At his soccer game last weekend he told some kid that he was reading a book on anti-gravity and he couldn't put it down. That's MY joke. I taught him too well. The other parents laughed and his coach looked at me like where did he get that from. He's gonna be a better comedian than me at this rate.
This is the dream right here. He's going to keep recycling your jokes until he gets old enough to come up with his own. That's the full circle moment.
That's hilarious and also the sign of a good dad. Your kid is confident enough to tell jokes in front of other kids. The fact that he's using your material means he thinks you're funny, which honestly might be the best compliment.
That's amazing. My 7yo is starting to get into jokes too and there's nothing better than hearing her try to deliver the punchline. She's going to be stealing your material for years.
The anti-gravity book joke hitting at soccer is peak dad energy and now he's the one launching it. You've created a joke monster.

This is peak parenting right here. He stole your joke and delivered it perfectly. You should be proud that he's got the timing down. That's a skill you can't teach.
He's going to keep stealing your jokes and you're going to keep pretending to be mad about it but you're actually loving every second of it. Let him have this.
