SERIOUS: This subreddit needs to understand what a "dad joke" really means.

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.

A comprehensive analysis of mythological references (mainly from Germanic/Norse and Græco-Roman mythologies) and real world historical paralles and inspirations in Attack on Titan. Coupled with an in-depth breakdown of how I think it will end, in my opinion. (VERY LONG READ) [PART 2-A]

PART 2: THE LONG AND TUMULTUOUS SHARED HISTORY OF ROMANCE AND GERMANIC NATIONS

SUMMARY OF PART 1, WHICH YOU CAN FIND HERE: https://www.reddit.com/r/titanfolk/comments/k5hhpq/a_comprehensive_analysis_of_mythological/

In the first part of this post, I talked about how the setting for the majority of the story of Attack on Titan, Paradis Island, is clearly based on Germany, especially during the historical period of its national unification, that is, during the 19th century. Military uniforms, architecture derived from its historical heritage, soundtrack which includes songs sung in German and tracks with German names, German names of the characters (I can expand on that if you want), Northern European geographic landscapes; a form of government based on that of the German Empire, even when the Survey Corps overthrow the Mitras monarchy and establish a de facto military dictatorship; how the three branches of the military wage war, and a series of other minor things, all cement this theory.

I then digressed by explaining how the potrayal of Eldia and Marley in their prehistoric state/form drew evident inspiration by how popular culture imagines the early stages of the Roman Empire and its contemporary Germanic tribes. I further expanded on what we know thus far of Eldian history,

Dropped my best ever dad joke & no one was around to hear it

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!

These aren't dad jokes...

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.

Salvete - This week's language of the week: Latin!

Latin (Latin: lingua latΔ«na, IPA: [ˈlΙͺΕ‹Ι‘Κ·a laˈtiːna]) is a classical language belonging to the Italic branch of the Indo-European languages. The Latin alphabet is derived from the Etruscan and Greek alphabets and ultimately from the Phoenician alphabet.

History

Latin was the language of small Indo-European populations living in Latium, a region of the central Italic Peninsula, which by an accident of history became the founders of the largest empire the Ancient World ever saw. The spread of their tongue accompanied their territorial expansion.

With the fall of the Roman Empire, Latin ceased, eventually, to be spoken but was the seed of the Romance languages, of which Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, French and Romanian came to be the national languages of five central and south European countries. Throughout the Middle Ages, and until recently, Latin remained the language of literature and scholarship in the West, as well as the liturgical language of the Roman Catholic Church.

Periods:

  • Early Latin (600-200 BCE). Known mainly by inscriptions.

  • Classical Latin (200 BCE-200 CE). Attested by abundant literature and a wealth of inscriptions.

  • Post-Classical Latin (200-400 CE). The more artificial literary language of post-classical authors.

  • Late Latin (400-600 CE). It was the administrative and literary language of Late Antiquity in the Roman Empire and its successor states in Western Europe.

  • Medieval Latin (600-1300 CE). Latin ceased to be a spoken language but it was employed for literature, science and administration as well as by the Roman Catholic Church for its liturgy.

  • Renaissance Latin and Neo-Latin (1300 till now). During the Renaissance, the Humanist movement purged Medieval Latin of some phonological, orthographical and lexical changes. A similar version of this reformulated language continued to be used after the Renaissance for scientific and literary purposes (usually called Neo-Latin).

Latin influence in English has been significant at all stages of its insular development. In the medieval period, much borrowing from Latin occurred through ecclesiastical usage established by Saint Augustine of Canterbury in the sixth century, or indirectly after the Norman Conquest through the Anglo-Norman language. From the 16th to the 18th centuries, English writers cobbled together huge numbers of new words from Latin and Greek words. These were dubbed "inkhorn terms", as if they had spilled from a pot of ink. Many of these words were u
