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.

This question was made for me, lol. Here are my go-to top-tier dad jokes:
Dad: Someone here is an owl. Me: Who? Dad: *Narrows eyes suspiciously*
How do you know when your clock is still hungry? It goes back four seconds.
What do you call a fish with no eye? A fsh.
How did the hamburger introduce his wife? "Meat Patty."
Were you built upside-down? Because your nose runs and your feet smell!
How did the hacker escape the FBI? He ransomware.
When does a dad joke become a dad joke? During the delivery, it becomes apparent.
6:30 is my favorite time of day, hands down.
Why shouldn't you wear glasses when you play football? Because it's a contact sport.
I took up origami for a while, but I gave it up because it was too much paperwork.
What do you call someone who tells dad jokes when they're not a father? A faux pas.

What did the blanket say when he fell off the bed? "Oh sheet!"
What's orange and sounds like a carrot? A parrot!
What did the bra say to the hat? "You go on ahead and I'll give these two a lift"
I used to work at a bank and a woman once asked me if I could check her balance. So I pushed her over and said, "It's not good."
