I'm a big fan of old French literature and I found theres nothing on the anonymously-written Franco-Venetian poem " La Prise de Pampelune " or "The Taking of Pampelune". Not even a basic summary of what the plot is. Any clue as to why this is? How do we know the exact number of lines it has if we don't know the story? Can anyone tell me what the story is about because I would really like to know. Particularly what Estouls did within it as I particularly favor his character growing up with his puppet plays and poems. The only thing I could find on it are these 3 articles. After that nothing.
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.

##The League of Rimini
The League of Rimini formed in opposition to the rise of Cesare Borgia. The son of the Pope was intent on bringing the robber barons of Romagna to heel - and they intended to stop him. Raising forces in their capitals, they intended to meet in Rimini.
Pandolfo IV Malatesta, the Lord of Rimini, raised many cavalrymen, and scoured the land looking for Cesare's host. He found them, gathering in Cesena, in numbers he did not anticipate - in numbers none of the Rimini Leaguers could have anticipated.
Even worse, he received word that the Pope had recently excommunicated him, as well as the Judges of Perugia, and the Duke of Urbino. The wounds on his back flared with indignation. He stood in Rimini, ready to be joined by his comrades in arms in ousting the Borgias from Romagna.
#March 1500
Malatesta, at it turned out, would need to stand alone - at least for a little bit. The Duke of Urbino, Guidobaldo da Montefeltro, was gathering an army from Perugia and Siena, as well as his own territory. Together, they would march to relieve Rimini. All Pandolfo had to do was defend the city.
Cesare approached the city of Rimini, and found a considerable fortification facing him. Thick walls abutted against the Marecchia, with a bastion on the northern end, provided a formidable obstacle. In addition, the Marecchia runs rapid and vigorously in the spring, when the rains bring a considerable amount of water to its banks. If Cesare wanted to lay siege to the town, he would have to find another crossing. Probing with cavalry along the Marecchia, Cesare did manage to find a bridge strong enough to carry troops across.
Crossing the Marecchia, Cesare found that his efforts were hampered by the cavalry of Malatesta. Volleys of light crossbows peppered the Borgian cavalry as they secured the crossing. Severely outnumbered, however, Rimini's cavalry soon retired to the safety of the city walls. Borgia surrounded the city, and began to bombard it.
Around this time, the Mantuan condottieri arrived. Taking up positions south of the Marecchia, they began to scour the countryside for loot and plunder while they waited for Rimini to surrender.
As it turned out,

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
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 😂

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.
When I got home, they were still there.

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.
