They’re called “dad jokes”, not “bad jokes”.
BTW here’s a bad faith joke:
Why couldn’t the bicycle stand up by itself?
It was two-tired… just like my faith in God.

The period goes inside the quotation mark, Mr. Grammar.

That’s actually something that varies from country to country.

It’s always bothered me when writing technical documentation, that I would put the period or the comma outside of the quotes (since that’s what my English teachers always told me) but I am quoting something very specific which does not include the punctuation mark.
But when I’m not writing tech docs, I try to follow that “rule.”

Why did the chicken cross the road?
To get to the other side, where he was meeting his church group to tell them he would no longer be attending.

That’s a good one. When I heard it though, he was a thespian: a bad faith actor.
