I read something about the structure of the rocks being hidden was trying to show us that things in life cannot be seen and to understand this is the path to enlightenment.
I'm unable to find the source or any information about the garden's meaning(a person told me this while I was there).
Im trying to find some incense i purchased while in Japan. It was purchased at the Ryoan-Ji temple in Kyoto. If anyone has any info on this i would appreciate the help.
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.
Hello Reddit! My significant other and I are going to Japan for the very first time and we're determined to experience as much as we can for the eighteen days we're there. I'm a really organized person, and I've spent many years thinking about what I would do, so there's a lot! I do have some major questions and any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. We're really looking forward to the food/tea (we have a significant budget for this item), the architecture, history, Shinto and traditional japanese culture/art, onsens, trains, unique entertainment/shows, and for Okinawa; the beaches and snorkeling. We're planning to be in bed by 10pm or 11pm most nights except for our night in Osaka and up by 7am or 8am everyday. My questions are:
- Is this schedule doable and have I been too ambitious? I extensively researched travel times and tried to give us a lot of time for wandering specific areas. For example, we're going to be utilizing taxis our second day in Kyoto to cut down time between locations, we're renting a car for Okinawa, and I did my very best to cluster all activities and locations so that we're never going to travel back and forth across Tokyo in one day for example. I also ended a lot of plans at 6pm or 7pm with the idea that we would be able to take more time/extend by an hour or two if necessary on those days. Please tell me if something seems unrealistic for one day, if you have any replacement suggestions, if something is not worth seeing at all, or if I've left anything out.
- Are there places in my schedule that are better seen by tour? I am fairly confident that I can navigate Japan by myself. However; if there is an especially good tour or guide in any of our locations, I would love to hear about them. My only concern is that with so much on our schedule, a tour (especially a group one) will slow down the day too much overall (our budget can also accommodate private tours). Also, if there is an experience that would enrich our time over just going to see a place or thing, I really welcome those recommendations.
- We have four trips away from Tokyo because we really want to see more of Japan outside the big three cities, but is our time better spent exploring Tokyo? There were quite a few items that I had to cut because of time and are the four day trips worth the travel and effort (Nikko, Hakone, Mt. Fuji/Lake Kawaguchiko, and Kamakura/Enoshima)? If one of the day trips isn't worth it in your opinion, do you suggest
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 ๐
It really does, I swear!

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.
There hasn't been a post all year!
You take away their little brooms
It was about a weak back.
