Knew the risk, paid the price, hope the dentist can get me in next week after Monday.
For me, no long car drive was complete without my Dad coming out the petrol station with a bag of these bad boys for the next 6-7 hours.
As much as I hate to make a HailCorporate kind of post, this was annoying me.
Selection tin leftovers FTW!

Or am i just strange
I think many people here are curious so I will give my analysis. I am a wrestling fan even since I know English , may be starting from 2001-2002 . ( Still weak in English so grammer Nazis stay back ) .
If you watch Indian movies or I suggest you watch r/BollywoodRealism you will see that the type of entertainment we prefer excalty matches pro-wrestling.
Those are :
- Heroism
- Hero Vs Villian ( Similar to Face vs Heel)
- Something not too serious but just enough to get us out of our real world for 3 hrs .
Wrestling just naturally suits out preference an especially the WCW and WWE style totally does.
So much so that The Great Khali's awefull YouTube Wrestling promotion called CWE has already 40Lakh or 4 million subscribers and 100 crore or 1 billion total views. Most viewed video is 10 crore or 100 million . I don't see those as good views as people don't get involved or even have a fan fare , same comes with other views you see in YouTube.
Internet is so cheap in India that we view anything and everything.
The Wrestling fanbase in India per time line
-
Hulkamania Era : The first wrestling boom in the western world happened in the 80s but as far as I know there are very very few Hulkamania Era fans in India , mostly because back in the 80s we were a 3rd world country and had one TV in the whole neighbourhood and there was no scope at all to even try western products.
-
Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels era : The early 90s had Narasimha Rao as the PM who lead India towards its first growth , the growth was so drastic that we became a 2nd world Country within the span of 4-5 years and this is the time when finally we started watching Wrestling. Bret Hart and Michaels are first to reach India
-
Attitude Era and Goldberg era : This I can say is the absolute rising time for pro wrestling in India. >50% of people born in 80s have watched wrestling in this time , every single 80s born I know have, I can say the real fan base started here and the biggest Wrestling attractions I have seen are Goldberg , Undertaker , Triple H and The Rock , very less stone cold for some reason , may be it's among people around me , I don't know .
Goldberg by far is the most over Wrestler in India , I remember that the whole school were discussing in 2003 when Goldberg came to WWE as to how Rock is a good Wrestler just to step inside the ring with Goldberg because no one can do that . Or my uncle's group arguing as to how Brock Lesnar is nothing compared
... keep reading on reddit ➡We've been going through a tub of Cadbury Heroes in the office this week, and are now getting to the dregs.
I like full size Double Deckers, though they tend to be a bit much sweetness-wise, so I thought a Dinky Decker would be fab. Incorrect.
I can't tell if it's just not possible to get all the component parts - nougat, crispy bits, and chocolate coating - in the right proportions or if they don't use the same ingredients in the mini ones, but there is very little resemblance to the full size bar.
Now stuck with Eclairs, Fudges, bitter disappointment, and an impending sugar crash. Will write Mr Cadbury a sternly-worded letter when my hands stop shaking.
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.
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!
They’re on standbi
Buenosdillas
Pilot on me!!
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.
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.
There hasn't been a post all year!
It’s pronounced “Noel.”
