30 Quick and Easy Dad Jokes To Use During Those Awkward Family Holiday Parties

With family holiday parties this season right around the corner, you might be anxiously awaiting the obligatory awkward moments that are bound to come with it. As a single woman in her 30's, I'm mentally preparing to get unwanted questions about my love life and well, my love life. I've learned to casually deflect these comments and questions by throwing some bad dad jokes into the conversation. Somehow, everyone loves a dad joke and it makes them completely forget what they asked to begin with. It's at least engaging enough to make them laugh so you can excuse yourself for another round of spiked eggnog. 

To prepare, come to your holiday parties armed with at least 5 bad jokes. As you work the room, you can always reuse the jokes as needed. You'll be seen as the funniest woman at the party and not be the focal point of your latest life gossip. We've rounded up the latest and greatest dad jokes to get you started.
