A horse walks into a bar and orders a pint of beer.

The bartender says, “You come in here pretty often. Do you think you might be an alcoholic?”

The horse says, “I don’t think I am,” and immediately vanishes from existence.

This joke is about the famous Descartes theorem, “I think, therefore I am.” I thought about putting that part at the beginning, but that would have been putting Descartes before the horse.

[meta] Situational Dad Jokes

We have lots of jokes here some good, most not, but that's fine. What we don't have are the "situational" dad jokes, ones that are only funny (for us dad's) in specific situations. I was to collect the classics, so give a situation and then the joke.

Here's example #1, maybe even the ur-dad-joke

When someone stubs their toe: Should I call a toe truck?

A couple more:

When driving past a farm with bundled straw loudly declaring "hay!"

When driving behind an open back horse carrier, declaring "what a horse's ass".

Please share yours!

Two jests are better than one

A horse walks into a bar and orders ten beers which he quickly downs. The bartender says, "Wow – don’t you think you’re drinking too much?" The horse ponders for a minute and then responds, “I don’t think I am.” And poof, he disappears.

At this point philosophy students reading this joke start to snicker, being familiar with philosopher Rene Decartes' first principle: "I think, therefore I am."

The rest of us might have wished for some mention of this principle right at the start. But that would have been putting Descartes before the horse.

A horse walks into a bar and orders a whiskey.

The barkeep says, “A talking horse! I didn’t know you existed!”

“Wait, what?”, says the horse before pondering to himself, “do I exist?”. And then poof the horse disappears into thin air.

You see, this joke was supposed to be a riff on French philosopher Descartes’ famous “I think, therefore I am”, but to have explained that beforehand would be putting Descartes before the horse.

my proudest dad moment:

Probably a joke I heard on here years ago, but this weekend I was driving my family to the zoo and I saw a bunch of horses in a field and I confidently said hey look a school of horses. My older daughter immediately corrected me saying it's a herd. I said what? She said a herd of horses, to which I replied of course I've heard of horses I just pointed out a whole school of them to you. The groan from my wife was was equal to the laughter from the backseat. Now my daughter's try to get everyone on this joke.

What do you say to a girl with a broken nose?

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".

A horse enters a bar and orders a drink.

When he’s finished, the barkeep asks if he wants another. The horse replies, “I don’t think I do...” and vanished from existence.

To get the joke, you need to know Rene Descartes’ theory “I think, therefore I am.” But if I explained that before the joke, I would be putting Descartes before de horse.

So a farmer has trouble telling his two horses apart...

He cuts the tail of one of them and that works for awhile, but it eventually grows back. So he cuts the mane off the other one and that works, too, but that grows back and once again he is stuck.

Finally he decides to measure the horses and discovers that the black one is a foot taller than the white one.

Blonde jokes are the best

So a blonde, brunette, and a ginger are running from the cops, they run into a barn, the blonde hides behind a barrel, the brunette hides behind a horse, the ginger hides behind a cow, the cops show up and yell "come out we know you're in there!" The brunette says "neigh neigh," the ginger says "moo moo," the blonde says "barrel barrel."

My Little Pony gone wrong

My sister posted about loving my little ponies, and we got on the topic of rainbow horse poop jokes. My dad just pops in with this:

Dad - I can't think of one right now. I do, however, have a poem that is somewhat related: (first assume standard high-class poetry recitation position; head high, chest out, hands clasped behind back, heels together, toes @ 180 degrees, knees slightly bent): "In days of old, when knights were bold, and toilets weren't invented; they left their load beside the road, and went away contented."

We were driving through a rural area near here when we went past an abandoned horse track, complete with stands etc.

She was pointing it out and saying "oh look, there's even the ticket booth!" and the like when she spots the horse stalls in a falling down old building.

She said "Do you think those are stables?"

I looked over at them and replied "Hmm. I don't think so. I mean, they don't look very stable to me!"

I hung up on my husband's dad joke.

My husband and I aren't planning on kids just yet, but he'll be great with the dad jokes if we ever have some.

A few weeks back, he called to ask if I needed anything from the store on his way home from work. I said no, and he followed that up with the random observation, "Hey, there's horses over there!"

I was initially confused, because the way he said it made it seem like they were in the road, and asked, "...what are they doing?"

There was a brief pause and he said, "Oh... just horsing around in a field."

I immediately hung up.

Edit: A word.
