corny jokes
Eye-roll inducing puns
Corny jokes are humorous attempts that rely on obvious puns, predictable punchlines, or wholesome wordplay—the kind that elicit groans rather than genuine laughter.
The corniness is often the point: Dad specializes in corny jokes about vegetables.
Despite—or because of—their lack of sophistication, corny jokes have enduring appeal, especially among parents amusing children.
