The Greatest Thanksgiving Dad Jokes Feast For The Hungry Heart

I once tried to host Thanksgiving by myself because I believed that cooking a turkey was the same as heating up pizza rolls. It was not even close. My family walked in and stared at the bird like it was a science experiment. It was shaped like a shoe and had the same texture. Someone actually asked if it came from a thrift store.

This moment taught me two things. Thanksgiving is a serious kitchen battle. Thanksgiving dad jokes are just as important as stuffing and gravy. So let us laugh and pretend that my turkey never happened.

It feels like the holiday spirit.I hope these thanksgiving dad jokes​ made your Thanksgiving brighter than my overcooked bird. If you ever need more laughter just follow the sound of bad jokes and slightly burnt turkey. I will be there waiting with more silliness and probably cranberry sauce on my shirt.
