All dads have the same set of jokes that magically pop into existence the second their first child is born.
These dads will at least get a chuckle out of you, proving that dad humor might actually be kind of funny.
"My Dad Was Responsible For Our Neighborhood Sign This Week, A Series"
This is the perfect illustration of what a dad's Twitter or Facebook feed looks like: a bunch of information and puns no one cares about, except it's plastered on a sign on the road for the world to physically see.
"Dad Bought Mom A New Mask"
You can always count on a dad's humor to make the best out of any situation. Have to wear a mask during a worldwide pandemic? They'll find a way to make you laugh every time you wear it, as well as everyone who sees you wearing it.
Quarantined With The Principal
Many kids were ecstatic they didn't have to go to school anymore thanks to the pandemic. Joke's on these kids...now they're stuck with their school principal dad with no escape.
"I Told My Dad His Hair Looked Like Einstein's And He Sent Me This"
If he looks like Einstein, why not fully embrace the persona and "become" him? Dads love to take a joke to the highest possible level, often completely killing it in the process, but the joke somehow gets funny again when they stick with it.
"My Dad Keeps Turtles And Started Training. Soon I'll Have My Own Personal Bodyguards!"
The Ninja Turtles need to watch out because this turtle is about to give them a run for their money. This dad got them training gear and everything. They will also be on a strict pizza-only diet.
"My Dad Made A Piñata For My Sister's Birthday"
In case you didn't catch on, that piñata is in fact Mr. Corona himself. Hopefully, that little girl beat it up on behalf of everyone that couldn't celebrate their birthday in 2020.
"So My Dad Got In My Phone Last Night And..."
No one knows where dads get all this self-confidence, but you can definitely count on them to act like the greatest beings to ever grace this planet. The truth is, what would we do without them?
"Dad Didn't Tell Us How To Live. He Showed Us."
The best dad strategy is if you can't beat 'em, join 'em! This way, everybody wins and he gets to relax by sunbathing while the kiddos live their best life in the kiddie pool.
"Today, I Babysat My Son For The First Time While His Mother Was Out"
The real crime here is that this dad was left alone with the child. Just kidding, this is quite an accurate depiction of life with a toddler and the "accidents" that come with that. But why call it babysitting if it's your kid?
"Told My Dad His Toast Could Only Be One Page"
Well, in his defense, he followed instructions... There were no specifications on the length of that one page. Let's just hope the font size was maxed out and this toast was given after dinner when the guests could nap in food comas.
"My Dad Mails My Dog Money And Giftcards On The Regular"
It's very common to feel like your dad treats the dog better than he treats you, but this is actually quite a sweet act as, clearly, the dog won't be going to the McDonald's drive-thru by himself.
"My Dad Said He Found Some Cute Baby Pictures Of Me And Handed Me These"
Insults just burn 10 times more when they come out of your dad's mouth. They know just how to hit the spot that hurts most. Like, basically, you looked like a racoon as a baby, and he would know.
"I Asked My Husband How Long The Kitchen Table Is. This Is What I Got"
When there's no measuring tape around, you improvise. Chances are he didn't actually even know the exact height of his son and sent her back "son's height" as the measurement.
"Me, Absolutely Wrecked On PS1 By My Dad"
You can see the pure look of heartbreak on the daughter's face in contrast to her smiling dad who barely even feels bad because he won fair and square. She'll get him eventually!
The Label Basically Set It Up For Him
The real issue here is who named a root beer "Not Your Father's"?! That was a setup to a joke just waiting to happen. I bet every day with this root beer he's made the exact same joke. It just keeps getting funnier, Dad.
"My Dad Said He Patched The Hole In The Barstool So Well, 'You Can't Even See It'"
I mean, he's not wrong...you can't see the hole anymore. Instead, you can see a giant strip of gray camo tape covering the hole. You can't have it all. It does give it character, however.
"Dropped In On My Kids' Zoom Classes—Payback For All The Interruptions To My Work Calls"
There is no denying that working from home with children around is a nightmare. It's only fair to turn it back on them, right? This costume will be haunting a few kids in their sleep.
Reflecting What He Feels On The Inside
"My first and newborn son is jaundiced and receiving light therapy. So as an artist turned dad, I made sure he let the nurses know how he was feeling behind that mask."
He probably wasn't wrong either.
He Came Prepared
"Put on my dad uniform today and began the journey of fatherhood! I had to use my dad's actual shoes 'cause my wife wouldn't let me buy dad shoes."
Who knows how long he had that outfit ready? Let's hope he gave the shoes back for his wife's sake.
"My Dad... 'Trying Out The Plot He Just Purchased'"
Given that this was taken in a graveyard, this is actually quite a morbid sense of humor, but if anyone is going to joke about it, you can "rest" assured that it'll be a dad.
"My Dad Wanted To Take A Nice Picture With A Waterfall In Yosemite"
Everyone's definition of "nice" is one thing and a dad's definition is another. Life's too short to be serious all the time anyway. We should all embrace this dad's childish spirit.
"I Promised My Daughter A Chocolate Cake If She Pooped On The Potty All By Herself. I Had To Pay Up"
A promise is a promise! Although he didn't need to be that literal with the text on the cake. That's not a cake I'd really want to have a slice of—there is too much of a negative association.
"My Dad Just Got Internet And Is Already Showing Videos To The Neighbors"
The best part is that the horses actually look quite invested in whatever he's showing them. But as usual, it's Dad who's laughing the most at the videos while everyone else just smiles slightly.
"I Thought You'd Like To Know That I'm Outstanding In My Field"
Dads really have a way with language. They know how to make great plays on words and speak quite literally. Technically, yes, he is outstanding in his field—can't argue there.
"My Dad Has Just Figured Out How To Use The Front Camera. This Is The First Picture He Sent"
Although this is all about dads, the dog really steals the show in this picture. The way his chin is resting on the dad almost making him look completely bald couldn't be more perfect.
A Fair Coach Makes No Exceptions
At least you can count on this dad to be fair. Well, that depends on how you look at fairness. Is it fairer to treat the kid like he would anyone else on the team, or to make an exception because he's the one who made him late?
"My Dad Recently Got A 3D Printer And Made A Stool Sample For His Doctor"
If his doctor is also a dad, then he will surely also find the humor in this. Something about literal jokes just comes naturally with being a dad. Where does that come from?
"My Son's First Day At School Today. I Handled It Really Well...."
You'd think that parents couldn't wait till their kids went off to school so they could have some peace and quiet back, but not this dad. He just can't let go.
"My Dad Was The Only One At The Office Today, So He Made This Picture And Sent It To My Family"
This does require some kind of technical skill I didn't even know dads were capable of, especially in comparison to the dad who just learned how to take a selfie.
"My Dad Got To Hold A 3-Week Old Baby Goat Yesterday"
If the expression "you're only as old as you feel" had a face, this would be it. We can always count on dads to be young at heart and keep the childhood spirit alive in us too.
