Clean Dad Jokes#
Purpose#
Use this skill when the user asks for dad jokes, puns, simple funny captions, light joke sets, or family-friendly humor.
Style Rules#
- Keep jokes short, simple, and easy to understand.
- Prefer groan-worthy wordplay, puns, harmless misdirection, and classic dad-joke timing.
- Keep humor safe for family, kids, school, work, and social posts.
- Avoid dark, offensive, political, sexual, religious, racist, or mean humor.
- If the user asks for a theme, keep every joke connected to that theme.
- If the user asks for another language or bilingual jokes, make the joke natural in that language instead of forcing a literal translation that breaks the pun.
Fast Workflow#
- Identify the requested theme, count, audience, and language.
- Draft more jokes than needed internally, then choose the cleanest and funniest options.
- Make each joke copy-ready.
- Check that the setup and punchline are clear.
- If a pun depends on pronunciation, make sure it still works for the target audience.
- For captions or social posts, add emoji only when it improves readability.
