The "Pike" quote - that's from a BBC serial from about 30 years ago - Dad's Army. The setting is the homeguard in WW2 in a very small village and the captain of the platoon is very self-important and takes it hugely seriously, that they will be responsible for defeating the Germans. The platoon is made up of very motley and mostly somewhat geriatric folk. One day the Germans find themselves invading and reach our friends doing their drill and pick on the hapless Pike (who is very very wet and about 17 and asks him his name. To which the captain says bossily "don't tell him Pike". The Germans duly note that in their book.

The humour may well be lost for that specific joke not knowing the BBC series and also it was very specific to the characters who made it more funny.

As for laughter, the spirits love to play, they love joy and gladness. yes they comfort and surround us in sadness but they desire for us to be happy. So yes, tell your dad funny stories of what you did when you were a kid, memories that are specific to you or him.

And, I'm so happy that you have a joy when you see his pictures. I look at dad and smile rather sadly.
