Hitting the road for a Father’s Day trip is an Aussie tradition. There’s nothing better than cruising down the highway with the top 100 classic rock countdown blasting and the windows down. The only problem? The kids whining in the backseat. Sure, you could bring activities for them or buy some electronic device to keep them occupied. But Father’s Day is about you. So, instead of pandering to them, keep yourself amused with some classic dad jokes.
Here are our all-time favorite dad jokes. Get ready to yuk it up!
Hungry
Kids: Dad, I’m hungry!
You: (awesome hilarious dad): G’day Hungry, I’m Dad!
(Explode into a fit of laughter while kids almost roll their eyes out of their heads)
Muffler
You: I had a dream I was a muffler last night.
Kids: (silent contempt for the man who brought them into the world)
You: I woke up (pause for effect) EXHAUSTED!!!!!!!!
(Feel free to clap yourself and/or pat yourself on the back).
Lifesavers
You: Did you hear about the guy who invented lifesavers?
Kids: (audible groan followed by forehead slap)
You: I hear he made a MINT!
(punctuate the punch line with a howl of laughter, maybe even crank the radio and do a little triumphant dance).
Boy on his bike.
After this classic build up, it’s time to head into some more absurd territory. The kids will have no idea what you’re talking about, which will make it even more entertaining for you. Try this anti-joke:
You: Why did the boy fall off his bike?
Kids: (on the verge of tears/praying for it to end)
You: Because someone threw a fridge at him!
Kids: (confused and frightened looks)
You: (maniacal laughter)
If this stuff doesn’t float your boat, you can always try Ye Olde ‘pull my finger’ gag. (I urge you to have some sympathy and at least wind the windows down first).
Happy Dad’s Day from Redspot.
