Text Your Partner These 15 Punny Jokes To Make Them LOL

Dad jokes are funny — that is the hill I am willing to die on. Maybe they aren't "cool," but it takes serious wit and timing to rock a dad joke. And let's be honest, you know you can't help but at least smile when someone lands a so-bad-it's-good pun. The best thing is that they work just as well face-to-face as they do in text format. So, the next time you want to put a silly smile on your loved one's face, having a few punny jokes to text your partner in your back pocket just might make their day.

Life isn't always easy, but you don't have to be serious all the time. Why not send your partner a message that will lift their spirits, or at least make them groan (while secretly loving it)? According to Dr. Fran Walfish, a Beverly Hills family and relationship psychotherapist and author of The Self-Aware Parent, sharing a similar sense of humor and finding ways to joke together can help create a strong bond in your relationship. "A shared mutual sense of humor is very important to me and should be important in a relationship," Dr. Walfish previously told Elite Daily. "It's part of the glue that bonds partners together as a couple.” One great way to get the laughs started is by sending one of these punny jokes.
