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.

I did it, I finally did it. After 4 years and 92 days I went from being a father, to a dad.

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.

Suggestions for toxin exposures infrequently encountered by US practitioners?

Working on a "culture/community-based toxicology" lecture for EM residents. We're in the US, but get visitors, recent immigrants and folks from communities with unique exposures. Hope to include less common things that we should be familiar with. Have been asking around here but wanted to ask here! If you have suggestions (especially from Yemen, Jordan, Lebanon, Iraq, Bangladesh, Nepal or really anywhere in central America...Afghanistan would be helpful since we're anticipating an increase in this population).

I'm particularly interested in any pharmaceutical or over the counter meds that US docs aren't as familiar with (or ones we're used to but for other indications). Trying to get away from the ones on every US board exam (eg trying to get beyond fugu/tetrodotoxin).

Some of the ones I'm considering:

  • Arsenic poisoning among Bangladesh immigrants due to ground water
  • Botulism type E poisoning among Alaskan indigenous populations from fermented blubber; Vitamin A poisoning among the same group from marine mammals
  • Cyanide poisoning from improperly prepared cassava root that is not treated with cyanide antidote
  • Kratom for patients with chronic pain seeking other options
  • Kambo/Giant Monkey Frog cleanses among health conscious folks
  • Khat (more common in some of our pts w East African/Middle Eastern heritage)
  • Airborne exposure/burn pits among those involved in Operation Iraqi Freedom
  • Ivermectin among COVID patients
  • Lead toxicity among internationally adopted children (and our kids, obviously)
  • Rethinking metastatic processes on the differential in pts w occupational exposures (using nail salon employees as an example)
  • Urushial contact for those harvesting cashews
  • Giant hogsweed/snake root causing milk sickness in rural communities

Any suggestions would be very appreciated! (and I'll likely need to do a more focused lecture...but right now I don't feel like I have enough of any one sub-topic)

Possibly the greatest Snap Reaction dad joke I've ever told (it even got me a POWERFUL groan and vehement FU from my wife)

Me grabbing a soda from my (what I thought was) half full 12pk...

Notices there's only 2;

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.
