Dads have a weird sense of humor. And if you point that out, youโll just end up ignored, roasted, and humiliated. This is why you should always be on your toes whenever youโre having a conversation with your father.
If you donโt believe that, here are 20 really hilarious dad texts as proof.
1. Classic โWhen I was your ageโ
This dad may be at the ripe age of fifty, but heโs still in the know about how kids these days talk. In fact, he wouldโve passed as a young man had he not made the mistake of calling it back to the good old days of โwrappin.โ


2. A witty reminder
Dads can be some of the most generous people, and this one surely wonโt let his kid forget about that. You have to give him props, though, for inserting such a witty reminder in just the span of two texts.


3. Good advice
Sometimes you need good advice from dad. Sometimes what you get is a movie reference.


4. Kidnapped at school
Props to this dad for such a genuinely well thought out joke. It might not have been the funniest, but weโre betting his kidโs day just got a little bit better after reading these texts.


5. Getting there faster
Dads can get a bit impatient, especially when they reach a certain age, so itโs best not to make them wait. This father has definitely gotten to that point. Itโs a good thing he seems pretty chill about it.


6. Staying up to date
Now, this oneโs just a tad bit too corny, but we have to give this dad props for wellโฆusing props to set the stage for his joke. We wonder what he texts his children whenever Apple releases a new iPhoneโฆ


7. A hilarious misunderstanding
With gender reveal parties and LGBT issues being talked about so frequently these days, we canโt say we blame this dad for getting things mixed up. Itโs a good thing that one of his kids clarified to avoid further awkward exchanges at the party.


8. The takeaway
Sometimes a dadโs humor is just so obscure that no one gets it, not even their kids. This is an example of that.


9. The big leek
Receiving the first text, this kid probably thought heโd be in big trouble. Fortunately, he was able to breathe a big sigh of relief after realizing that it was just a classic dad joke.


10. Creating his own slang
Who says all older people are completely out of the loop? Some of them can even be more advanced when it comes to slang than the younger generation, as proven by this dad and his invention of the word โpelfie.โ


11. Horses are cool
Emojis are always fun to use. Theyโre a great way to add humor to conversations and even express oneโs feelings better via text. Although, weโre still trying to figure out what this dad may be trying to communicate with his constant use of the horse emoji.


12. How Harry Potter really walks
While his joke may not be the most creative, weโre pretty amazed this dad even knows who Harry Potter is. We guess thatโs what raising a Potterhead kid can do to parent.


13. Seen it coming
This kid has most definitely gotten used to his fatherโs brand of humor and can see a joke coming from a mile away. That doesnโt deter his old man from making them. Not even a bit.


14. Unsure about โSureโ
Everything can turn into a fun moment when dads are involved. Proof is in this hilarious exchange between father and son about something as simple as deodorant.


15. When things donโt go as planned
Kids may think they can easily outsmart their parents when it comes to technology, but theyโre still no match to dads and their savage one-liners. Case in point is this autocorrect prank that backfired in the most amusing way.


16. Proud dad
Dads are typically laxer compared to moms when it comes to disciplining kids. While this is certainly epic, weโre pretty sure this kidโs mom wonโt be too pleased to hear about what they did and how their dad reacted proudly to it.


17. Taking care of the family
Sometimes dads sound a whole lot more like teens than teens do. This might be one of those times.


18. Death by moth
This is probably one of the funniest dad jokes weโve encountered so far. Thereโs just something absolutely hilarious about the contrast between the seriousness of the kidโs texts and the deadpan humor of their father.


19. Master of acronyms
When dads learn Internet slang, they get serious about itโฆreally serious. The proof is this fatherโs surprising knowledge of this rather obscure meme/acronym. No wonder his kid is totally impressed.


20. When dadโs a police officer
This dad has probably seen some serious stuff at work being a police officer, and heโs developed a dark brand of humor. It seems like itโs rubbed off on his kid, too.


21. This dad doesnโt have favorites
They say every parent has a favorite child, but this dad is adamant to prove that he doesnโt. While heโs probably just trying to make a child who feels left out a bit better, thatโs still some pretty good parenting right there.


22. No reason to go
Sometimes itโs just easier to ask mom for permission to go out. She may also have many questions to ask, but weโre pretty sure they arenโt as savage as dadโs.


23. When they just use you for your knowledge
We go to our dads for knowledge. It only makes sense that now and then they might come to us for ours as well.


24. Most supporting dad award goes toโฆ
Say what you will, but dads and their humor can make light of any situation. This dadโs humor probably made his kid feel just a little bit better about whatever event they were nervous about.


25. Keeping things secret from mom
Kids sometimes forget that their parents were young once. And chances are high that, despite the generation gap, they both enjoy the same โrecreationalโ stuff.


26. Getting the kids confused
Having multiple kids, parents can sometimes get siblingsโ names mixed up with each other. And this is the text equivalent of your dad mistakenly calling you by your brother or sisterโs name.


27. Darn auto-correct
A father and son bond is different from a mother and daughter bond. While some may see this exchange as rude, itโs actually how a lot of dads express their happiness for their sons.


28. Trouble with Siri
Hilarity always ensues whenever a parent is introduced to new technology. Proof is this dadโs struggles with Siri and texting. Hopefully, heโll eventually get the hang of things.


29. Taking things literally
Thereโs no predicting when dad will crack out one of the jokes heโs been keeping for later. It can come up anytime, especially in the middle of seemingly normal texts like the one above.


30. How a turkey smells
Is it really Thanksgiving if your dad doesnโt make at least one turkey joke? This one didnโt even wait for his kid to come home before reminding him of what being back home is like.


31. Just a concerned dad
The photoโs original poster shares that this was how her and her dadโs texts would go after she first started going to college. Now, if that isnโt an awww-inducing story we donโt know what is.


32. Just a random thought
We bet mom had a hand in stopping this dad from actually naming their kid โJadaveiusโ. And he or she is definitely thankful about that. Still, that doesnโt stop dad from reminding them.


33. Doing just fine
Hereโs a hilarious reminder not to worry too much about dad. He can definitely take care of himself just fineโฆas long as heโs got access to your savings account.


34. Not in a meeting
The funniest thing about this text convo is how the dad doesnโt seem to be aware that he just butt texted his kid the same message about eight times before replying.


35. When he just canโt admit it
Dads can be softies, but that doesnโt always mean they can admit to being softies. Thatโs okay. We know this one is.


36. Wait until mom hears about this
Isnโt it funny how both dads and their kids can use mom as a threat to each other? This kid has certainly found this useful realization and puts it to good use.


37. How dads roll
Imagine getting this random text from your dad while youโre at work and thinking โWTF?โ We guess dads just have to dish out the jokes whenever the inspiration strikes them.


38. Dad is jiggy with that
Simply judging from these texts, we bet this dad is one chill dude. His slang might be a bit dated but heโs still cool in our books.


39. Ruining the family name
While moms are known for being more encouraging when it comes to their kidsโ study habits, dads serve as a balancing force when it comes to parenting it seems. This one definitely is on the polar opposite of most parents.


40. The look of disappointment
For better or for worse, parents have discovered how to send pictures via text messaging and they are definitely using it to their advantage. We canโt blame them though, sometimes emojis just canโt convey the same emotions.


41. Itโs the thought that counts
We wonder how long it took this dad to realize his hilarious mistake. Still, he deserves some points for simply being concerned about his kid.


42. Terms of endearment
Thereโs no doubt that all parents love their kids. Some couples just have unconventional terms of endearment they use for their childrenโฆbehind their back.


43. Ed Sharon is the best
Clearly, Siri needs to get her stuff together so this dad can correctly express his love for Ed Sheeran. Weโre not sure though why he thought liking the singer would make him gay.


44. MarriageGoals
Now, this is some joke-ception. And we have to say, being this comfortable with your significant other is a serious #marriagegoal right there.


45. AN ACCOMPLISHMENT
Getting the hang of texting on smartphones can be difficult for some. A great example is this dad who hasnโt quite figured out how to type in all caps yet. Good thing his kid is there to help him out.


46. Mr. Uber to the rescue
Concerned dads around the world are all thankful for Mr. Uber. Now, they can make sure their kids get home safe without having to jump out of bed in the middle of the night to drive them home themselves.


47. Sailing through the rough waters of Facebook
As the younger people migrate off Facebook for Twitter and Instagram, their parents are slowly dominating Facebook. Some of them need some help navigating the site, though, as evidenced by this dad.


48. Tough love
Sometimes dads declare opposite days without telling their kids. They need to maintain that strong, manly image, you see? Hopefully, Amy sees through this and gets her dadโs real message.


49. Just a regular straight guy
As they say, adults are just kids with money. This dad is certainly proof of it. We bet he and his teenage sons get along really well.


50. Early late dinner
Anyone up for some lightly fried fish fillets? We bet living in this household means being fed random delicious meals at random parts of the day, and weโre all about it.


51. When they know what youโre going to ask
He might be playing mind reader a little bit too much. Or maybe not. Weโre not going to judge.


52. Good news and bad news
We have to give props for this kidโs excellent way of delivering bad news to his pops. We bet there were a million thoughts already running through his dadโs head after reading the first text.


53. Dropping subtle hints
It seems like the apple didnโt fall far from the tree. The use of subtle hints to ask for money is definitely smart but not wise to use on the person from whom they probably learned the trick.

54. Hopeโs crushed
Now, this one has got to hurt. This kidโs dreams of owning a new phone just got crushed by their own dad. Worse, their sister is the one who is getting what they wanted.


55. They still need you
Even if the kids grow up, that doesnโt mean dad doesnโt need them just as much as they used to need him. Sometimes itโs just to get โunhacked.โ


56. When it still gets you
You can never be prepared for dad jokes even if you try. Keep that in mind and never let your guard down. Otherwise, youโll just end up like this person.


57. Reality check
Dads keep their sons grounded. However, that doesnโt mean that theyโll be subtle about the whole thing.


58. Someoneโs excited
Knowing that your parents still enjoy each otherโs company is great. Receiving a text message like this, however, is a totally different story.


59. How do you reply to this?
Dads tend to have great eyes and they will notice every single thing in their kidsโ houses. In this case, it was the dogโs private parts.


60. No chance
We all want some specific things in life, but itโs definitely hard to get all of them. This dad was just showing his kid how hard it would be for him to get the car he wanted and heโs using a really weird example.


61. Just practicing
When you are learning something new, you need to repeat it a couple of times to memorize it. Itโs probably what this dad is doing.


62. Getting there
Itโs hard to keep up with the latest trends, particularly with so many things going around. Itโs a good thing that this dad is actually trying to keep up.


63. Another dad joke
Admit it or not, this joke is quite funny. You must have been stuck with the glue, too.


64. When youโre not on the same page
Itโs hard to say if this dad still feels proud after realizing that his son was talking about a different โbaseโ. He sounded excited before that.


65. He knows his kid well.
This dad knows his kid too well and heโs not buying any of his explanations. That includes him having friends at school.


66. A good reminder
In giving advice, you donโt always have to deliver long messages. Sometimes, pointing out reality is more effective. Take it from this dad.


67. Good point
This dad has so much trust in his kid. He didnโt just let him buy his sneakers on Amazon, but he also let him pick what design would make him look good.


68. A serious burn
At first glance, you might think that this dad was being serious in asking about what gift his son would want for his birthday. But as it turns out, heโs just being savage.


69. Decoding the message
Iโm having a hard time interpreting this dadโs message. It looks like my dream of working for the CIA isnโt going to happen.


70. Just in case
Most dads would prepare survival kits and weapons for the zombie apocalypse. This dad, however, is sending out love messages just in case the zombies come. What a sweet dad!


71. Foreign language
No matter how hard I try, I canโt seem to understand what this dad means. The only thing Iโm quite sure of is the fact that emojis arenโt considered as a language.


72. What gift?
You should always be careful when it comes to asking gifts from parents. Once they bring out this argument, fighting back will be hard. I mean, how can you argue with someone who gave you life?


73. Just updating
Itโs either this dad just wants to keep his kid updated or heโs dropping hints that he seriously wants his kid to give them a call. I hope he got what he really wanted.


74. Not upgrading soon
This dad prefers the flip phone and itโs not hard to see why. Although smart phones are nice and handy, they arenโt for everyone.


75. Too hard
Your dad will always be cooler than you. Heโs likely to be more savage, too.
