That's a nigger dad joke, technically.

Came to say something similar. Opening line should be:

When does a dad joke become a nigger joke?

Or, for an audience that is not yet fully in tune with their inner Hitler:

When does a dad joke become dark humor?

Everyone would anticipate the punchline with that lead in because there is only one joke to make about niggers and dads.

True. Go for the dark humor version then. It's less... on the nose.

Well done. I would tweak it once more to, "When does a light dad joke become a dark dad joke?"
