Let's face it, dads have horrible jokes. But sometimes, the jokes are so horrible they're amazing.
Every once in a while, a wholesome dad joke is just good on its own. And sometimes, a dad will tell you a joke they know is terrible, but their delight in telling it somehow makes it great. Often, though, the jokes are just plain terrible and no amount of charm can save them.
