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 π
It really does, I swear!
HOW TECHNO CULTURE WAS DEVELOPING IN RUSSIA
By 1991 techno raves had reached Russia. Just a week before the collapse of the USSR there was a big party called the Gagarin Party. It was so significant for the whole techno community that at first it was looked after by its followers.
It was held according to all traditions in a deserted pavilion βKosmosβ on VDNKh. The building had no heating, no cloakroom, no show-room, but there was something more - 3,000 people and a DJ playing techno.
WHAT NOW?
For a long time, the hallmark of rave parties in Moscow was club ARMA17. But after a tragic fire in the permanent building, the party stopped being limited to one place and started migrating all over the country. Parties are held everywhere: from the capital to the south of the country, as well as abroad: in Berlin, New York, Bucharest, Barcelona, Rome.
RUSSIAN TECHNO RAVES
The biggest and most popular techno-festivals and communities in Russia include: Zulu Warrior, Oberton, Triptych, Boiler Room, Ona techno party, GAMMA, Signal and others.
Thanks to promotional groups including GOST Sound, Popoff Kitchen, System 108, Monasterio, and large events such as Signal in Nikola-Lenivets Art Park, Russian techno fans can listen to Russian and foreign artists live.
HOW DO OTHERS FEEL ABOUT IT?
Of course, the older generation is suspicious of such gatherings, and with good reason.
Today, just like in the β90s, techno-parties symbolize protest and a way to forget everything, at least for one night. This is encouraged by the fact that in the last few years, rave clubs have often been declared βnon-grataβ establishments.
AND THE STATE?
Whether techno should be recognized as a musical genre in Russia at the state level?
According to Russian lawyers, such a change at the state level makes no sense and now we will explain why:
DJs in Russia can simultaneously refer to both aut

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.
