Dromaius Novaehollandiae Puns

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.

Do your worst!

Hello, everyone, welcome to my first Reddit post! I’ve just gotten myself hooked on Planet Zoo and joined to discuss the game, among other things.

Something I’ve noticed about the animal lineup in Planet Zoo is that there seems to be a lack of animals from Australia, or just the continent of Oceania in general. The only animals I could find are three exhibit species (the common death adder, eastern brown snake, and the giant burrowing cockroach) and one habitat species (the saltwater crocodile, but even then it ranges elsewhere).

Given that Australia is such a uniquely diverse continent with its fauna, it would be great to see more Australian animals in Planet Zoo. Perhaps Frontier could do an Australia DLC pack.

Here are some of my suggestions as to Australian animals that would be cool to see in Planet Zoo. Even a few of these (and their respective items, Eucalyptus trees, anyone?) would really fill out the game:

Habitat Species: Red Kangaroo - Osphranter rufus Western Grey Kangaroo - Macropus fuliginosus Lumholtz’s Tree Kangaroo - Dendrolagus lumholtzi Koala - Phascolarctos cinereus Platypus - Ornithorynchus anatinus Tasmanian Devil - Sarcophilus harrisii Southern Cassowary - Casuarius casuarius Emu - Dromaius novaehollandiae

Exhibit Species: Sugar Glider - Petaurus breviceps Bearded Dragon - Pogona vitticeps Frilled Lizard - Chlamydosaurus kingii Macleay’s Spectre Stick Insect - Extatosoma tiaratum

Thoughts are appreciated!

They were cooked in Greece.

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.

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!

Because she wanted to see the task manager.

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

But that’s comparing apples to oranges

BamBOO!

They’re on standbi

A play on words.

My daughter, Chewbecca, not so much.

"Real Emus" only consist of the mainland emu and the extinct King Island subspecies. When people try to argue that birds like kiwis are not real emu, while saying that ostriches are, I can't help not to cringe because they are just as fake emu as My Cassowary Romance (plus the pretentiousness). Real emus are FLIGHTLESS, POWERFUL and somewhat HATEFUL. Fake emus are weak, self pity and a failed attempt to direct energy and emotion into their mating call. Some examples of REAL EMUS are Dromaius novaehollandiae novaehollandiae, Dromaius novaehollandiae rothschildi, Dromaius novaehollandiae woodwardi (the only real emu bird from Northern Australia) and Dromaius novaehollandiae minor. Some examples of FAKE EMUS are the American Rhea, My Cassowary Romance and the Moa. THE EMU BELONGS TO DROMAIUS NOT TO CASUARIUS, HYPSELORNIS, STRUTHIO OR ANY OTHER MAINSTREAM GENUS

Nothing, he was gladiator.

Or would that be too forward thinking?

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.

What did 0 say to 8 ?

" Nice Belt "

So What did 3 say to 8 ?

" Hey, you two stop making out "

When I got home, they were still there.

Hindus, on the other hand, never had any beef.

I won't be doing that today!
