Found the dad in the comments ๐จ
Guilty
I dunno man, I think your joke was quite innocent, actually.
I am yet to see an offensive dad joke though
My boyfriend went through a period in our 20s where he became a dad-joke-demon. He was a massive hit with my friends, while I considered it a domestic violence situation.
Every other day he would walk into the room with a smile on his face and I just knew. I just knew that now came the newest onslaught. One dad joke after the other until I was begging for mercy on the floor and then he had the nerve to ask me which ones to go use on the kids at work the next day. He was a hit with them too. Had dad-joke Fridays with them for years. Pure, unfiltered evil.
I still have life long trauma from the first time him, my brother in law and my dad were in a room together and one of them, probably my boyfriend, started making dad jokes and then they took turns delivering their best ones and laughing because they were sooooooo funny. When people speak about the "evil of man" this is it.
