Mr Draper was last seen leaving his workplace on Friday 3 August 2001 at Mount Pritchard Community Club, Mount Pritchard, NSW, Australia, driving his 1992 white Ford Falcon. A colleague was the last to see the bartender alive, leaving the car park in the early hours of the morning.
Mr Draper’s vehicle was later located at Leppington on Monday 17 September 2001, unlocked and undamaged, dumped outside a Rebels bikie clubhouse. It had been wiped clean, leaving detectives with no forensic evidence. A forensic examination of the vehicle was conducted; however, no further evidence was obtained.
Police confirmed that Mr Draper had not used or accessed his phone or bank accounts since his disappearance.
No one has been charged in relation to Mr Draper’s disappearance, and his body has never been located.
Police believe he was killed after witnessing a murder. The only possible explanation for Mr Draper's disappearance was a fatal bashing he witnessed while working at a Liverpool pub in 1995. Mr Draper was subsequently a Crown witness during the trial. He gave evidence against underworld figure Andrew Perish. Perish was cleared of that murder, but he and brother Anthony went on to plot and dismember police informant Terry Falconer.
“I know there would be people out there who know exactly what happened with Ian,” homicide squad Commander Detective Superintendent Danny Doherty said. “We’re not looking just only for an arrest and conviction of those responsible for Ian’s disappearance and ultimate murder, but we also are trying to get some information about the remains of Ian - where the location might be.”
“I’ve got no doubt people know what happened to him and I got no doubt they know who was responsible.”
Ian’s mother, Janet Draper, said her family miss Ian more than words can express.
“Last week was Ian’s birthday and we have now spent 20 years without him, missing out on celebrating these milestones and many other special family occasions,” Mrs Draper said.
“Ian was a loving son, brother, uncle and friend and taken far too soon.

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

“All benefits in life come from compound interest, whether in money, relationships, love, health, activities, or habits.” The Almanack Of Naval Ravikant By Eric Jorgensen
“Compounding works best when you can give a plan years or decades to grow. This is true for not only savings but careers and relationships. Endurance is key. And when you consider our tendency to change who we are over time, balance at every point in your life becomes a strategy to avoid future regret and encourage endurance.” The Psychology Of Money By Morgan Housel
“All big things come from small beginnings. The seed of every habit is a single, tiny decision. But as that decision is repeated, a habit sprouts and grows stronger. Roots entrench themselves and branches grow. The task of breaking a bad habit is like uprooting a powerful oak within us. And the task of building a good habit is like cultivating a delicate flower one day at a time.” Atomic Habits By James Clear
“Hard work is like compound interest at the bank. The rewards build faster.” The Last Lecture By Randy Pausch
AGING AND STARTING SOMETHING NEW:
“As you grow, you learn more. If you stayed at twenty-two, you’d always be as ignorant as you were at twenty-two. Aging is not just decay, it’s growth. It’s more than the negative that you’re going to die, it’s also the positive that you understand you’re going to die, and that you live a better life because of it.” Tuesday’s With Morrie By Mitch Albom

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
What did 0 say to 8 ?
" Nice Belt "
So What did 3 say to 8 ?
" Hey, you two stop making out "
I won't be doing that today!

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.
Daughter: I'm hungry
Me: nerves building, smile widening
Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.
She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.
Thank you all for listening.

Me: "Awe man... This is a damn bird box!" Her: "What the hell does that mean?!" Me: (Pulls both cans out & shows them to her) "It's only got Toucans."
I'm not ashamed to admit the look on her face was glorious.

These Zionists are literal Nazis, and always have been. This is a very dark, taboo piece of knowledge but which has been documented at length and has now become undisputed in academic circles. If, as a historian, you ask, "who financed and supported Hitler?", and if you're intellectually honest, you will arrive at an extremely difficult conclusion. You will realize the early Zionist forefathers' horrid antisemitism, and the way they supported and financed the Nazis, mostly through Wall Street banks. Wall Street and the Rise of Hitler, by Anthony Sutton. Full book PDF 51 Documents, by Lenni Brenner. Full book PDF https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Paperclip https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haavara_Agreement You will then understand how a "great catastrophe" was needed in Europe to fulfill the eschatological script ("two-thirds shall not return") and to convince ordinary, decent Jews to move to that God-forsaken piece of land in the near East. When they ask me, can you not use funds to rescue Jews in the Diaspora? I said No and I repeat No! -- Itzhak Greenbaum (the Zionist leader in charge of the rescue efforts, he said this in 1943) The hope of six million Jews is focused on rising up from the depth of tragedy. I wish to save two million youth. The elderly will perish and await their final destiny. They are, economically and ethically –sub human-in cruel world. -- Chaim Weizmann (leader of the Zionist Organisation and later the first Israeli President, he said this in 1937) If I knew it was possible to save all [Jewish] children of Germany by their transfer to England and only half of them by transferring them to Eretz-Yisrael, I would choose the latter—because we are faced not only with the accounting of these [Jewish] children but also with the historical accounting of the Jewish People. -- David Ben Gurion (first Israeli prime minister, he said this in 1938) These people represent the height of criminality, cynicism and ruthlessness. Once a Nazi, always a Nazi. Nazi stands for National Zionist; Nazi and Zion are also not anagrams by chance (a and o being interchangeable in Hebrew). This is the tip of the iceberg.

Saying that “Zionism”, a belief that calls for a Jewish homeland is exactly the same as Nazism. Some of the people reading this believe that it means something else but it’s not. Believing that Jews don’t deserve a hom

Hello I am a student working on an essay about Shakespeare's Anthony and Cleopatra.
I have to discuss/comment upon this quote from George Bernard Shaw
“After giving a faithful picture of the soldier broken down by debauchery, and the typical wanton in whose arms such men perish, Shakespear finally strains all his huge command of rhetoric and stage pathos to give a theatrical sublimity to the wretched end of the business, and to persuade foolish spectators that the world was well lost by the twain”.
I'm usually good at writing essays but for some reason I have been unable to focus on this one and I'm unsure of the essay plan and question to go with so I was wondering if anyone could help me a little (to be clear i don't want my essay written for me I just need some ideas of what to say as I'm really indecisive and anxious about saying the wrong things) and I figured this subreddit would know what to say.
When I got home, they were still there.
