Welcome to Throwback Thursdays - where we take a famous meme from our past and bring you the best of the best for all those nostalgic feels and laughs from the good old days. For the dinosaurs like us, we remember when Bad Joke Eel started around 2013. The source - basically our fathers. Bad Joke Eel contains all the dad jokes you love to hate, but still love anyway.

These jokes are so terrible you have to hear them all the way through, definitely one of those "can't live with them, can't live without them" situation. They're real knee-slappers! We're giving you a heads up that this is totally a waste of time, but it's a good one. If you're feeling totally charged (see what we did there?) and a little fishy after this post, head on over to some fish-themed memes here. They're very…so-fish-tacated.

    Ha…..ha, ha. This joke is so stupid, we have to laugh. Or else we feel bad that we spent time out of our lives reading it. It's cognitive dissonance (Ooooooooo look at us using big words) it its silliest form. If you don't know what cognitive dissonance is, go look it up. Then you will have learned something from this and won't feel bad from wasting time on it!

    HA HA HA. Just kidding, we didn't actually laugh that hard. Or at all. We kind of rolled our eyes and breathed out strongly through our nose (you know that one - it's the same one you do when you're typing lolololololololol to a friend after they send you a meme but it's not actually funny enough to laugh).
