Thirty years ago I was young and poor. Now, after three decades of hard work and dedication and struggle and pain I’m no longer young.
I know. I was young and stupid once. But now…
My wife found out I was cheating because she came across some letters I had been hiding from her. She’s not going to play Scrabble with me again.

I once dated a communist. I should have known better: there were a lot of red flags.
When you’re wearing rose-coloured glasses, red flags just look like flags.
Why can a nudist defeat a knight in full armor?
The pen is mightier than the sword!
I drove by a prison the other day and saw a dwarf climbing down the wall to escape.
I thought it was a little condescending.
I wanted to make some puns about retired people, but they just don’t work.

I spent $100 on a limo, but it didn’t even come with a driver. All that money and nothing to chauffeur it.
I don’t get it.
Sounds like “nothing to show for it.”
What’s wrong with my brain: nothing is right on the left side, and nothing is left on the right side.

I missed the homophone, which is pretty stupid of me, as a lot of dad jokes rely on this. I just couldn’t get over how cheap the limo was.
I finally finished writing an academic journal article on ancient clay tablets.
In hindsight, it might have been faster to write it on a computer.
I had a mental image of you pressing a pointy stick into clay, with a pile of tablets beside you, even before I read the punchline and realised I shouldn’t have interpreted that first line literally.

Writing it on a computer would probably also be less dirty.
