Why don't you hear a pterodactyl go to the bathroom? The P is silent.
I'm a father. I tell dad jokes.
See that farmer? A man outstanding in his field.
Peter Sokolowski, editor-at-large of Merriam-Webster, defined dad jokes for us as, "an obvious or predictable pun or play on words and usually judged to be endearingly corny or unfunny."
See that documentary about beavers? What a great dam show ...
You may not believe this, but there was a time when I was known to make comic observations on social and political issues that some people found pointed, sharp and contemporary. Now I say:
Termite walks into a bar and asks, "Is the bar tender here?"
Did you get a hair cut? No, I got them all cut!
I think dad jokes begin to pop out of fathers when the most important audience in life becomes our children. You want to make them laugh by any means necessary — silly faces and comic belches. When they gain the power of speech, you stoop to dad jokes.
