"ArE YoU A buLL to weAR a NoSE RinG?" - this was a first thing my dad told me when he saw my nose ring for the first time. Typical dad jokes you know. Then he joked about me merging in AFRICA among locals thanks to my piercing when i told him about my first trip there.

I am coming down to ZA AND THE FIRST THING I HEAR FROM LOCAL DAD: ARE YOU A BULL TO WEAR NOSE RING
I DIED
YES SIR YES I AM BUT NOT THE ONE YOU ARE THINKING OF

Apparently it is some kind of universal dad joke across the globe. I wonder if they were issued some kind of joke manual along with a newborn.
