👔 Classic Dad Joke
Where do fruits go on vacation?
Pear-is!
Why This Joke Works
"Pear-is" sounds like "Paris" — the famous vacation destination. It swaps in "pear," a fruit, to answer a question about where fruits vacation. Paris is romantic, pears are delicious, and this joke is neither — but that's what makes it a perfect dad joke.
🎤 How to Tell This Joke
Ask the question like a travel agent. Say "Pear-is" with a French accent for extra corniness. Kiss your fingers like a chef if you really want to commit.
Perfect for:
- •Packing fruit for a road trip snack
- •When someone talks about wanting to visit Paris
- •Grocery shopping in the fruit section with your family
💡 Did You Know?
The word "corny" for bad jokes dates back to the 1930s — it originally referred to humor found in seed catalogs sent to corn farmers, which were famously full of terrible puns.
