Great dive into the dad joke. I found myself wanted to argue with you that dad joke explicitly attributed to dads as a "dad joke" has been a thing much longer than you say. But your research seems compelling. My father loved a pun and embarassed us kids no end as did my spouse to my children in turn. I would have sworn that my kids growing up in the early 2000s complained about his "dad jokes" but I now suspect I'm imposing that term on their complaints of "dad, stop" Fascinating what memory will do. In any case, thanks so much for this fun deep dive on dad jokes.
