25 Poorly Executed Dad Jokes That Are Better Than Dad Jokes (October 2, 2024)

“I don’t think cheering is appropriate, Karen”

Dad jokes are having a moment, and while they’ve always been groan-worthy, poorly executed dad jokes are somehow even better. You know the kind—the punchlines that don’t quite land but still make you laugh because they’re so awkward. These gems are the kind of humor you wish you could just whip out at a dinner party and have everyone rolling their eyes (in a good way).

We’re not talking about your classic “I’m hungry” and “Hi hungry, I’m dad” routine either. No, these poorly timed, questionably delivered puns are like a fine wine: they get funnier with every failed attempt to deliver them. And honestly? They’re better than the originals. Sure, dad jokes are supposed to be bad, but these? These are so bad they’re brilliant.
