On the other thread, someone asked me to explain what Perth had to offer. I started typing and just couldn't stop. This isn't a complete list and I would even go so far as to say there are things on there that are no longer accurate (do they still do paragliding in the Wheatbelt? They used to -- but I'm getting old). My question to you is; what am I missing? What have I forgotten? What else can we use to sell Perth -- because for one of our own to say "there's nothing TO DO in Perth" quite frankly, is fucking bullshit!
>Boola Bardip, our state museum in the centre of Perth (ie public transport could not be easier) is currently free entry. OK, I've probably started with one of the most boring example for some people, but a lot of people rave about it; continuing on the culture theme though, we have a wide variety of arts & cultural festivals such as Perth International Arts festival, Fringeworld, Perth Writer's festival, Disrupted festival of ideas & Perth Jazz festival just to name a few.
>Many of Perth's actives are very much driven by the climate; across all the suburbs of Perth, you will find everything from golf to rugby to surfing, yachting, pistol & rifle / skeet shooting (an indoor one about 15mins from Perth city centre), your obvious ball sports (netball, basketball, tennis, footy), we have volunteer organisations that rehabilitate wildlife if that's your thing. Every single town council and organisation looking to grow is putting free events on right now; City of Bayswater holds a free concern every 3 months or so in a local park of a variety of styles. The local music scene here in Perth is quite amazing with a greater depth to it than many people imagine. Pretty much every suburb has their own buy/sell/trade, from the Stock Yards in Mundijong to the the Rotary Club markets, well, in every other shopping centre carpark from 6am on a Sunday.
>We have semi-regular beer, wine, chilli, chicken, whatever festivals, we have the Perth Night Markets & the Noodle Markets starting up again soon (weather has obviously been an issue of late, having had our wettest winter since like, the 80's)
>We have the usual localities that you'll find in any city; William St in Northbridge is the gateway to Chinatown, Victoria Park has a Cafe strip that goes for kilometres of different cuisines from Nepalese to Italian, up in Mirrabooka you'll get a lot of South African restaurants, as well as your local community restaurants, your typi
... keep reading on reddit ➡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
Pilot on me!!
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.
When I got home, they were still there.

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.
