80s Song Puns

Love Shaq

It was subtle, and you'll need to know some 80s trivia. It was really bad, but I also think it was pretty clever.

I was driving to Dave and Buster's with my dad, his girlfriend, and my younger siblings when "This Is It" by Kenny Loggins came on the radio.

Dad: "Is this Kenny Loggins? It sounds like him."

Dad's GF: "Yeah, I remember this song. It was before he got big."

Dad: "Ah. He's pretty lucky he cut Footloose, then."

Brother: "What's Footloose?"

Dad's GF: "It was a movie that came out when-"

Me: "Wait... Dammit, Dad."

Dad's GF: "What? ... Oh, God. Really, Chris? Really?"

He spent the rest of the 45 minute ride giggling like a schoolgirl.

I overheard a father taking to his 3 year old child in Waitrose in the frozen section

Boy: Dad, that's ice Dad: ...Ice Baby. Boy: Huh, what do you mean? Dad: Don't worry, it's just a naff song from the 80's.

I was in the car with my dad today and a 70's/80's rock song came on.

"Is this Boston?"

"No. This is (town we were driving in)."

Rock on, dad.
