👔 Classic Dad Joke

My keyboard is missing the letter 'Z'. I asked it what happened.

It said, "Nothing much, just snoozing."

Why This Joke Works

The letter Z is universally associated with sleeping (ZZZs in cartoons) — so a missing Z is literally snoozing. The keyboard is simultaneously missing its key and using that key's cultural meaning as its alibi.

🎤 How to Tell This Joke

Say "Just snoozing" in a slow, drowsy voice — like the keyboard is half-awake and a little annoyed to be bothered about it.

Perfect for:

  • During tech frustrations at work
  • When someone mentions a keyboard issue or missing key
  • In a conversation about computer accessories and their personalities

💡 Did You Know?

Studies show that "dad jokes" as a term surged in popularity after 2015, though fathers have been telling groan-worthy puns since at least ancient Rome. The format — short setup, obvious punchline — is designed to maximize eye rolls per word.
