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.
Dale Earnhardt Inc. died a sad, and sudden death after the 2008 Cup Season. They were one of multiple teams that were greatly affected by the 2008 financial crisis, and merged with Chip Gannasi and Felix Sabates after the 2008 season, as they were another organization that was greatly effected by the Great Recession.
While the team continued as Earnhardt-Ganassi Racing through the 2013 season, co-owner Teresa Earnhardt was absent through the teams five wins, including Jamie McMurray's 2010 Daytona 500 triumph.
Despite the teams sudden demise, DEI is still fondly remembered for their run of sheer restrictor plate dominance from the 2001 Daytona 500, through the 2004 Daytona 500.
During this span of 13 races, the duo of Michael Waltrip and Dale Earnhardt Jr. combined to win 10 times at Daytona and Talladega. Only Bobby Hamilton at Talladega in 2001, Ward Burton in the 2002 Daytona 500, and Greg Biffle in the 2003 Pepsi 400 broke up the DEI monopoly.
Even Hamilton's win has somewhat of an asterisk, as Hamilton drove for Andy Petree Racing, who was a part of the RAD Alliance, meaning that he was sharing info with the DEI cars.
After Dale Earnhardt Jr. won the Daytona 500 in 2004, three years after the loss of his father, DEI would only win once more on the Superspeedways, and that would come later in 2004.
Midway through the 2004 season a new Superspeedway powerhouse team emerged, and it was Hendrick Motorsports.
The tide would turn in the 2004 Aaron's 499.
Following a Tony Stewart spin with 12 laps to go, Dale Jr. and Jeff Gordon were set to battle for the win over a nine lap sprint to the finish.
In turn four, with only four laps to go, Gordon edged ahead of Jr. At the same time Gordon's teammate Brian Vickers spun and lightly collected Ricky Rudd creating another caution.
NASCAR elected not to restart the race, running the final three laps under caution and giving Gordon the win, his first of the 2004 season, and first Superspeedway win since winning the same race in 2000.
While NASCAR fans were vocal with their disapproval, peppering Gordon's car with trash after the race, DEI looked to return to rebound at the 2004 Pepsi 400.
In a race where nearly half the field were sponsored by Coca-Cola's new C2 drink, Gordon's Pepsi sponsored car led the most laps, and won again, this time winning his first race at Daytona since 1999. Gordon's teammate Jimmie Johnson came second, with Dale Jr. finishing third.
While Jr. won the next Superspe

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
Don't you know a good pun is its own reword?
Two muffins are in an oven, one muffin looks at the other and says "is it just me, or is it hot in here?"
Then the other muffin says "AHH, TALKING MUFFIN!!!"
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.
But that’s comparing apples to oranges
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
They’re on standbi
A play on words.
My daughter, Chewbecca, not so much.
Pilot on me!!
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.
And boy are my arms legs.
