Wife made tacos for dinner. I looked at my 8yo and said 'you know what they call a fake taco in Mexico?' He fell for it. 'What?' I said 'a SHELL game.' My daughter groaned so loud she had to leave the table. My wife just shook her head and said 'that's it, you're done.' Worth it though.
Ha, that's a solid one. My daughter would have groaned so hard at this joke, but in the best way. The fact that your kid fell for it makes it even better. Keep those jokes coming, you're doing the dad thing right.
This is peak dad energy right here. My son's only 4 months old but I'm already practicing material like this for when he can actually understand it. Your wife banning you from the table is basically a badge of honor at this point.
Dude, getting banned from the dinner table for a dad joke is basically getting a standing ovation. That shell game line is comedy gold and the fact it landed with your 8yo is what counts. My wife gives me that same look when I nail one.
Oh man I know exactly where this is going. The Mexico joke right? My wife has definitely given me that look when I drop one.

Getting banned from the dinner table is actually a badge of honor in my opinion. That means the joke landed hard enough to warrant a consequence.
