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.

Engineer by training, but with a thing for the written word. Married, with a cat: Ludovic.

Likes: Literature, Art in all its forms (Old Masters), Architecture, History, Philosophy!, Linguistics, languages (Spanish, German, French, Russian), antiques, vintage clothing, classical/jazz/electronic music, hot drinks: tea, hot chocolate, coffee in all its forms.

Favorite Series: Frasier, Basil Rathbone’s Sherlock Holmes series, Yes Minister, yes prime minister, British period dramas (too many to mention).

Books: too many to mention, but essentially the classics, rereading Henry James and Charles Dickens.

Movies: the list is too long, but the classics are close to my heart > Pygmalion, Philadelphia Story, Casa Blanca, All about eve, Some like it hot, ….the Fortune Cookie, the pianist, Shakespeare in love, Howard´s end, Remains of the day, Painted veil, Midnight in Paris, Benjamin Button, Atonement, Revolutionary Road, Dangerous liaisons, wow, that turned out to be a long list……mmm works by Billy Wilder & I.A.L. Diamond, Hampton’s screenplays, Joe Wright’s film aesthetics, some of Andersons. I like movies with good scripts and compelling stories. I also like 3D animation and some Argentine films.

Lived in Germany for 2 years and so, then the pandemic happened. Don’t feel I explored Europe as much as I wished. Planning a return. Can understand spoken German but still working on sentence construction and fluent speech production.

Maybe this will draw the attention of someone with similar or different likes. All are welcomed.

So Red recently released the most recent Trope Talks video on Detectives, so I think it's a good opportunity to discuss which stories most successfully utilize the trope, and which ones didn't. Who are your favorite and least favorite fictional detectives?

Do your worst!

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.

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 😂

It really does, I swear!

Hello everyone, Alpinia here, and I'm proud to bring to you one of the largest updates to Kaiserreich so far - 0.18 'Forest Brothers'. The new reworked nations brought to you this time around are none other than Bhutan, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Wales and White Ruthenia. But of course, it doesn't stop there, with a whole host of literally hundreds of other additions, improvements and fixes, as detailed in the full patch notes enclosed.

For some of the more prominent changes, check out the abridged patch notes below.

Changes

Notable Additions

• Kaiserreich now has its own implementation of Player-Led Peace Conferences and the State Transfer Tool. These can be activated via game rules, though if you are in debug mode then the State Transfer Tool is available by default. Note that, if you decide to use the PLPC or STT mods anyhow, it won’t break anything - you just won’t get our updates to them.
• Japan’s intervention in China has been modified to be more in line with the vanilla version.
• Japan’s "Fading Sun" peace mechanic with China has now been changed. Russia and China are dealt with by separate scripted peace events, and Japan has different levels of surrender ranging from minor defeat to total capitulation - they no longer lose their faction and all ability to declare war the moment Korea and Manchuria are occupied.
• Total download size of the base mod has been reduced by ~50%, thanks to standardising most gfx to .png format.
• The remainder of the former rework to Kaiserreich’s naval system has now been removed, bringing the naval system fully in line with vanilla's, save for names.

New Focus Trees

• Estonia
• Latvia
• Wales

Reworked/Expanded Focus Trees

• Bhutan
• Lithuania
• Belarus/White Ruthenia

Tweaked Focus Trees

• Independent Belgium (Foreign Policy)
• French Republic (If Germany has fallen before they return to the Métropole)

New Events

• If the Reichspakt dissolves, a German-puppet Brittany will now seek to rejoin the rest of France.
• The Commune of France can now demand Dunkirk from Belgium if the latter asks for an alliance.
• Added peace events between Yunnan and German East Asia, Vietnam & Indochina.
• Added events for the Sino-Japanese War.
• Added some flavour events for the League of Eight Provinces and Liangguang.
• Added an event for Legation Cities upon the end of the American Civil War and some flavour events.
• Added some events regarding the Romanian annexation of Alföld.
• Added an event for Shandong v

They’re on standbi

Nothing, he was gladiator.

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 "

When I got home, they were still there.

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.

Where ever you left it 🤷‍♀️🤭

There hasn't been a post all year!

You take away their little brooms

It was about a weak back.

Why

It’s pronounced “Noel.”

After all his first name is No-vac

What, then, is Chinese rap?

Edit:

Notable mentions from the comments:
