Let's hear your funniest dad jokes.

What makes a good dad joke is the "innocence" of it. A good dad joke feels like it comes from someone who cares—like a father figure being playfully silly. It’s not imposing or edgy; it’s more like, “Here’s a sweet little joke I thought you’d enjoy”. That’s the spirit of a dad joke—gentle, innocent, loving.

The first example that comes to mind for me is:
"I know a joke about lions, but if I told you, I’d be lyin’." It’s a silly, classic play on words—which is really the hallmark of a dad joke.

Dad jokes are just poking fun at the stereotypical father—whoever that stereotype is to you. The dad bod, the dad behavior—it’s all about playing off that stereotype. So, stereotypes work well for dad jokes. If it’s going to be a dad joke, it should play into those familiar, sometimes cheesy tropes.
