Visayan Dad Jokes

In the part of the Philippines where I live, the language spoken is not Tagalog, the national language, originating in the north of the country, but Visayan, a related but distinct idiom. I’m always trying to improve my knowledge of Visayan, I progress in bursts separated by too long periods of idleness. I had previously written some poems in the language, this time I am going for some dad-jokes!

I give myself a 2.8 out of 10 on the Bill Hicks scale of joke quality, with 1.8 bonus points since this is my 4th language, reaching a total of 4.6/10 Hicks points. Here we go:
