Good Jokes Puns

Research published in the British Psychological Society's journal, The Psychologist recently used r/DadJokes among other sources:

"How, for one thing, are we to make sense of the apparent popularity of dad jokes given that they are explicitly said to be ‘unfunny’? Even those definitions of the genre that do not specifically use the word ‘unfunny’ include similar slights, calling them ‘lame’ (Dictionary.com), ‘hackneyed’ (OED), or ‘embarrassingly bad’ (Urban Dictionary). Yet many people clearly find dad jokes funny in some sense. On the popular social network Reddit, the community r/DadJokes, which is specifically dedicated to sharing dad jokes, has a staggering 8.8 million members."

and found that:

"By continually telling their children jokes that are so bad that they’re embarrassing, fathers may push their children’s limits for how much embarrassment they can handle. They show their children that embarrassment isn’t fatal. For a child who is approaching or has entered adolescence, which appears to be a sensitive period for sociocultural processing (Blakemore & Mills, 2014), this is an immensely valuable lesson. In this sense, dad jokes may have a positive pedagogical effect, toughening up the kids who are begrudgingly exposed to them."

Because they like to get a long little doggie.

We just had my mother in law’s funeral on Saturday and during the catered luncheon, a bunch of us have gotten bad food poisoning or Noro Virus. I myself spent last night enduring vomiting, cramping, etc. and my wife is even worse than me. So far, about 20 of us are messed up. Anyway, I’m trying hard to be more positive while acknowledging that this freaking sucks. Y’all have such great ideas on here let’s see what you can come up with…that’s not vomit.

They work on many levels.

Because I've only heard a bit here and a bit there and I have to say they made little sense to me, may as well be a bunch of 1s and 0s :/

But I realized they Argon

Yule be sorry.

But I don’t tell them without charging.

But they usually go over peoples heads

I guess it's all in the delivery.

As a new dad I finally feel qualified to 'post' these jokes.

I can’t zinc of any more.

Right now I'm busy calculating sum.

Come on, I'm all ears.

Because most punchlines are a stretch.

I'm trying to come up with one but Israeli hard.

Buses, students, drivers, traffic, behavior; any school bus jokes at all! I just got a new job as a bus driver and can't find any!

But pickle jokes? Those are my bread and butter!

well try THIS one on for sighs!

I don't know I've been stuck in here for 2 hours.

It’s a rare medium well done

My 10 year old was putting away her laundry, and I noticed that she had a large pile of unfolded socks. I asked her why she hadn't put them away yet, and she said, "I can't because these are all single."

I said, "I know why they are single. They haven't found their sole mates yet."

She literally snorted, and told me that I finally made a good one.

I think they're purrrfect.

All of mine are b'aa'aad

So now I tell jokes to mom.

... about a species of pig-like, South American jungle-dwelling , herbivorous mammals with prehensile noses; but just recently they've started to Tapir off

First one is on the house

We’ve been in a bad joke email war for some time now. It’s been so long, I don’t remember how it started. It may have happened when I moved out after staying with him and my mom for a while.

Long story short: I’ve got a lot of dad jokes to share with y’all, because we are constantly sending “dad jokes” to each other. And I have hundreds of jokes that are LITERALLY from my dad.

All the best jokes? They are headed your way!

Here’s some to get you started. I am copying and pasting them exactly as he writes in the email so you can get the full “dad” effect. He’s 72.

Everyone who can, take a moment out of your day to call your dad.

————————————

the male pumpkin told the female pumpkin ................you look gourdish today boo me love dad

————————————

Exaggeration is a billion times better than understatement..........................love, dad

————————————

Is it true that if you teach a wolf to meditate it becomes an "aware wolf" ?

————————————

If swimming is good for your figure how do you explain whales?

Bad aina, I almost didn't send it.......................................Love dad

————————————

Have a good night everyone, and see you soon!

I guess I prefer the mother tongue.

Kid: Hey dad, look at that! (Points with his finger to something off in the distance.)

Me: (Looking in direction he's pointing) What? Where? I don't see anything.

Kid: (Still pointing) Right there, look, you see it?

Me: (Still looking, getting annoyed that I don't see it) WHAT? What is it??

Kid: (Holding up the same finger) It's my finger!

I have been doing this to him recently and it always gets him. I love that he's able to totally get me with it now.

Edit: MY oldest, not Mt oldest. Not sure what the oldest mountain is, but it probably isn't as funny as my oldest kid is becoming.

People don't general lee find them funny

And instead it's a bunch of people being asses to each other.

What a bummer. You'd think people on r/dadjokes could act a bit more grown-up. Mark your dirty, non-dad joke jokes as NSFW or post them somewhere else. Stop pointing out again and again that those posts exist. And let's see some actual stupid, silly jokes.

Please. Whatever side you're on in this, you're being dumb. And that's the jokes job.

We all knew it...
