jokes

Dad jokes are notorious for being cheesy and oftentimes, cringe-worthy. But there’s something endearing about them that we just can’t help but love. Maybe it’s the dad’s earnest attempt at being funny or maybe it’s just the fact that dad jokes are so bad, they’re good. Whatever the reason, dad jokes have become a staple in today’s humor culture.

So without further ado, here are some of the best dad jokes:

1. Why did the tomato turn red? because it saw the salad dressing!

2. I told my wife she was drawing her eyebrows too high. She looked surprised.

3. How do you organize a space party? You planet.

4. Why do seagulls fly over the sea? Because if they flew over the bay, they’d be bagels.

5. Two goldfish are in a tank. One turns to the other and says, “Do you know how to drive this thing?”

6. I’m reading a book on anti-gravity. It’s impossible to put down!

7. Want to hear a construction joke? Oh, never mind. I’m still working on that one.

8. I used to play piano by ear. Now I use my hands.
