Unless your conception was nonstandard, saying your father was a motherfucker can be true, and it can clearly be used as a pun. If it was meant as a pun (and regardless of its accuracy), it's not automatically offensive, though some people would find the language offensive regardless. But, if it's just a joke about how certain phrases evoke certain ideas that are outside of their literal truth, it's not offensive to most.
