9 Funny Father's Day Quotes

Dads — we love them, and they love us, but that doesn't stop the child/father relationship from having some pretty tough, and at times, frustrating moments. Fortunately, as these nine funny Father's Day quotes demonstrate, most of us can laugh at the disconnects between dad and daughter (or son) after the fact (and sometimes during it!). No matter how much your dad might drive you crazy, you always know his intentions are good, and that counts for quite a bit.

From having to pick out a Father's Day gift for your pops to the anxiety-ridden task of being responsible for a tiny human being, it's easy to make jokes about fathers and children. Jon Stewart, Jim Gaffigan, and Jerry Seinfeld definitely agree with me on this front, and their quotes are some of the funniest that exist on the topic of being a dad.

No matter where you are in life, I think you'll get some enjoyment from these quotes below. That's the thing about dads — everyone has one, and everyone can relate. The other important thing to realize about dads is that none of them are perfect, and neither are the children that they raise. Once we can all get past that vitally important truth, the topic of fatherhood becomes a lot more joyful and filled with humor... and who doesn't want that?
