Adeel Akhtar Puns

Apologies if this is the wrong place for this... I recently made a Sci-Fi photobook / graphic novel with Adeel Akhtar and thought it may be of interest to fans of Utopia. It's called Basic Pleasure Model and ties together themes of big budget sci-fi, masculinity and fishing.

Looking at the long list, no one else makes much sense.

Assuming that Cumberbatch and Garfield are the two membership votes, Denzel should definitely get in for a critically acclaimed Shakespeare performance. Stephen Graham and Adeel Akhtar are probably getting in too.

So you have one spot left and unless they go for a wild card like Mahershala Ali or Riz Ahmed, Smith seems like the pretty safe choice? And the entire idea is highlight POC which I mean you'd obviously get with Ali and Ahmed as well but I don't think they'd snub the black Oscar frontrunner.

• Cumberbatch
• Garfield
• Washington
• Graham
• Akhtar
• Smith

are who I'm thinking now.

It would be cool to have Ahmed or Ali get in but I'm not sure that's happening.

As for the winner, I think they'd either go with the frontrunner - Smith (I'm actually pretty sure Smith will win SAG, despite considering Garfield at one point, because he pulled Ensemble as well) or go with the British highbrow pick - Cumberbatch. I do think it'll come down to these two but I'm not as sure of Cumberbatch being taken for granted as the winner as others. I can see Will win all the way too maybe.

CONTINUED FROM PART 1...

At Iron Heights, Joe visits Henry Allen. He promises that he finally believes Henry and that he knows he hadn't killed Nora, and he was finally reopening the case. He apologized, though Henry states that he never cared about Joe's belief in him, but his belief in Barry. Meanwhile, tired after the encounter, Barry gets back to the crime lab and works on his case files. Joe comes in with 20 boxes of pizza for Barry. Joe tells Barry that he knows why Barry is doing what he is doing and that he is just worried. Barry says that he gets it and that a friend made him see the blindspots of his anger. Joe also thanks Barry for looking out for Iris. They eat in comfortable silence. At long last, Joe slowly says, that they will clear his father's name and get justice for his mother. Barry apologizes to Joe and says that while Joe is not his father, he is pretty darn close. The two men smile, and they look over case files together.

In a futuristic looking room, the mysterious time-traveller stares at the quantum device and a yellow suit and smiles. He then says to himself that all he needs now is the tachyon device to regain his speed and he will be unbeatable. That night, Barry sees the Flash again. The Flash attempts to contact him but it is getting harder and harder due to quantum interference. All Barry hears are two words, “Trap” and “Well” before he wakes up.

At college, Barry and Patty talk with Patty expressing displeasure at him for disappearing on her the other morning. She is confused about how Barry feels, and Barry needs to communicate better. This causes a strain in their relationship. As they talk, across the street Barry sees a man in a yellow suit. Remembering his mother’s killer, Barry looks at the man, petrified much to Patty’s bafflement. When Patty turns around, there is no one across the street. She turns back around and Barry is gone. Barry runs through town looking for the man in yellow but comes up with nothing.

At Mercury Labs, a physicist is going about his daily systems checks when a speedster in yellow comes and kills several guards. Luckily the physicist locks himself with the tachyon device in a quantum flux chamber. The yellow speedster attempts to get inside the chamber but fails. Later Barry, Eddie and Joe investigate the scene. Eddie speaks wit

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

The nurse asked the rabbit, “what is your blood type?”

“I am probably a type O” said the rabbit.

Mentos

(I will see myself out)

The doctor says it terminal.

Alot of great jokes get posted here! However just because you have a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke.

THIS IS NOT ABOUT NSFW, THIS IS ABOUT LONG JOKES, BLONDE JOKES, SEXUAL JOKES, KNOCK KNOCK JOKES, POLITICAL JOKES, ETC BEING POSTED IN A DAD JOKE SUB

Try telling these sexual jokes that get posted here, to your kid and see how your spouse likes it.. if that goes well, Try telling one of your friends kid about your sex life being like Coca cola, first it was normal, than light and now zero , and see if the parents are OK with you telling their kid the "dad joke"

I'm not even referencing the NSFW, I'm saying Dad jokes are corny, and sometimes painful, not sexual

So check out r/jokes for all types of jokes

r/unclejokes for dirty jokes

r/3amjokes for real weird and alot of OC

r/cleandadjokes If your really sick of seeing not dad jokes in r/dadjokes

Punchline !

Edit: this is not a post about NSFW , This is about jokes, knock knock jokes, blonde jokes, political jokes etc being posted in a dad joke sub

Edit 2: don't touch the thermostat

We told her she can lean on us for support. Although, we are going to have to change her driver's license, her height is going down by a foot. I don't want to go too far out on a limb here but it better not be a hack job.

Ants don’t even have the concept fathers, let alone a good dad joke. Keep r/ants out of my r/dadjokes.

But no, seriously. I understand rule 7 is great to have intelligent discussion, but sometimes it feels like 1 in 10 posts here is someone getting upset about the jokes on this sub. Let the mods deal with it, they regulate the sub.

They were cooked in Greece.

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.

Now that I listen to albums, I hardly ever leave the house.

Said if she ever hosts a gender reveal party, when it comes time to pop the balloon she'll spray everyone with water.

Gender is fluid.

Two muffins are in an oven, one muffin looks at the other and says "is it just me, or is it hot in here?"

Then the other muffin says "AHH, TALKING MUFFIN!!!"

Don't you know a good pun is its own reword?

But let me give it a shot.
