Knock knock.
Who's there?
Bumblebee.
Bumblebee who?
Bumblebee showing if you don't wear pants.
Okay, you'd better stop laughing now or your side will surely split.
Don't blame me for this joke. Blame my Dad. It's a Dad joke.
A Dad joke defined as a lame, embarrassing or unfunny joke told by someone's father.
My Dad was a Dad joker of the top order. Despite being a man with a greatly developed sense of humour he had a special liking of the Dad joke.
I couldn't count how many times we were told about the two blokes cleaning the deck of a ship. One said "Where's the soap". The other replied "Yes it does doesn't it."
You just snorted, right? Okay probably not.
But that's the aim of a Dad joke to make you groan.
And smile at least on the inside as I do every time I see a bee like this one I photographed just up the road today.
A bee not wearing pants? Its name must be Nicholas. I'll stop now.
What a brill photo and a lovely story. My dad also is the master of the dad joke. He still makes me laugh even though his jokes are awful.
ReplyDeletethat flower looks a bit like a huge forkfull of noodles to me! as always another amazing capture and your words really made me smile as it reminds me of a story my grandparents told me x
