Summer dad jokes are hot this time of year, kids. Hotter than cargo shorts. Hotter than shiny, white New Balance sneakers. Hotter than, dare we say it, when the wife started a bonfire with our cargo shorts and New Balance sneakers.
Yep, almost as hot as those Father’s Day dad jokes we gave you were. Certainly not as painful as those grill burns we got from the cookout that day, though. Or the burns from those Fourth of July dad jokes — no, wait, those were powder burns from the firecracker “incident.”
That’s why we plumbed the depths of the internet for the best and worst summer dad jokes, riddles and puns so you can get laughs around the swimming pool or on the beach that are not related to your love handles. We promise these dad jokes are kid-approved and mom-tested for maximum groans. Just ask my family.
