Man Posts the Most Punderful Dad Jokes on a Community Road Sign
By Sara Barnes on September 5, 2019

Rozmiarek’s puns run the gamut and include jokes about trees, kitchen appliances, zoos, and even electricity. He usually posts a new original pun twice a week and has never repeated any of his messages. That makes phrases like “I want to make pancakes but I keep waffling” and “A few puns make me numb but math puns make me number” the result of dedicated joke research.
