26 Dad Jokes That Are So Borderline Bad And Embarrassing They Are Almost Too Hilarious To Ignore

Dad jokes are one of the best highlights of Internet memes in the 21st century and for good reason. If there's one thing a typical father is good at, it's making their kids and wife laugh at these corny, this-will-make-them-groan, and pun-filled jokes and one-liners that will either make you facepalm or laugh at how bad it is.

But that's the beauty of it, dad jokes are so borderline uncool and cringe-worthy that it's almost impossible to choose if you want to laugh or grimace. These are jokes that have standards in their own league, and as horrible and cringe they may be, it sure is one way to turn a moment from miserable to miserably funny.

They are so peculiarly and weirdly funny that it's impossible to stifle a laugh or two!

It seems like these jokes are a rite of passage for every man that's on their way or already in their fatherhood. Most of these terrible one-liners are recognized by their lameness, cheesiness overload, horrible puns, and the classic response it gathers: "Daaaaaaad!".

Even those who are still yet to reach fatherhood seem to catch on the trend, too. Bad jokes are now generally labeled as dad jokes, because they are so bad that it's so good!

Come to think of it, the only difference between a bad joke and a dad joke is just "b" and "d." Only a few things in life are so bad that they are satisfyingly but terribly good—and dad jokes are surely at the top of that list.
