Well I don't know about anyone else...
...but I don't really mind the prospect of being doomed to tell Dad jokes (I'll be a dad in April!). Maybe I'm in the minority, but I actually look back on my dad's shit jokes with a sort of fondness...

My Dad's worst 'joke' was to do 'funny' things with his childrens' names.

For example, my brother's name is Joe, who was often mockingly called "Vinegar Joe" (early 70's rock band) when he put salt and vinegar on his chips. Since he was born about 10 years after the release of Vinegar Joe's first album, the joke went straight over his head. Didn't stop my dad going into hysterics though. I seem to remember that Joe got so pissed off with it (at age 7 or 8) that he got up one day and stormed away from the dinner table.

My other brother Daniel, was 'christened' "Daniel Boon". At the time, he'd have only been about six or seven so didn't really understand the 18th Century American Colonel reference. Again my dad thought this was hilarious.

I was quite lucky in having the middle name, Luke. So I was "Luke Skywalker" :)
