Everyone on Twitter is making the same dad joke right now

Dad… is that you?

OVER THE LAST couple of days, there have been several stories about bee swarms in Britain.

Strangely, all the bee stories have involved cars or clothes.

Which has opened the field for every single person on Twitter to make the exact same dad joke.

Yes, this one:

@TheDespard @HuffPostUK @elsa_rose @AdzArmstrong Some customers must've had a bee in their bonnet as a result.

Seriously, everyone was at it. Basically being on Twitter was the exact equivalent of talking to your dad.

But the overall prize goes to this man, who made the dad-joke in reply to a tweet making the same dad-joke. Making it a meta-dad-joke.

@itvnews I wonder if he had a bee in his bonnet!
