Sweet Sugar Puns

So my dad is usually really quiet and "submissive" right? Like he doesn't do a lot of loud things except find the distance the chicken had to travel to cross the road in a bad dad joke.

Anyway, whenever one of us(a 6 people family) comments about something in a small group of 1-3 people, he's always got all the information. He just... knows. For example(this happened like 10 minutes ago): Me: "Wow, this tea is pretty sweet today." Mom: "well, did you sweeten it?" Me: "I d-" My dad shakes his head. Dad: "No, the person who made the tea added double the amount of sugar you previously added to the jug." Mom: "Who?" And then he points to the bedroom before I can tell my mom who made my glass of tea.

Something just popped up on my laptop and gave me a jump-scare. I said "Oh Fudge, what is that?" My GF replied with "It's a sweet made from sugar, butter and condensed milk".

Years ago I used to use a LexisNexis database of companies that would give corporate information like name, address, and general business description. While most of them were pretty bland, there were a bunch of them with some really cheesy puns, and over a few years I built quite a collection.

Today I share with you "NEXIS IS RIDICULOUS.txt":

When the trunk was opened to reveal numerous bags of cocaine...

Me: Look at all this powdered sugar!

Dad: Sweet!

We were at McDonalds getting a coffee when she asked me to go to the separate counter and get her come sugar.

I replied with, "Why? You're already so sweet."

The woman making the coffee dropped it because she was laughing so hard and the old couple behind me burst out laughing.

I can't wait til I become a father.

Dad: Did you add sugar to that spaghetti sauce you gave me? The meatballs I cooked in them last night came out kind of sweet.

Me: Nah, Dad. You just made sweetish meatballs.

I could see the pride in his eyes.

Waitress: "What can I get y'all to drink?"

Grandpa: "I'll have a sweet tea."

W: "Well we only have unsweet so you can add your sugar how you like."

G: pointing at my grandma " Well I don't think she'll fit, and I'm not sure if I like her!"

Whenever we're going somewhere that requires a substantial amount of driving time (at least two hours) my family stops at a McDonalds or something for food. My dad will always order a coffee and be a little unclear about his order so the server will have to ask if he wants sugar in his coffee to which he will reply "no thanks, I'm sweet enough".
