Rota's conjecture Puns

According to the Wikipedia article on the problem, Per Enflo proposed a solution in 1975 and it took until 1987 until it was published! Just the sheer detail and complexity outweighing many factors including lack of available reviewers and inherent interest in the problem?

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

Buenosdillas

Pilot on me!!

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.

What did 0 say to 8 ?

" Nice Belt "

So What did 3 say to 8 ?

" Hey, you two stop making out "

I won't be doing that today!

Nothing, he was gladiator.

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.

There hasn't been a post all year!

Nothing, it just waved

A certain post has shown up on the front page of the Path of Exile subreddit, which has shown that currently, retention is lower than ever. Some people are surprised at that. So let me explain to you, clearly and directly, an exhaustive list of reasons retention is low.

• You are reading the diagram wrong. There are clearly more absolute players still playing than in Synthesis and Blight. Those were the best expansions, as everyone sees the crafts from these leagues as mandatory nowadays, so clearly, Ultimatum is going to be mandatory good stuff too.

• You are playing the wrong skills. The skills the majority of people are using got nerfed, so statistically, you are playing a nerfed skill. You would not have quit if you picked a different skill, like one of the good ones. So statistically, the majority would not have quit if the majority picked a good skill.

• You are burnt out. Path of Exile has been out for almost eight years, and playing a game for eight years causes burnout of a severe degree. Statistically, that means that the majority of the playerbase is suffering from burnout. It has nothing to do with Ultimatum League itself.

• Your PC isn't good enough. Graphics cards and most computer hardware is hard to come by these days, and unless you pay a scalper, you won't get an upgrade. Most cannot afford paying more for a graphics card or a processor or more ram, and supply is low due to limited manufacturing, which means, the majority of people do not have a PC that is good enough.

• You are relying on trade too much. Solo Self Found has glowing reviews from players that say it feels liberating and makes the game more fun, but statistically, at least 10% of the playerbase is trading, and therefore not playing SSF. They wouldn't quit if they hadn't relied on such a boring thing as trade.

• You rely on crafting too much. Checking Site viewership via Similarweb puts the pageviews for the Path of Exile website at 30 Million. Then, poedb has 5 million, and craftofexile has another 1 million. This means that 20% of the players are obsessed with crafting. Crafting, as many people already said, is gambling, and isn't fun. So statistically, 20% of players are not having fun, and thus quit.

• You want too much free stuff. Now that Harvest ist gone again - Item Editor at large - players will not like to play as much. But how m

So that I could frequently say, "I am going to walk 5 miles now."
