EDIT: I am now closing applications and will make a decision in the next day or so. Thank you to everybody who applied - the general enthusiasm and support is wonderful to see.

Hey everybody,
The /r/dadjokes community is now over 85,000 subscribers strong. That's pretty great. Pretty super great.
Thus far, over the entire existence of this sub, I have been the only mod. Quietly watching, taking your feedback, removing a post here, approving another there - doing my best not to interfere too much. I'm going to be honest, it hasn't been that hard.
You lot are generally a pretty nice bunch, give or take a few of the more vocal lunatics. There isn't usually a lot of work to be done, or issues that need resolving.
That said, I'm not awake all the time. I can't lurk on Reddit all the time. I don't have all-seeing eyes.
So it's about time I gave another pair of eyes moderator status and entrusted those eyes with a duty of care.
Let's get down to the chase; here's what I'm looking for in an additional mod:
- You live in a very different timezone to Syd, AU - GMT+10
- You have a good sense of humour
- You're not in this purely to grow your 'net rep
- You're interested in being fair, and maintaining fairness
- You maintain civility in yourself and your responses at all times
- You have a bit of time every day to go through reports, spam, and post comments
- You understand that your moderatorship will initially be a trial, and can be revoked at any time if you aren't being magical and rad
- Some general CSS/subreddit formatting knowledge wouldn't go astray, but is not required
Here's what I am not looking for:
- Strong, cemented opinions about what constitutes a dad joke and what doesn't - everybody's dad and humour is different
- An overzealous post remover - I am not looking for an enforcer, the title moderator implies moderation
- A(nother) dictator - it is my preference that this subreddit be gently guided, and not forcibly ruled, we let the community find itself and we listen to what they say
If you wish to apply for the title and duty of being a moderator to /r/dadjokes, simply state your case (why you should be selected, what benefits or experience you bring, etc) in a comment reply to this thread. I will then get in touch with the most worthy seeming applicants. Upvotes and downvites will not be taken int
... keep reading on reddit ➡That’s why they call me Mr. Fahrenheit.
If you’re trying to say a word that you’ve only ever seen in print, you’re speaking hyphonetically.

Apparently they make you look hard
"Prose Before Hose"
Dad: "The one about the giant and the magic beans?"
Mom: "Yes."
Dad: "Whats wrong with 'Jackin the Beanstalk'?
Mom:"......."
Me: Daddy I’m thirsty!
My dad: Hi thirsty I’m Fridy lets go Saturdy and get a Sundy.
I’m sure it’s not original but it makes me laugh to think of how I was making my dad insane asking for a DRIIINNNKKK and he would always come back with this.
I’d say “Wow that’s coincidental.”
If you ask me, that was pretty telepathetic of him.
“Yea, it says stop” “No it doesn’t! Signs don’t speak!”
Well that is total bs, everyone else had clothes on too.
Me to my friend: I wonder if any Jewish kids found it unkampfortable to read?
It took her a few seconds before she groaned like hell.
Looks like there will be hell toupée
It was a real page-turner.
It was brailleant!
I keep reading out jokes to my girlfriend as I find them on reddit, so she is too prepared for stupid jokes. I just tried this one, and it definitely didn't work... I should have waited. I only had one shot..
"Hey, why does this house smell like updog?"
"Get off reddit"
He said "of course it's hard, he was blind you know!"
I stared dead at them, pointed, and said "This means War!"
I told him it was complex.
He told me I broke my humerus bone.
I thought to myself, “I can’t turn that down!"
I thought, "I can't turn that down"
