Ran into my dad when I was out and about with a friend. We sat down for a drink and conversation somehow turned to our respective work places. My friend says "I work at Google and there...". My dad interrupts him and legit goes "Really?! You work at Google? I Google at work!" with this stupid grin on his face.
I could hear loudly my friend's silent groan :)

...my mind raced with punchlines of the “about this far” variety. I tried a few on for size.
Then I realized he was looking distraught and realized I was potentially stomping on his blooming dad-joke career. So I stopped and said: “I don’t know son, how far?”
He still looked confused, and then I realized that he for real thought a “stud” was a measure of distance and this was a legit question. So I had to transition into google searching images of wall framing and what studs are. What a roller coaster of dad emotions.
Son: Dad I saw a Copperhead snake!
Wife shows son google images of sneks
Me (dad): Son, maybe you were mis-snaken.
My wife made one of those huge-ass squids plush (search squid plush on google image and you'll get the idea) and I need a good name for it.
I immediately though what better than a good pun ? But I can't for the life of me find a good squid pun, help please ?
