Asking for a friend. His FB post:
"I need help. Actually, I don't need it personally but I'm trying to see if the power of Facebook will help make an old woman's dream come true. In my bartending days I was able to befriend a bunch of wonderful people. One of those people was a wonderful and vibrant women named Jornetta. I do not know her age but I will tell you any women that walks into my bar using a walker, sits down at the bar, can talk for hours on end, and still enjoys having a couple drinks at her age.....she's got my admiration. On one particular afternoon I has the pleasure of getting to know her better because they were doing some repairs behind my bar and I had no place to stand. I sat down next to her and she began to tell me her life story. She use to run the kitchen in a country club out in Ohio and worked tirelessly, as most food service managers do, so she could provide for her family. The food service business was in her blood. We also got to talking about music. Apparently her husband, who had died well over 30 years ago, was a fantastic piano player. In fact, he use to play for the local radio stations near their home in Ohio. She told me she still had a bunch of his recordings sitting in a box but she said she had no way to listen to them since she didn't have a player to play them in. The tapes are Fidelipac tapes that were made to be played in machines that only radio stations had. They were used mostly for playing commercials. (Each tape is usually no more than 4 minutes long). I told her she should bring me some tapes and I would see what I could do. So, I need some help. Help me made this sweet old ladies dream come true and help me let her hear her husband play piano for the first time in over 30+ years. I've found a place in Seattle that's website says it can transfer the tapes but I am a bit leary to send these tapes to a company that far away. Does anybody know or have access to a radio station nearby that would be able to do this? Anybody know somebody that owns one of these machines? My last ditch effort is to contact WGN radio and see if they still have one of these machines. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you all for reading this!"
Do your worst!
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!
They’re on standbi
Pilot on me!!
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.

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.

Me grabbing a soda from my (what I thought was) half full 12pk...
Notices there's only 2;
Me: "Awe man... This is a damn bird box!" Her: "What the hell does that mean?!" Me: (Pulls both cans out & shows them to her) "It's only got Toucans."
I'm not ashamed to admit the look on her face was glorious.
I was just sitting there doing nothing.
“BOOM”?!
