*"My boy asked me"...try and avoid reuse of the punch line.

"my kid" is more natural sounding and indicates parenthood a bit more obviously.

Reuse of the punch line within the setup diminishes the tension. Subsequently the payoff is less effective.

The punch line is that "son" and "sun" sound the same. "my kid" isn't a reuse of the punchline any more than "my boy" is, but it reads less awkwardly.

"My boy" is perfectly acceptable too. Might be a regional thing but it does exactly what you said.

There's an art to comedy and along with art comes the critique

My inner Neil Degrasse Tyson wants to object, but my outer dad bod is well insulated enough to shut him up

Did I just see someone do a Disco Elysium skill check in the middle of Lemmy?
Well played.

Kind of funny how the critics never post dad jokes.
