These Boomer Dad Jokes Are Better Than Any Comedy Special

There’s something inherently funny (and a bit mean-spirited, if we’re being honest) about poking fun at someone’s height. Of course, we can’t help but feel a bit sorry for those who are vertically challenged. After all, it’s not their fault that they can’t reach the top shelf. But this dad’s joke serves as a reminder that sometimes it’s okay to laugh at ourselves.

I can just picture the frustration of trying to reach something on a high shelf only to realize that it’s just out of reach. It’s a struggle that short people everywhere can surely relate to. But hey, at least they’ve got a sense of humor about it, right? And for that, we have to hand it to them. (Pun intended.)
