Funny Father’s Day card greetings
Let’s face it, dads are funny. They can be clumsy, awkward, hilariously incompetent. Dads snore, burp and belch. This is just how they are. Why not use all that comedic potential in the card we give dad on Father’s Day? Skip the heartfelt and emotional – go with a joke. But make it personal and specific – not just a run of the mill pun. But if push comes to shove you can always use one of our personal favorites:
- Happy Farter’s Day!!!
- Dad, I donut know what I’d do without you.
- Look, you are my father

Even the toughest dad will not be able to hold back his tears of joy and pride.
We’re not going to give you specifics, as each relationship is a snowflake, simply pour your heart out. That’s do the trick.
