It's not a dad joke unless you have repeated it 10 times already despite no one ever laughing at it.

@drfunkybutt I also like this Jon Lovett advise: "No matter how obvious you think a joke is, it's not obvious enough."

@Dbregernyc @drfunkybutt There was an Irish comedian who said he specialised in the "delayed reaction joke", which (he explained) was a punchline it took the audience some time to process, so that the laughs were always out-of-sync with the material, and there were lots of awkward silences while he waited for the jokes to land.Needless to say, I can't remember his name. 😆
