However, the only defector who ever met the conditions, No Kum-sok, was unaware of the offer. He was still paid $100,000 (... [r/todayilearned by u/LightYearsBeyond] en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ope…

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.

Timeline of Japanese Women's Pro Wrestling: Origins before AJW and the early years of Zenjo

1948-1950: Vaudeville Origins.

Pan and Chopin Igari's dojo in Mitaka City: other sources say they had a dojo in Tokyo. Date of the first show varies depending on accounts, with some (Pan igari himself) saying it took place in 1948, while other sources say the first women's pro wrestling match took place in 1950. This later version also specifies the location of that first show as the Nichigeki theater in Tokyo.

Pan Igari

The shows supposedly featured a total of 8 young women trained by the Igari brothers themselves, among which was their own younger sister, Sadako Igari also known as Sadako Inogari, who's recognized as the first Japanese women's pro wrestler if not the very first Japanese pro wrestler period. Per Sadako herself, the matches during this time were more along the lines of vaudeville risque shows (Pan allegedly got inspired by Moulin Rouge performances) akin to bras & panties matches than the more serious and worked pro wrestling. They also worked isolated from everyone else and possibly weren't part of any commission nor federation.

News clip featuring Sadako Igari circa April of 1950

Sadako Igari in the early 50s

1950: the Ban.

Women's pro wrestling shows are banned from Tokyo by the Metropolitan police: None of the sources really say what was the reason, but the main belief seems to be that it was due to the stigma associated to their sordid nature. I suppose there may have been other factors at play, like the Igaris not being registered (possibly not even having a license to organize shows of that nature? Who knows. This is all speculation on my part) or several copycats popping up across the city and organizing seedier shows of even more sordid nature. It could have even been plain old sexism (Rikidozan was vocal about his dislike of women partaking in Wrestling).

1953: The Igaris organize.

The Igari brothers decide to create an organization (at least nominally) for their women's wrestling shows, naming it the All Japan Women's Wrestling Ring Club (Zen nihon Joshi Resu Ringu Kurabu/ε…¨ζ—₯本ε₯³ε­γƒ¬γ‚Ήγƒͺング倢ζ₯½ιƒ¨). Among

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!

A very simple research process #stocks, microcaps

substack link: https://everydaysedar.substack.com/p/a-very-simple-research-process?r=lewow&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

My research process:

Summary:

  • Financial statements (income, balance, cash flow)
  • Fully diluted capital structure (warrants + options.)
  • Qualitative factors of company
  • Capital allocation efficiency
  • Insider ownership + incentive structure.

I don’t do Comparables analysis, only absolute value. If the entire stock market is overvalued, doesn’t make sense to do relative valuation, right?! I essentially look for cheap EV/EBIT stocks. But this doesn’t mean I don’t pay up for growth. Growth is value, in it’s early stages, as long as the growth becomes profitable and reflects in the bottom line eventually. This list is particular to microcaps but can be applied to all business. These are my steps.

  1. Financial statements- 90% fail.

I prefer cheap p/e growth stocks. Long operating history and at or near profitability. A lot of companies will tell you they are almost profitable but will take years for them to become profitable. Best to wait until they do, even if the stock price went up by then, it reduces a lot of the risk. I prefer high gross margin businesses so that when they reach enough revenues, operating leverage kicks in and every incremental revenue thereon comes down to the bottom line (net income.) This is a topic by itself. I like recurring revenue companies. Make sure there is no customer concentration risk. If there is, wager the chances that they won’t lose their customer, if they lose them to competition, or if the customer doesn’t see value in their service/product.

I like very clean balance sheets and prefer net cash on hand. However, debt is not a bad thing, and as long as their profits from operations can eventually pay down the debt, I am ok with it. However, factor the debt into your valuation (EV/EBIT.)

Cash flow. Make sure they collect on their income! Growing account receivables is a bad thing. Income can be tricked but cash is very hard to lie about. Depreciation and amortization are real costs. Don’t look at EBITDA metrics that management feeds you!

I don’t invest in pre-revenue companies unless it’s a significant net-net with a clear catalyst.

  1. Fully diluted capital structure- be careful of perpetual share issuers

You want your company to treat i

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.
