50 Hilarious Times Dads Nailed Their Fatherly Duties That Will Make You Proud and Laugh Equally

Parenting is like a piece of cake for the super dads out there.

Give out the damn Oscars, Pulitzers, Grammys, Emmys, and prize cups to the people who keep nailing their fathering tasks like it's nothing at all. Dad humor is both silly and cringeworthy, but it is genuinely relatable.

It provides us with a necessary feeling of homely comfort in a world where television and the media are governed by mayhem and unrest. There's something practically transgressive about father humor, as it mostly works anywhere and anytime and has no dual meaning that would leave the joke with a pointless aftertaste.

The success of dad humor, which has now turned into its very own subgenre, mirrors the entire pattern of comedy today. We have compiled a list of recognition for fathers who are being fathers, which essentially implies that fathers are the coolest beings out there.

From a father who had to participate in his daughter's mermaid photoshoot to a father who waited 28 years to return a birthday card to his son, to a father who promised his daughter a cake if she used the potty all by herself, to a father who delivered a dad joke at the perfect location and time, to a father who was so happy to hold a 3-week-old baby goat, you would agree that the world will not end as long as they are around.

If it were my decision to make, I would stack each shelf in fathers' homes with awards and prizes. Any pun feels like you're back in high school, with your mother baking cookies in the kitchen and your father cracking jokes about whatever piques his interest.

When it's all said and done, we love our fathers regardless of how poorly calculated their jokes are.
