Very best bad dad gags: you’ve got to be joking!

-

It’s getting to that time of the year when we honour our father or father figure in our lives with Father’s Day on June 21. We spend the year listening to their corny jokes (and laughter) and now is the chance to vote for their best one and at the same time buy a special gift and card to say thanks for just being there.

Here we share some of those corny father one-liners and give you an ideal gift idea for those dads or dad figuress in your life who love a tot of whisky.

Ahead of Father’s Day, greetings card marketplac­e thortful.com is on the hunt for the cheesiest dad jokes and they are also offering a range of greetings cards and gifts to say a special thank you.

In addition,, thortful have introduced James Eadie Whisky after a 70-year absence to their growing range of gifts.

Company chiefs are compiling an index of Ultimate Dad Jokes to showcase all fathers’ humour in its cringiest form.

Now’s the chance to add to the compilatio­n of the cheesiest.

Dad jokes ... we all know corny one-liners that make us cringe (and sometimes die a bit inside with embarrassm­ent!) because they are so bad.

Thortful has tasked the nation with submitting their cheesiest dad jokes. They have shared some of the best dad jokes here ...

1 I went for an interview. They said “Can you perform under pressure?” I said “I’m not sure about that but I can have a good crack at Bohemian Rhapsody”

2 Why can’t Elsa be trusted to hold a balloon? Because she’ll Let it Go!

3 What’s the best part about living in Switzerlan­d? I don’t know, but the flag is a big plus.

4 I’ve got a pen that can write underwater. It can write other words too but underwater is one of my faves.

5 Oh no I’ve just ordered 1,000 litres of Tippex. Big mistake!

6 My girlfriend said “You act like a detective too much.

I want to split up.” “Good idea,” I replied, “We can cover more ground that way.”

7 My pet mouse Elvis died last night. He was caught in a trap!

8 I’ve just quit my job at the Helium factory. I won’t be spoken to in that tone!

9 Just adopted a dog from the local blacksmith. As soon as I got him home, he made a bolt for the door.

10 I used to be addicted to the Hokey Cokey but I managed to turn myself around.

Don’t worry if dad jokes aren’t part of your repertoire, readers can still cast their vote on all entries and review the index for a few lols.

Launching just in time for Father’s Day a very special premium Scotch whisky is now available from thortful.

Passionate about supporting small businesses, thortful has partnered with James Eadie Whisky this Father’s Day.

An elegant peaty dram that offers a rare glimpse into the art of blending from the first Golden Age of Scotch Whisky.

More than 140 years after Mr Eadie’s Trade Mark ‘X’ was registered, and 70 years after it was last produced, this long-lost whisky has finally been resurrecte­d.

Customers can add a bottle of James Eadie Whisky for £44.95 from www.thortful. com to their A5 card.
