Good Monday Morning and a Happy Day-After-Father’s-Day to all the great dads out there! Yes, yes … I know that Father’s Day was yesterday, but I wanted to be ‘fashionably late’, as they say. And anyway, I thought that rather than some droll retelling of the history of the day, it would be more fun to dedicate an entire Jolly Monday to dads, ‘cause most of the ones I know appreciate a bit of humour (not to mention bacon). And since this Jolly Monday is dedicated to Father’s Day, you will find ‘dad-foods’ on the buffet this morning! So, grab a snack and let’s have some dad-type humour to start our week with a smile or a chuckle.
Gwammie put me in charge of findin’ some ‘toons an’ memes about dads ‘n stuff, so here’s what I came up with … I hope you likes ‘em …
I went in search of some dad-related jokes …
- I asked my dad to help me with a math problem. He said: “Don’t worry; this is a piece of cake.” I said: “No, it’s a math problem.”
- Being a great father is like shaving. No matter how good you shaved today, you have to do it again tomorrow.
- Dad: You’ll never amount to anything because you procrastinate. Son: Oh yeah? Just you wait!
- Dad Wisdom: I know what I’m getting for Father’s Day. Last night my daughter asked me what size aftershave I wear.
- Dad: Hi, Sweetie, how was school today? Daughter: You can read all about it on my Facebook, Dad!
- Dear Dad, $chool i$ really great. I am making lot$ of friend$ and $tudying very hard. With all my $tuff, I $imply can’t think of anything I need, $o if you would like, you can ju$t $end me a card, a$ I would love to hear from you. Love, Your $on
- Dear Son, I kNOw that astroNOmy, ecoNOmics, and oceaNOgraphy are eNOugh to keep even an hoNOr student busy. Do NOt forget that the pursuit of kNOwledge is a NOble task, and you can never study eNOugh. Love, Dad
- Dear Son, I kNOw that astroNOmy, ecoNOmics, and oceaNOgraphy are eNOugh to keep even an hoNOr student busy. Do NOt forget that the pursuit of kNOwledge is a NOble task, and you can never study eNOugh. Love, Dad
- Dad Wisdom: Why, in a country of free speech, are there phone bills?
- Dad: Let me see your report card. Son: I don’t have it. Dad: Why not? Son: My friend just borrowed it. He wants to scare his parents.
And … we even found a special critter video of a tiger cub meeting her father for the first time …
I hope all you dads had a wonderful day yesterday yesterday and that you enjoyed our efforts on this Jolly Monday! Keep safe and have a good week ahead! Love ‘n hugs from Filosofa, Jolly & Joyful!
what a glorious collection. I have to tell you something I thought was really funny. As I knew that last Sunday was ‘your’ Fathers’ Day I assumed it must have been the same thing in Switzerland. When I enquired widely, NOBODY knew anything about it and in any case, all of my friends ‘confirmed’ that Fathers’ Day is NOT celebrated here… So, I shut up – we are of the opinion anyway that fathers have 364 fathers’ days anyhow! 😉
But then I had to grin over quite a few of those ‘toons’ – and I really would have liked to see a ‘dud’ T-shee on one of my English weird and crazy fathers. One of them would have not only worn it but worn it with enormous pride – he is one of this world’s Einsteins so he would totally get away with it.
And then that tiger video – hasn’t got much of a father’s feeling in it but is majestic and incredibly well filmed. A special thank you for this gem.

That IS funny!!! Actually, the UK celebrates Father’s Day on the same day we do here in the U.S., and I think a few other countries do, as well, but apparently not Switzerland!
I’m so glad you enjoyed the ‘toons!

I gather that ‘groan’ was as a result of eating too much bacon? Have a great week, dear Emily!

Toons and Memes all good I went from smile to laugh in under 30 secs. Tiger video was interesting but hardly the social event of the season with fathr leaving without having a dance with his daughter or staying to meet his ex.
