SERIOUS: This subreddit needs to understand what a "dad joke" really means.

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.

Which films did you watch last week? (12.12.2021 - 12.18.2021)

Hello, FGers. The weekly thread is here. I liked the response last week. Here is hoping this week is similar if not better.

This was in store for me in the last fortnight. Twelve in all, six in each week :


I Love You to Death (1990, Lawrence Kasdan) :

I loved this film. It is now my second favourite Kasdan film after Body Heat. It is about a typical Italian-American womanizer whose wife comes to know about his shenanigans and decides to kill him - but even after multiple attempts, he refuses to die. All the actors have done well, especially Joan Plowright and William Hurt are both amazing. I had not imagined that Hurt could be so funny but he makes the character of a stoner look so realistic and effortless.

9/10


The Forgotten (2004, Joseph Ruben) :

The plot of this film is like Bunny Lake Is Missing meets Dark City. It starts out as a psychological thriller about a possibly mentally ill woman but after half an hour turns into a chase movie and ends with a laughable motivation behind a mass disappearance. I did not dislike it: it had catchy visual look to it, Julianne Moore's acting is commendable and it had its share of shock moments to keep me interested. Just don't expect the final product to be anything groundbreaking.

5/10


The Presidio (1988, Peter Hyams) :

By 1988, the buddy cop sub-genre had been mined dry. The Presidio does nothing to breathe new life into it. The murder investigation plot is quite thin and poorly written, so in order to beef up the film's length, they add another subplot about Connery's daughter Meg Ryan getting romantically interested in Mark Harmon. This subplot is also equally thin as the other one. I am rating it as high as 4 simply because of Connery's and Jack Warden's acting performances. This material is way beneath the talents of either of them.

4/10

[American Comics] The Ric Grayson Saga - That time a beloved DC character went through a two-year amnesiac arc that fans from all corners hated

Gather 'round, folks. It's yet another Hobby Drama post about comic books, and how they keep drawing the ire of comic book fans. Today, we're going to talk about Dick Grayson, a beloved character who's been around for over 80 years, almost as long as Batman himself. He debuted as the original Robin in 1940, as a light-hearted foil to the darker Batman and has been a mainstay at DC comics ever since, as the core of the Bat Family, and the leader of the Teen Titans. Comic covers from the 60s and 70s were wild.

In the 1980s, during Marv Wolfman and George Perez's famed The New Teen Titans, Dick Grayson grew out the Robin role, and became Nightwing, proving that disco never dies. Since the 90s, Nightwing has had an ongoing solo series (usually centered in the city of BlΓΌdhaven) that has put up solid and reliable sales numbers.

Ask a DC reader why they like Nightwing, and they'll give you a number of reasons. They love that he's a multi-generational hero who takes on the empathy of Superman and the handy skills of Batman. They like that he's emotionally vulnerable and acts like a down-to-earth human being. They love the story of his growth from kid sidekick to a hero finding his own place in the world (a growth that has been adapted in popular shows such as Batman: The Animated Series and Young Justice). And that he's a memetic sex symbol. He also happens to be the center of a horrifically violent shipping war, but that's a write-up for another day.

Over the years, Nightwing has been subject to a number of editorially-mandated status quo changes. Some have been good, others not so much. Some comic fans are resistant to any kind of deviation from the status quo, while others welcome fresh new ideas and a change of pace. Nightwing fans tend to get very argumentative over who should write Di

Miach and Nazza rating Bell's ship

So for me I see Miach and Nazza as Bell's foster parents/ guardians who try and help Bell out with women so I just can't get the image out of my head of Nazza trying to set up both Cassandra and or Daphne with Bell and Miach speaking highly of Cassandra to Bell, it's also a little head canon of mine that whenever they find out Bell has gained another girl's affection they rate her with Bell and their list goes as follows

Bell x Cassandra-100000/10 Bell x Daphne-100000/10 Bell x Lili-10/10 Bell x Ryuu-10/10 Bell x Haruhime-11/10 Bell x Ais-20/10 Bell x Hestia-9.5/10 Bell x Freya- -500000000/10 Bell x Ashia-0/10 Bell x Eina-10/10 Bell x Tiona-10/10

I know I'm missing a few but I don't know enough about them to give them a rating in Miach and Nazza's eyes so idk let me know how you think they'd rate em

Dropped my best ever dad joke & no one was around to hear it

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 πŸ˜‚

These aren't dad jokes...

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.
