Lee Mavers Puns

Kurt Cobain and Jimi Hendrix died young so we'll never know what great albums and songs could have come from them. Lee Mavers is a more tragic story than artists who have died young. Lee Mavers had the potential to be all time great songwriter but because of his perfectionism or OCD or whatever you want to call it he got in his own way and prevented his music from being released, so the world is left with one album and some demo tapes. To me the thought of someone getting in their own way and preventing themselves from leaving a legacy is more tragic than someone dying young. There is a certain mysticism and reverence for artists like Kurt Cobain and Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison and Amy Winehouse but that same feeling doesn’t exist for someone like Lee Mavers. As Neil Young famously said "It's better to burn out than fade away." All the artists I mentioned went out at the top of their game but Lee Mavers has faded more and more into irrelevancy as the years have gone on. Lee Mavers truly is his own worst enemy and is the epitome of wasted talent and that is truly tragic.

I believe if it was not for Lee Mavers, the Britpop induced music genre would cease to have existed. Using musical styles and elements such as Skiffle, early Beatles (Quarrymen) and music such as Merseybeat I credit him for creating the origin of this early neo-Skiffle (Britpop) sound.

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.

Alot of great jokes get posted here! However just because you have a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke.

THIS IS NOT ABOUT NSFW, THIS IS ABOUT LONG JOKES, BLONDE JOKES, SEXUAL JOKES, KNOCK KNOCK JOKES, POLITICAL JOKES, ETC BEING POSTED IN A DAD JOKE SUB

Try telling these sexual jokes that get posted here, to your kid and see how your spouse likes it.. if that goes well, Try telling one of your friends kid about your sex life being like Coca cola, first it was normal, than light and now zero , and see if the parents are OK with you telling their kid the "dad joke"

I'm not even referencing the NSFW, I'm saying Dad jokes are corny, and sometimes painful, not sexual

So check out r/jokes for all types of jokes

r/unclejokes for dirty jokes

r/3amjokes for real weird and alot of OC

r/cleandadjokes If your really sick of seeing not dad jokes in r/dadjokes

Punchline !

Edit: this is not a post about NSFW , This is about jokes, knock knock jokes, blonde jokes, political jokes etc being posted in a dad joke sub

Edit 2: don't touch the thermostat

This is based off of birthplace listed on the official website rosters, so don't shoot if some of these look odd. I may be a Fox, but i don't make the news, I just report it.

Do your worst!

How the hell am I suppose to know when it’s raining in Sweden?

Mathematical puns makes me number

Ants don’t even have the concept fathers, let alone a good dad joke. Keep r/ants out of my r/dadjokes.

But no, seriously. I understand rule 7 is great to have intelligent discussion, but sometimes it feels like 1 in 10 posts here is someone getting upset about the jokes on this sub. Let the mods deal with it, they regulate the sub.

They were cooked in Greece.

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.

He lost May

Now that I listen to albums, I hardly ever leave the house.

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!

And now I’m cannelloni

Because she wanted to see the task manager.

But that’s comparing apples to oranges

And boy are my arms legs.

Put it on my bill
