Howdy punsters!
Please remember when posting to /r/puns that the punchline should be in the post itself, not the topic. Puns should be self-explanatory. If you have to explain it, please do so in the comments. We've had a lot of puns lately, especially images, ruined before clicking on them when the whole thing was spoiled in the topic line.
Up to now, we've been assigning "for shame" flair when this happens, but it's become very common lately. As a result, posts with punchlines in the topic will be removed.
Thanks!
I never meta dad joke I didn't like.
World Wide Web
She said it just never seems to come up ..
They're also pun-ishingly bad! You should be pun-alized for it!
Edit: >!I normally don't do this but let me explain the joke/post. Please notice the pun-chline below the title.!<
>!The idea behind this post was to make a pun out of the controversial topic of this sub and nothing else.!<
>!I'm the "devil's advocate" when it comes to both sides. I love both SFW and NSFW dad jokes. Also, there are many prude cultures in the world where parents don't use NSFW jokes with their kids even as an adult so it makes sense why they won't think an NSFW joke is not a dad joke. Reddit is not limited to western culture.!<
Edit 2: A lot of people have been sharing links in this post. Don't click them. They might be scammers.
Damn, I did Nazi that one coming.
Bittersweet moment for me that this is my first dad joke ever but it’s on this topic!
It really brings me down.
Because he’s Willem De”foe”…
I know this topic has been done to death in here and I apologise to the mods for bringing it up again but recent "jokes" have made me question what the point of this sub is.
I'd like to not have a discussion about "should we let NSFW jokes here or not" instead I think it should be important to understand what everyone thinks their defenition of a dadjoke actually is.
Before I say my definition I want to make it clear that I whole heartedly enjoy good NSFW jokes and I'm a regular visitor to r/unclejokes.
My defenition: a good dadjoke is something that is usually based around a bad pun or clever word play that makes people around you groan or roll their eyes, similar to the types of jokes you find in Christmas crackers, they are so bad that they are good. The language involved can sometimes be a bit NSFW depending on the subject material but on the whole if you change things about a bit your can make it suitable for most ages. It is the type of joke where when you tell it everyone's first reaction is to complain how bad it is before then secretly uttering a chuckle themselves.
I want to know what everyone else's definition of a dadjoke is so that we can see what everyone thinks. The old "it's a dadjoke because I'm a dad and I'm telling a joke" I just don't think is an accurate enough description so trying to get a better one.
Thank you.
I'm mass-turd-baiting.
We're off topic, let's get back on track
Eh, it's dull anyway.
But I just couldn't resist.
He replied "Chai, nah".
Sometimes, not so solid, either.
She's always pointing them out to me.
They’re calling it Sonblock.
Example:
Top Level: FISH
Pun Level: I really like fish, but some people don't, they find them really icthy
Because he was asked to research.
“Woah, woah, doc,” I said, “Let’s not make any rash decisions.”
I honestly didn’t even know she sold flowers
I’m not sure but always wear a helmet on your Segway
It always leads to the deepest discussion.
So now I won't be bringing that up any more
... but nowadays, when someone gets Botox, nobody raises an eyebrow!
oinkment
Because it is always in Pristina condition
Hope this doesn't stir up any controversial topics
I don't see this happening, but it would be nice if there were topical post flairs we could mark our dad jokes with. For example "movies", "kitchen", "car", "job", "wife", "mother-n-law", etc. I suppose the possibilities are endless, which probably means it won't be happening. But, you'll be cooler than my dad, if you do. :-) There is a lot of comedy gold on here, which would be great to have these to sort by when inspiration fails to strike.
But every time I bring it up, she changes the topic.

It was a real naan sequitur.
