Just wondering if anyone has the same experience me. Basically, I was never "taught" my native language - Hiligaynon. I'm not sure if there's even a course for it. Everything I know, I know through experience. I spoke in it all the time up until high school. I would exchange short notes and text messages in shorthand with fellow speakers and that's the most writing/reading I've encountered in my language.
For every other language I know and use, I was taught at school and had loads of resources to learn and practice with except actual people who are fluent in the language (not counting the teachers). English had the most use, so I was better at it first. Then Filipino when I moved to the capital.
Now I'm wondering if there's a course for my language (I'll be looking it up) and if it would be useful to actually know the formal grammar, spelling, etc...
I'm actually kinda scared of losing it since it's no longer the default language used at home and I have little hope that my son will learn it from me.
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.
Do your worst!
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 😂
It really does, I swear!
The /r/rupaulsdragrace mod team and is looking to expand! In the new year we'll be hosting discussions for Drag Race Season 14, Drag Race Philippines, Drag Den, Drag Race France, and many many more forthcoming seasons, and we need YOU to join us to help out!
We are especially interested in finding users who:
-
Have experience with graphic design. With so many new seasons of so many versions of drag race happening, our team is struggling to keep up with the demand of keeping our sub designs updated to current seasons without overworking our graphic designers. If you know a thing or two about designing assets in photoshop, it would GREATLY improve your chances of being taken on!
-
Live in the Philippines or speak Tagalog, Cebuano, Ilocano, Hiligaynon, or any other language you think will be useful for moderating discussions in /r/DragRacePhilippines
-
Live in a European time zone, especially if you live specifically in the UK or France or speak French, as we need mods for /r/rpdr_UK and /r/DragRaceFrance
-
Identify as a person of color, regardless of whether you fit any of the other criteria we are looking for. In the past we have avoided a call specifically looking for POC mods because the BIPOC members of our mod team had concerns about tokenizing and didn't want to pressure new members of the team to divulge any personal information they weren't comfortable sharing, but the sentiment has changed. And given that the last few rounds of mod applications focused on hiring mods for Drag Race Canada, Drag Race España, Drag Race Holland, Drag Race Italy, and Drag Race UK, we feel it's time to ask for POC applicants in order to maintain a racially diverse team.
We are endeavoring to always expand and increase the diversity of our mod team to ensure the difficult discussions raised by the show are moderated by people who understand the full cultural context in which these discussions are being held.
Note: if you've applied before and are still interested, please apply again!

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.

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.

Edit: My most popular post on Reddit! 😀 Thank you for the awards.
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.
