“My father walks into a bar…” (bar joke)

“A guy walks into a bar…”  is a typical form of what has been called the “bar joke.” One version—an anti-joke—is:
 
“A man walked into a bar…and stayed there for the rest of my childhood.”
 
“So this man walks into a bar…and he stays there for the rest of my childhood…” was posted on Twitter on April 14, 2010. “A man walked into a bar… and he stated there my entire fucking childhood” was posted on Reddit—Jokes on October 31. 2012. “My father walks into a bar…  And stays there for the rest of my childhood” was posted on Reddit on September 25, 2016.
