“Dad Jokes” are a specific kind of joke, which typically make people groan, because they’re so terrible. See !dadjokes@lemmy.world, for example.
But his sentence could also mean that he tells jokes to his dad. She notices that and asks about it, therefore making a Dad Joke herself.
He doesn’t get the Dad Joke, which exposes him as perhaps not being very good at the whole Dad Joke thing.
Please explain this to my not native speaker brain

I like to tell (my) dad jokes
What if they are brother and sister?
Then it’d be (our) instead of (my).
But I was reading the meme as if they were potential dates
I like to tell my dad jokes to anybody willing to listen.
Does your father laugh at the jokes you tell him?
and then go home (you missed it)
