“I don’t like the eyebrows I was given so I’m gonna draw them in a little darker.”
Prepare to laugh, then groan, then laugh again.
The ultimate annoying dad.
“A proper picture nobhead!”
She never specified how.
One of the longest running Dad jokes ever.
Texting is the medium in which dads truly shine.
What’s E.T. short for? Because he’s only got little legs.

He couldn’t resist the opportunity to make a dad joke. Couldn’t resist.
So bad, they’re brilliant.
NSFW dad jokes, at that.
THEY MUST BE STOPPED.
Ah, c’mere, go ‘way, wait til I tell you.
The dog’s FACE. The baby’s FACE.
TAOISEACH MICHEÁL MARTIN suggested yesterday that plans to recognise the hard work of frontline staff during the pandemic may not be limited to healthcare workers.
“We want to reflect the contribution that people have made during Covid-19, particularly frontline workers. Frontline workers have been in many sectors, not least in retail, right from the beginning and the commencement of the pandemic,” he said.
Martin said there would be “further engagement” with the relevant sectors on the Government’s said plan for a one-off bonus, either a cash lump sum or additional leave days.
The public expenditure minister Michael McGrath said the Government will be dealing with the matter in the next few weeks but that the cost of granting ten days additional leave to healthcare workers as recognition of their work during the pandemic would cost the State “well over €1 billion”.
So, today we’re asking: Do you think that healthcare workers and other frontline workers should get a pandemic bonus?
