Today out of curiosity I attended this free seminar touting a get rich in the real estate market strategy. It was essentially a three hour sales pitch to buy tickets to their three-day seminar. Has anyone done this, and what was your experience?

Party: Whig

Home State: New York

Term: 1850-1853

Fillmore came to the presidency after the death of President Taylor who was quite a good president. In July 1850, he died from an illness he got while on a Washington Monument celebration. Many long after his death made fun of it mostly due to the fact it was very possible he got the illness from spoiled milk and bad quality cherries.

As soon as he assumed office, Fillmore was made fun of. From his rather boring personality, to his political career, to even his name. He grew up in poverty and was known as a loyal, intelligent person. The cabinet wasn't fond of him and threatened to resign: most of them did. From the sole beginning, Fillmore was looking like a repeat of John Tyler which is a good thing in my book.

Fun fact, after the presidency Fillmore fought for animal rights. He wrote letters to congressmen to fight for animal rights in 1870. Fillmore led the local meetings and used his prestige as a former president to initiate ordinances against mistreatment of local animal. He supported the first animal protection bill in New York State history, enacted in 1870.

DOMESTIC POLICY

Compromise of 1850

1850 was a roller coaster of a year. With all the territory gained from the Mexican war, politicians were debating what to do with it. Debates started during the Taylor Administration and Zach Taylor worked hard with California and Utah Territory. Fillmore came in looking like an uncompromising fella. He reversed that feeling in people by supporting and signing the newly created compromise by Henry Clay.

The Compromise of 1850 tried to appease both sides (North and South) by giving something to both sides. It included the following:

• California would be admitted as a free state
• New Mexico and Utah would be admitted as slave states
• Some Texas territory will be given to New Mexico in return for paid debts
• Slave Trade in Washington D.C. would be abolished
• A new federal bill would be passed: the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850. It would allow Southern slave owners to go in the North and find runaway slaves

These five components combined in one seems like a poor compromise but (in my opinion) it was probably one of the best possible solutions to the tensions without causing a war immediately. It's generally looked down upon so I will share why I believe it was a good solution and why Fillmore was right with supporting and passing it.

Donuts(Outro)

Notably, this track is the same as the end of Welcome To The Show, the final track of the album. Thus making the entire album loop into itself, like a donut.

The lyrics themselves read as follows:

I don't care what-ya say

J Dilla, J Dilla…

The repetition of his name in this track could be interpreted as J Dilla making it clear that he, Dilla himself, will be central to the theme of this album.

Workinonit

The longest track in the album and the one that uses the most samples, Workinonit provides for a great introduction for Donuts.

While the lyrics don’t seem to supply much meaning there’s an interesting detail that was brought to my attention through a Genius comment.

Starting at 1:34, there’s a guitar sample that when counted plays 32 times towards the end of the track which is how old J Dilla was when this album was released. Either it’s a coincidence, a stroke of genius or something in between.

Waves

This track takes a sample of 10cc’s Johnny Don’t Do It where the original lyrics are “Johnny, don’t do it” and flips that mf so it sounds like “Johnny, do it.”

J Dilla is encouraging his younger brother, John Yancey aka Illa J to pursue a career in music.

Light My Fire

Sampling the 1968 Africa cover of The Doors’s Light My Fire, J Dilla creates a party for your ears with arguably the most lit track of this entire album and you can fight me on that. Me personally, I can’t listen to this track and not want to dance.

That aside, If you really listen you can hear a James Brown’s sample of My Thang serving as a hype man to this already hype track.

The New

Something for all the Beastie Boys fans out there (where y’all at?) Dilla samples The New Style by the Beastie Boy and tinkers with the lyrics to fit the title: The New.

Add that on top of an instrumental sample from the Detroit Emeralds’ Whatcha Gonna Wear Tomorrow and it makes for a strange seemingly disjointed sound that can be hard to appreciate at first listen thus someone might be tempted to brush it off as filler.

Stop

One of the more interesting tracks on the album, Stop can be interpreted as J Dilla's reflection on his legacy and approaching death as well as advice to us, the listeners, on how we should conduct ourselves in our day to day lives.

The track begins with a sample of Jadakiss's Why. The original lyrics are: "Is dat real?" but when flipped in the track, it sounds like "Is death real?"

When facing his own mortality, Di

Go post NSFW jokes somewhere else. If I can't tell my kids this joke, then it is not a DAD JOKE.

If you feel it's appropriate to share NSFW jokes with your kids, that's on you. But a real, true dad joke should work for anyone's kid.

Mods... If you exist... Please, stop this madness. Rule #6 should simply not allow NSFW or (wtf) NSFL tags. Also, remember that MINORS browse this subreddit too? Why put that in rule #6, then allow NSFW???

Please consider changing rule #6. I love this sub, but the recent influx of NSFW tagged posts that get all the upvotes, just seem wrong when there are good solid DAD jokes being overlooked because of them.

Thank you,

A Dad.

So far nobody has given me a straight answer

Because a toothbrush works better

Had to ground him until he could conduct himself properly.

I am currently in the hospital. I had a back operation yesterday. The surgical nurse came in my room and started asking questions about my back. She asked me if I had any falls during the last year. I responded just one. It was after summer.

She laughed and said in 20 years of doing this she never was told that joke.

Indian places are naan profit, Vietnamese places are pho profit.

..... Will get a reward.

Because they work on many levels

The Bushes

..and as big as the last two put together.

Well, toucan play at that game.

I want to talk about my father and the wonderful influence he has had on my life,' he told the audience. 'He is a shining example of parenthood, and I love him more than words could ever do justice.'

At this point he seemed to struggle for words. After a pause, he looked up with a sly grin and said, 'Sorry, but it's really hard to read my father’s handwriting.'

Me : For starters, I bring a lot to the table

Argon does not react.

Windows

Martin Freeman, and Andy Serkis.

They also play roles in Lord of the Rings.

I guess that makes them the Tolkien white guys.

She said apple-lutely

I’d have $8.40

This happened a few years ago when my son was 6ish. When my kids hurt themselves and it doesn’t look serious I always do the “we might have to amputate that bruised hand” shtick with them. I’ve done it enough that they now roll their eyes.

So, my son got hit lightly in the face with a rubber ball. It wasn’t a hard hit and I could tell he was more upset by the shock of it rather than the pain. So I say “looks like we will have to amputate your nose.” To which he replies “then how will I smell?” And I say “terrible!”

It was my greatest dad joke ever. I felt like I could retire after that.

'Eye-do'

This is my first post pls don't kill me lol.

The people in the comment section is why I love this subreddit!!

Cred once again my sis wants credit lol

Keep in mind, my son is 4 years old, so everything is an original to him.

I had to work late into the evening yesterday, and he was just going to bed when I got home. I had left home for the office nearly 14 hours prior, had a long day, lots of meetings, traffic, etc.

When I walked through the door, I was exhausted, run down, and starving. My wife hugged me and asked how my day was, and I replied, "Done. It was a good day, but has got me exhausted. I just want to grab a bite and go to bed. I'm hungry."

From my son's bedroom, I hear him shout, "Hi Hungry! Nice to meet you!"

Not only did it make me laugh, but I completely forgot about how hungry and tired I was. I went to his bedroom, and we laughed together about it. It was exactly what I needed.

Edit: Thanks for all the awards, kind strangers! I'll let my son know y'all enjoyed his joke too!

I heard parents named their children lance a lot.

First post please don't kill me

Edit: i went to sleep and now my inbox is dead, thank you kind strangers for the awards!
