I have six Finnish Post aerograms from the late 1990s, and I'm assuming that the prepaid postage is still valid (if not, oh well).
An aerogram is a sheet of writing paper that can be folded into an envelope.
I've never gotten around to sending them to my penpals and probably never will. There just isn't a lot of space for writing, and including additional sheets is not allowed.
If you'd like a short letter on an aerogram, then this offer is for you. The design of the aerograms is pretty nice, and I can decorate with stickers.
Please include a writing prompt (or prefererably two or three).
I might not have the time to write them right away, but I'll get to it eventually.
Currently I can send to the following countries:
Most European countries.
Rest of the world: Argentina, Brazil, Canada, China, Egypt, Hong Kong, India, Israel, Japan, Kyrgyztan, Mexico, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Tajikistan, Thailand, Turkmenistan, the United States and Vietnam.
"When I came here 38 years ago, we used to correspond because telephone was very expensive. My mother used to write a letter on 2 sides of an aerogram and on the 3rd side, there would be a recipe or 2. I have still got them. I asked my sister (who is no longer with us) how she made things. I have her letters, which are very special. I am really grateful [to Diaspo] that I can bring these [family recipes] back"
Came across this super interesting article about these the preservation of family recipes: https://www.yippieonline.com/blog/diaspo
Any other similar stories of paper recipes being held onto?
Im an engineer by training and love science, tech and intellectual discourse. Miss the days of non instant communication and the moment of euphoria when you open your mail box to find non junk, non bill letters with handwritten addresses. Hope to find someone who shares a similar passion and look forward to corresponding with you
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.
Had a closet clean out this week, feel free to message me with any questions ❤️

... keep reading on reddit ➡Alot of great jokes get posted here! However just because you have a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke.
THIS IS NOT ABOUT NSFW, THIS IS ABOUT LONG JOKES, BLONDE JOKES, SEXUAL JOKES, KNOCK KNOCK JOKES, POLITICAL JOKES, ETC BEING POSTED IN A DAD JOKE SUB
Try telling these sexual jokes that get posted here, to your kid and see how your spouse likes it.. if that goes well, Try telling one of your friends kid about your sex life being like Coca cola, first it was normal, than light and now zero , and see if the parents are OK with you telling their kid the "dad joke"
I'm not even referencing the NSFW, I'm saying Dad jokes are corny, and sometimes painful, not sexual
So check out r/jokes for all types of jokes
r/unclejokes for dirty jokes
r/3amjokes for real weird and alot of OC
r/cleandadjokes If your really sick of seeing not dad jokes in r/dadjokes

Do your worst!
How the hell am I suppose to know when it’s raining in Sweden?
Ants don’t even have the concept fathers, let alone a good dad joke. Keep r/ants out of my r/dadjokes.
But no, seriously. I understand rule 7 is great to have intelligent discussion, but sometimes it feels like 1 in 10 posts here is someone getting upset about the jokes on this sub. Let the mods deal with it, they regulate the sub.

All gaijin gathering conversations inevitably gravitated back to everyone’s satisfaction and contentment with their lives in Japan.

They were cooked in Greece.
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
Now that I listen to albums, I hardly ever leave the house.
Two muffins are in an oven, one muffin looks at the other and says "is it just me, or is it hot in here?"
Then the other muffin says "AHH, TALKING MUFFIN!!!"
Don't you know a good pun is its own reword?
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!

Heard they've been doing some shady business.
but then I remembered it was ground this morning.
Edit: Thank you guys for the awards, they're much nicer than the cardboard sleeve I've been using and reassures me that my jokes aren't stale
Edit 2: I have already been made aware that Men In Black 3 has told a version of this joke before. If the joke is not new to you, please enjoy any of the single origin puns in the comments
They’re on standbi
A play on words.
