Don’t thank me, son, it was your mom who suggested we try a little roll play.
Just find a mirror and see yourself.
Last week, my grandmother got minor surgery on her eye. When my dad saw her come out with the dressing over her eye he nudged me and said 'Look! Nana got an ipad!'.
He then went up to her and says,'How'd the surgery go Patsy? Or is it Patchy now?'.
I totally laughed my ass off!
http://youtu.be/IHMxAjgQuZM I spent 8 hours a day for the last week to get this tribute to dad jokes out by Father's Day. I hope it will be appreciated here.
Me: Hey dad I'm thinking of studying abroad. Dad: Just make sure its the right broad hahahahaha
Me: I'm going to go check the mail
Dad: Check the females while your at it!
Wedding rehearsal dinner this past Friday. Father-of-the-groom is picking up the tab and the check arrives.
Father-of-the-bride: Hope you've got a good Visa!
Father-of-the-groom: Nope. I'm in the country illegally.
All dads in attendance laugh boisterously. Groom laughs while bride wonders what the hell she's gotten herself into.
Me: Yo dad you know what would be the best idea ever?
Dad: No what?
M: What if this year we ran the Scotia half marathon in the 1960s Adam West Batman and Robin costumes?
D: Haha seriously?
M: YES
D: Okay

So I was talking with a friend and said a really bad pun. After a sigh and a head shake he said "Man puns are terrible" , to which I followed up, puns are not terrible unless you write them down on paper (because the become "tearable")...
Took him a second to get it, but I was proud.
S: "I'm going to get a haircut." D: "Which one"
S: "I'm going to get a haircut." D: "Just one, that's a lot of effort for one cut."
S: "I'm going to get a haircut." D: "Don't cut any of mine!" (I'm bald)
S: "I'm going to get a haircut." D: "Don't cut the good one."
I do this until they sprain their faces rolling their eyes.
Him: I used to work at a youth prison
Friend: Doing what?
Him: I was teaching!
Friend: What were you teaching?
Him: Delinquents.
In the living room the curtains were drawn; the rest of the furniture was real though.
He was dead lifting.
Edit: Wow! Went to bed, went to work, checked this post, and holy hell did it blow up! Thanks for the awards, funny add-one and dad jokes! This sub is awesome!
Daughter: Dad, are you smart?
Me: Yes.
Daughter: Spell it.
Me: S-M-A-R-T
Daughter: You said you’re smart but you can’t even spell the word “it.”
She got me good.

Edit: My first front page post! I’d like to say thanks to all the wonderful people that upvoted this and made awesome comments. And screw you to the weirdos who went out or their way to say mean things. And thanks to my daughter. She is the real MVP in all this.
Me: “How was the gym?”
My wife (pregnant with our first): “It was awesome, I did 45 minutes of spinning”
Me: “Jeez, you must be dizzy!”
Wife: (just shakes her head in disapproval)
Is this a new joke or did I subconsciously steal it from somewhere? Also is it any good?! Am I ready to be a dad??
“No you’re not awesome. You’re daddy.”
- my son, 3 years old and better at dad jokes than me already.
True story, he says, “The crane business must be booming.”
So i (16M) like jokes. I told one to my (awesome dad joke enthusiast) music teacher that went something like.
him picking up a guitarr Me: why are you so sträng?
Sträng means guitarr string and also strict as in a strict teacher in Swedish.
He laughed a bit and said: "you are gonna make a great dad"
Thank you Pär, love ya buddy!
"I used to do drugs in the 70s, now I don't care what the temperature is"
So it was my first time meeting my girlfriend's family and it was a holiday so I had assumed it would go like how it is in the movies, the guy being constantly criticized by the girl's family and told he's not good enough but I must have lucked out as they absolutely loved me, after we had the traditional thanksgiving meal at around 4, her family and I went to the porch to drink and joke around. On the way out to the porch, buzzed me thought it would be hilarious to take someone's ukelele with me and hide it on the porch, I promised myself that before the day is over, I'd use that ukelele as a joke piece and get everyone to love me even more. So the evening is going great, everyone's drunk, laughing, telling funny family stories when all of a sudden, I stand up, get everyone's attention and I grab the ukelele, picked it up and said
"I like to play a little guitar"
The hysterical, drunken laughs of everyone on the porch was the highlight of the best Thanksgiving I've ever had.
I broke my nose in a really stupid horse-related accident in Montana.
Dad takes me to the local walk-in clinic. It's mostly empty, as it's around 7pm. As we're giving the insurance information and whatnot to the receptionist, Dad is busy doing that thing where he's texting without his cheaters so he's having to squint and hold the phone away and he's really not paying attention to some question the receptionist is asking...
So I whack him on the arm (with a towel held to my face) and say "Dad, pay attention."
Unblinking, he turns in my direction, without even looking directly at me, he mutters "Shut up, or I'll hit you again."
The receptionist was not pleased. He told the same joke to the doctor who stitched me up, and he laughed his ass off.
Actually, dad cracked so many jokes that the doctor kept having to pause while stitching up my nose. He took so long that the anesthetic wore off and I could definitely feel the last few stitches.
Dr: "Now sir, the stitches are going to cause your daughter's nose to swell quite a bit." Dad: "EVEN BIGGER!? That's amazing!"
Me: "Shut up Dad". Dad: (pinching his nose, speaking nasally) "Shut up Dad".
Unamused 18 year old daughter.
I just purchased and presented her with a fancy Octopus-shaped necklace, and to my utter dismay, I discovered it only had seven legs... "WTF, it's a Septopus?!"
Seeing I was obviously upset, she just smiled and replied, "I still like it, don't be an Upset-topus"...
I'm so proud of her right now.
We call this high coo.
He then proceeds to take out his dentures, brushes them and whistles.
If I go out to eat with my dad and we have any leftovers, I know every time what's going to happen.
Waiter/Waitress: "You want a box for that?" (Sounds like "You wanna box for that?")
Dad: Raises fists into traditional boxing pose "I think I can take you."
We were celebrating my other niece's 2nd birthday, when my 5-year-old niece comes up to me and says, "Hey Uncle, wanna play a game?"
"Sure. What game?"
"You pick a letter and I say three words that start with that letter."
Since it was her sister's birthday, I picked "B", assuming that she’ll probably say "Birthday".
She was like, "Okay… B... B... BB..."
I sat there for a second in a moment of defeat...
"Yes. Those are all words."
You little shit.
Edit for the Dad-impaired: "Be... Bee... BB..."
2nd Edit: Awesome! Each of my nieces got me to the top of this sub! Here's the one about the 2-year-old.
Scene: Dinner for my mom's birthday at a very nice (expensive) restaurant.
Waitress: Your steak comes with a choice of the vegetable of the day or a twice baked potato.
Me: Are twice baked potatoes and refried beans prepared similar ways or is that just a naming coincidence?
W: Laughing Oh my God. Our bartender and I were just talking about funny "dad jokes" on reddit! I didn't expect to hear one in person. Do you use reddit?
M: Umm... Yeah... I actually follow r/dadjokes but I'm not a dad and
W: You should post that joke there!
I have no idea if she will see this but my wife said I had to let everyone know about a redditor interaction. I hope she does because the food was awesome and she was a fantastic waitress beyond being a fellow redditor.
I still have no idea if twice baked potatoes and refried beans have any link...
I've been making dad jokes for years but my wife and I are expecting our first child and I've finally been making dad jokes while actually being a dad.
When we were in the hospital I got my wife a blanket. What was awesome was they were kept in this machine that was specifially made to heat blankets. I laid the blanket over my wife and siad. "do you think they keep these at womb temperature?" I heard a nurse laugh for a solid 3 minutes.
This is my legacy.
My 10 month old was sitting in her high chair and twisting and moving all over the place. My wife looked at me and told me to "Straighten her up"
I looked at her and said "What are you doing with your life? Do you want to be this way forever? It's time to grow up."...
My wife hasn't asked me to do anything since.
My grandfather or Pa, as I called him gave my an absolute gem.
He was actually my step mother's dad and we already called my other grandfather Papa, so we called him 'Pa Ulb' - Ulb being his surname.
He was an incredible artist and would paint awesome things for us or on our bedroom walls. I remember he painted me a massive Star Wars piece on one of my walls when Episode 1 came out. I was only about about 6 at the time and remember being scared of Darth Maul. From this we used to joke around that Darth Maul would come and get me if I did anything wrong. Sort of like a police officer watching my every move, to ensure I behaved.
This carried on as a joke until he died 2 years ago, when I had done something wrong he said he'd call the police and get Maul to take me away. When he did die he had just finished an incredible painting of Darth Maul as a police officer. It was amazing! My parents could make sense of it and weren't sure if it was him that had painted it, so they flipped it over because he used to always write Pa Ulb Art and the title of the painting.
Surely enough on the back it said Pa ulb Art - Maul Cop.

He's in his early 40s and just got a smartphone and a snapchat. More to come.
I went to my parents' house for dinner tonight. While my mom was cooking dinner, she asked me several times to check on the food in the oven. After the third time, my dad and I respond in unison (without planning) "Yep. Its still there."
What am i becoming?!
Son: Dad! I learned an awesome new trick at school in science class. Can I borrow your tie?
Dad: Let's see it.
Son: if we fold your tie in half, and roll the fat end toward the middle, and the thin end toward the middle, we have two rolls - one big and one small, both the same length, right?
Well, if I hold up the tie from the middle, and let go of both sides at the same time, which side will unroll first?
Dad: I have no idea.
Son (drops both ends, which open at the same time):
It's a tie, dad.

My younger brother is an ass, so is my dad to him. They annoy each other quite often, I think they like it. When my little bro (He was a teenager then) get angry he usually says to my dad "I will leave this house, and go to where none of you will never find, and I will never come back", my dad have many answers, like
- Please tell me the place, I want to run away too
- You can take your little sister with your too
- What documents do you need for that?
- Are you still here? Can I help you with packing
- Oh, that will make it easy for me, ha ha
I dont remember most of it, you can guess!
My brother usually go out and then forget about it, until one day he moved out, and comes back after a while, lol, of course! My awesome dad died 7 years ago, he was annoyingly humorous.
Watching tv, and a tv spot for Godzilla comes on.
Me: That's going to be freaking awesome.
Dad: Oh yeah?
Me: Yeah, you know he's(Godzilla) the biggest he's ever been here.
Dad: No, he was bigger in Japan.
He was mighty pleased with himself.
Buddy - "just dug a hole in the concrete with out any problems"
Me - "nice, looks like it cement to be"
Buddy - blank stare "you should be a dad so your 'dad jokes' can just be 'jokes'"
That was a couple weeks ago, so this past weekend I asked how it was going.
Buddy - "just finished laying the tile down."
Me - "awesome, I grout you'll have any problems here on out."
Buddy - "get out of my house."
Me: "Dad I'm thirsty."
Dad: "Hi thirsty! I'm Friday, wanna go out Saturday and have a sundae?"
I have loved this ever since I began understanding just how awesome these jokes are.
My dad and I were getting our free slushies for free slushy day because fucking free slushies. Anyways, we get in the line and he sees the Pina Coolada flavor is in stock and running, and out of nowhere he shouts "Oh awesome, they have Penis Colossus! That's my go to slushy flavor."
Most embarrassing moment of my life, partially because a girl I had a crush on was there and he knew it. Well played Dad, well played.
“No you’re not awesome. You’re daddy.”
