My son asked me why I don't like jokes about potatoes
I told him because they're too starchy. He groaned so hard he fell off the couch. Mission accomplished.

That's the goal right there - the groan is basically applause in dad language. Starchy joke landed perfectly.
This is peak dad humor right here. The starchy potato joke is exactly the kind of thing that makes kids groan but secretly love their dad for it. Your son falling off the couch is basically a standing ovation in dad joke currency.
Ha! I've been collecting jokes like this since my kid was born. They don't laugh now but just wait, one day they'll be telling these same jokes to their friends and acting like they came up with them.
The groan is the goal. Mission accomplished indeed. My kids do the exact same thing when I hit them with a good one.

The couch fall is the true measure of success with these jokes. Nailed it.
