There's a guy at work who calls these 'Dad jokes.' I'm not sure what makes them 'Dad jokes', (would these be Chief jokes here?), but here's a sampling.

 

 

Of all the inventions in the last 100 years, the dry-erase board has to be the most remarkable!

 

To the person who stole my glasses ... I'll find you; I have contacts.

 

 

 

 

Have any to add?

What did the broom yell when it jumped out of the closet?

 

 

 

 

 

supplies!

The version of that joke I remember hearing seems more like in the Drunk Uncle Jim At Thanksgiving category. :)

Decorating for Christmas, I dropped our copy of “A Christmas Carol” on my toe.  It hurts like the Dickens.

Is this a Carol(e) joke?

Lol ... very punny ... ;)

 

It's from this guy at work who is in some text group labeled 'Dad jokes.' I'm still not clear what constitutes a Dad joke ... I think they are better clarified as Chief jokes.

A priest, a rabbit, and a minister walk into a bar. The rabbit says, ‘I might be a typo.’

I liked this one much more than my wife did.

That’s what makes it a dad joke and not a mom joke :)

I just heard this told another way ... 'A priest, rabbit and minister walk into a bar, the bartender asks them, 'What will you have?' The rabbit replies, 'Dunno. I'm only here because of autocorrect.'

Yes. But for the record, my wife told it to me.

My mom used to tell jokes she clearly didn't understand. Did I already relate this definitive example?

Q: Where does Batman take his trash?

A: To the dump.

 

She laughed merrily, and we kids laughed politely but didn't have any idea why it was funny. This would have been 1966 or so, when the Adam West version was on TV.

 

A few weeks or months later, I heard someone else start the joke.

Q: Where does the Lone Ranger take his trash?

 

Oh no, I thought, why is this person telling this awful joke? I was much younger then, and hadn't ever heard it before, but you surely already know the answer and where this was leading:

 

A: To the dump, to the dump, to the dump-dump-dump!

 

Ohhhhhhh! Mom had heard a Dad Joke, as we know them now, but bollixed it up in two different ways.

 

I miss that.

 

She could also tell dirty jokes just fine, because those she understood. :)
