Get the Carter Jokemug. Someone who steals, or poaches, other people's jokes and takes credit for the joke. Poaching usually occurs when a joke poacher heres another person tell a joke and repeats said joke in a louder more obnoxious way for all to hear.
John mumbled a joke under his breath. Will heard the joke and repeated it loudly in a crowded room. Everyone laughed at the hilarious joke and Will took credit for coming up with it. Will is a joke poacher.

Get the Joking Ghostmug. A joke (typically a play on words) that is loaded with cheese and is lacking in originality and comedic value. Dad jokes are most often performed by people who have lost their way in the fields of comedy due to years of strenuous fatherhood and laboring in the workforce.
While it is possible for a dad joke to be genuinely enjoyable, the odds of that happening are slim to none.
