Clearing the Myth of origins of the Bengali Calendar: The Bengali calendar was NOT INVENTED during the reign of Mughal ruler Akbar. Bongadbo or the Bengali Era begins in 594 CE. The reigning ruler was Maha Samanta, and later Gaudeshvara, Shashanka or Shashanka Deva. opindia.com/2020/04/benga…

NONSENSE. Akbar did not create the Bengali Calendar. It is nowhere mentioned in Ain-i-Akbari or any other Mughal source. The calendar dates back to the time of King Shashanka even BEFORE Islαm was born. Thousand year old temples in Bankura use the Bangabda calendar FAKE news https://t.co/P4g3oC twitter.com/tiinexile/sta…

The Bengali calendar was already used in inscriptions of temples of Bankura district which are around a 1000 years old. How on earth could Akbar create a Calendar that was used more than 500 years BEFORE he was even BORN?

পৌষের শেষ সপ্তাহে এসে সকাল বেলা কম্বলের উষ্ণতা রেখে বিছানা ছাড়তে অনেকেই গড়িমসি করেন। কিন্তু ঘর আর গরম কাপড় যে এখনো অনেকের নাগালের বাইরে, ছবিটি যেন চোখে আঙুল দিয়ে সে কথাই বলছে। উষ্ণতা পেতে পথের কুকুরকে আগলে ধরে ঘুমিয়ে আছে এক পথশিশু। ছবিটি চট্টগ্রামের সিআরবি এলাকা থেকে তোলা।

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.

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!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

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.

I did it, I finally did it. After 4 years and 92 days I went from being a father, to a dad.

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.
