Random Dad Joke

How it works

Every joke is bundled right into the page, so each time you load it or tap "Another One" a random one is picked instantly using your browser's built-in cryptographic randomness. Tap "Show Punchline" when you are ready for the groan.

Nothing is sent anywhere. There is no API, no network request, and no server involved. Turn off Wi-Fi and it still works. No cookies, no tracking, no accounts.

Frequently asked questions

Will I see the same joke twice?

There are 50 jokes bundled in the page. Each pick avoids repeating the one currently on screen, so you never get the exact same joke back to back. Over a longer sitting you will start to see earlier ones come around again.

Why is the punchline hidden until I tap a button?

The setup shows first so you can guess the answer before the groan. Tap "Show Punchline" to reveal it, then "Another One" loads a fresh setup with its punchline hidden again.

Does it work without an internet connection?

Yes. Every joke lives in the page itself, so once it has loaded you can turn off Wi-Fi and keep tapping "Another One". No request is ever made after the page arrives.

How random is the joke picker?

It uses your browser's built-in cryptographic randomness (crypto.getRandomValues), not Math.random, so each joke is equally likely rather than following a predictable pattern.
