A list of puns related to "Cornerstone Festival"
I never had a chance to go to Cornerstone Festival before it shut down, but I'm sure many of you went! So tell me stories, and we can relive the glory days together :)
This list consists of acts that are unlikely for varying reason. If you disagree with the placement of an act on this list as opposed to the primary list, please state so below and acts will be moved as appropriate.
The following have appeared at OSLs once before but have not released new material (not counting singles) since their previous appearance (list in parenthesis) and are therefore less likely to appear in 2022 (To date only Beck and Vance Joy have returned WITHOUT new material, making the following acts much less likely):
So, this is one of the items I have been working on over the last few weeks. It probably wont make it by the end of the year, but its worth a try! And if not, Its something nice ready for next year ;)

So, I follow Scott Galloway email newsletter. The last email regarding web3 is interesting. Basically he is quite negative now regarding all the web3/ DAO stuff, and his reasoning is quite sound. As I am a noob in the field, I post the whole newsletter here, so we can discuss what is true and not true in the verse world
Web3 Share Facebook Share Twitter Share LinkedIn I didnβt anticipate how much Iβd appreciate a @Jack of fewer trades. Key to progress is class traitors: Generals warning of a military-industrial complex, product managers who narc on mendacious management, and tech leaders who violate the Silicon Valley code of the white guy β never criticize each other or your noble missions to save the world. Jack Dorsey has drawn his sword and taken aim at colleagues attempting to centralize control and gain from the promise of decentralization. Specifically, "web3."
What is web3? Itβs a hazy/vague term describing a crypto-powered internet, and a font of yogababble. Its promoters would say something akin to:
Web3 is a decentralized version of the internet where platforms and apps are built and owned by users. Unlike web2 (the current web), which is dominated by centralized platforms such as Google, Apple, and Facebook, web3 will use blockchain, crypto, and NFTs to transfer power back to the internet community.
Sounds good. Most of us buy the down-with-Facebook-and-Google narrative. Cut out the middleman, and we all win β especially the little guys. The dispersion of theaters, doctors offices, and bank branches to our homes, smart speakers, and phones offers enormous potential to provide elemental services with reduced friction. Smart contracts could, among other things, reduce agency costs and iron systemic biases out of the process. Thatβs the promise of decentralization. But does the music match the words?
Reality Bites
The advertised decentralization of power out of the hands of a few has, in fact, been a re-centralization of power into the hands of fewer. The top 9% of accounts hold 80% of the $41B market value of NFTs on the Ethereum blockchain. The practice of "whitelisting" keeps the bulk of NFT profits within a tight circle of insiders. Bitcoin is even more centralized: The top 2% of accounts own 95% of the $800 billion supply of Bitcoin, and 0.1% of Bitcoin miners are responsible for half of all mining output. If it were a country, Bitcoin would have the greatest inequality in the world.
This is not the temporary gestalt of a recently

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.

Morning rays tickled her eyelids as they seeped through the gaps in the door, waking her up. Her surroundings were still lit dimly, filled with the scent of several creatures and the smell of pasture. The blanketγ»γ»γ»γ»γ» probably the work of her adoptive brother, was hardly placed upon her to keep her body away from the cold. Noticing the blanket, she remembered it was a stable. She had been so concerned with the condition of the newborn foal that she stayed with it the entire night, until morning, because of the condition it was in last night.

She says it cheerfully while brushing the thick fur coat of her father's beloved horse, Eto.
Her foster father, Ector, was the toughest and most stubborn knight she had ever known. He never gained much honor on the battlefield, and he never once sought fame, so people never gossiped about him, but when it came to that girl he was Ector, the very ideal of knighthood. Although he retired from the first line because of the passage of time besting all men, his sword skills did not deteriorate.

Terrific, terrific stuff
That's us well and truly into it then...the festive sessions now officially in the memory banks, for referral as and when. The eagle eyed amongst yous, will have noticed the intoxication of Dad via last weeks title, 'DWT 84 (1st December 2022)' - ones mind wasnae fully engaged it appears haha - ah no. As such - maybes no huge surprise the first of the New Year was a flop...Dad wasnae flying at a safe height. You forget yourself when in the throes of celebration - no excuse sure - but to be fair, a bitty of a one off potentially this year; cannae no go balls out π. Mingling like a hero, Dad was able to take shit to the next level on several fronts. The resultant gushing and compliment offerings, fair had Dad in a humble zone by fuck - they dinnae fuck about with well-wishing over here sure. It's been an adjustment of sorts - I've had a kind word or two whispered in the ear of course, you cannae be a cunt like me, without a few telling you you're doing a terrific job - but it's on a whole higher plain here in the United America. Several reasons apparent of course - but it always strikes me just how much more potent the positivity is, when cunts have a chance to display it. Sometimes, even when there isnae haha. A dose of harsh reality potentially on the horizon at some stage maybes - it's a rarity where every citizen is a terrific bastard, ready to impart their love of course - but I've enough life experience gathered to know, that you cannae just rest on some laurels and assume it's terrific by default. Things kicking off again there on the travel front come mid-January; new areas to explore, new cunts to meet. There's no manys a place Dad cannae inject his magnetism if enough time is afforded π.
It's been right back to the fucking grindstone of course; much work to do with current project sure. And here - the allergies were put to the fucking test by fuck...up into the upper reaches I ventured, for a lengthy session of attic clearance. A dusty bastard it was...cobwebs a fucking plenty - winter a fine time to undertake such a task, given the hibernation of the dirty wee bastards. Ach here - I'm no anti-spider or owt...just, you know - I'm a smidge scared of the hairy cunts. Scotland is no real hassle - spiders are a bunch of wee lightweight arseholes compared to the fucking behemoths out here; Wolf Spiders a local celebrity apparently - fuck THAT. As such, g

They were cooked in Greece.
Don't you know a good pun is its own reword?
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!!!"
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 π
It really does, I swear!
Because she wanted to see the task manager.
But thatβs comparing apples to oranges
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
BamBOO!

And boy are my arms legs.
A play on words.
My daughter, Chewbecca, not so much.
