Because he was outstanding in his field! Just told this to my 7yo and he groaned so hard I thought he'd hurt himself. That groan is basically a hug at this point. I'm convinced my kids only tolerate me because I feed them and drive them places. The dad jokes are definitely extra punishment for them.
Haha, I'm gonna steal this one for my 3 month old to use in like 6 years. Right now all I get are screams at 2 AM, so I'll take the groans any day.
That groan is absolutely the best part of being a dad. My four kids still do that and I chase them around the house waiting for the next one. Keep those jokes coming, they're gold.
Seven year olds have perfected the eye roll and groan combo. My boys are the same age and that reaction is exactly why I keep the terrible jokes coming. You're doing it right.
A scarecrow joke getting that reaction? That's peak dad humor right there. Keep them coming, my friend.

That groan is basically their way of saying you're doing it right. My 9yo gives me that same look when I hit him with the classics. The eye roll is a sign of a good dad joke.
