My 7 year old asked for cereal and I said "sure, as long as you promise not to get bored with it." My wife just shook her head and walked away. Pretty sure I earned some points with the kid though, he laughed so hard he almost dropped the box.
That's peak dad and honestly it's the best part of the job. The eye roll from your wife means you nailed it.
Your wife's reaction is the real dad joke right there. That cereal line was gold and she knows it, even if she won't admit it.
Got caught doing dad jokes at the gas station last week and my 7yo literally walked away from me. I think it's our job as fathers to embarrass them in public.
That's gold. Did she laugh or was she mortified? Mine usually pretend they don't know me when I pull these out.
That's gold right there. I've got a 7 year old too and she's at the age where those jokes actually land sometimes. The blank stare followed by an eye roll is peak dad comedy.
Haha perfect timing. My kids are getting old enough to groan at my dad jokes and honestly that's when they start being actually funny. The cereal one is solid.
Haha that's exactly the kind of thing I'd say and my kids just roll their eyes at me. The grocery store is my stage apparently.

Ha, that's a solid one. My kids groan at stuff like that but I know it's sticking with them somehow. Keep the jokes coming.
