John Kirkpatrick Puns

Hello- I’m looking to find anyone with any stories about war hero John Kirkpatrick, as well as anything about South tyneside smuggling.

South Shields museum is creating a sensory project for kids, and I’m writing an article for my about their attempts to gather up the info for these two areas.

Feel free to leave your comments and stories below.

The message is in the title - awarded to JK in the U.K. New Years Honours.

Possibly of most interest to U.K. subscribers, but jolly good news, all the same!

I have always wanted to read the divine comedy but thiers alot of translations to choose from and I was wondering out of these two is better choice?

I was curious with the Rams strategy to see how many times in recent history it worked out trading a 1st round pick for a player. I reviewed what teams got out of the trade and included moves that teams made with the picks they got traded. To try and paint a picture of whether this is an effective strategy or not in the draft. Here is the recent history below starting with the Jay Cutler Trade.

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.

Sorry about the flair if it is incorrect, I just needed to put something.

Films exploring loss of faith/struggling with faith/deconstruction:

- First Reformed - Schrader - 2018

- Winter Light - Ingmar Bergman - 1963

- Diary of a Country Priest - Bresson - 1951

- Silence - Martin Scorsese - 2016

- Eyes Wide Open - Haim Tabakman - 2010

- Saved - Brian Dannelly - 2004-

Ordet - Dreyer - 1955

Angels Egg - Mamoru Oshii - 1985

Small Foot - Karey Kirkpatrick, Jason Reisig - 2018 (may also fit under criticism of cults, but this is definitely about seeking truth and rationality. Doesn't explicitly talk about Christianity or any religion, but those uh, stone tablet of truths seem familiar)

Films that are critical of religion/critical of its involvement in the world (if vague, i'll leave an explanation):

- The Master - Paul Thomas Anderson - 2012 (deals with scientology, but on a meta level, Joaquin Phoenix reportedly engaged with this film due to his time growing up in a Christian cult)

- O' Brother Where Art Thou - Joel Cohen - 2000 (displays the toxic nature religion ingrained on the american south, as well as topics of racism, poverty, politics, and the changing times. the religious themes are more ambivalent, but they directly address skepticism through the character Everett )

- The Seventh Seal - Ingmar Bergman - 1957

- There Will Be Blood - Paul Thomas Anderson - 2007

- Carrie - Brian De Palma - 1976

- The Boys of St. Vincent - John N Smith - 1992

- Monty Pythons The Life of Brian and The Meaning of Life - 1979 and 1983 respectively

- Haxan - Benjamin Christensen - 1922

- Rosemary's Baby - Polanski (who's a pedophile, fuck him, but this film is a classic and is relevant)

- 1968- Doubt - John Shanley - 2008

- The Last Temptation of Christ - Martin Scorsese - 1988 (I think this is a major crossover one. While it was highly criticized in the 80s, there are also populations of Christians that see its merits for what it is. So while I think this one more belongs in "religious themed" films, it does have a criticism when it comes to the divinity of christ)

- Dogma - Kevin Smith - 1999

- The Witch - Robert Eggers - 2019

- Martha Marcy May Marlene - Sean Durkin - 2011

- A Serious Man - Coen Bros. - 2009 (a black comedy that deals with the uncertainty of life, the emotions of growing up Jewish, and it asks questions about why we suffer, and why decent people seem to take the brunt of it if god is so good)

- Spot

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!
