The Disappearing Dad

This is a dark joke playing on the idea that the dad disappeared, as if he's a magician like Houdini, but in a more literal, morbid way. The comparison with Houdini is ironic since Houdini was known for escaping, not disappearing permanently.

• Is your dad a magician? Because he magically disappeared.
• My father is like Houdini. When he heard his girlfriend was pregnant, he disappeared.
• I told a kid his dad is a magician because he disappeared and never came back home.
• What is the difference between Harry Houdini and everyone else in my life? Harry was the only person not to disappear.
