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.

Why is Vietnamese culture in the Chinese culture group?

Wouldn't it be more accurate to group them in the Mon-Khmer culture group (and perhaps rename them to Austroasiatic) as they're more related to them? (as far as I know)

Who are the "Wild Tribes" encountered in Classical Indian Literature?

Whenever I read literature such as the Ramayana, Mahabharata, Kautilya's Arthashastra and so forth, they sometime describe "wild tribes" of people in the forest. I assume that they are what remained of the non-Vedic autochtonous inhabitants of the Indian Subcontinent which haven't been integrated by the migrating Indo-Aryans, but what strikes me is that there are so many of them.

What do we know about the ethnic and linguistic identities of these peoples? Are they speakers of Dravidian, Mon-Khmer or even Sino-Tibetan languages? Do the numerous references to these tribes point to an ongoing process of conflict and integration of Vedic culture when these works of literature were written? If so, I am interested in how these tribes became "Sanskritised" over time.

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!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies πŸ˜‚

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.

Why do so many Khmers accuse Thailand and Vietnam for 'stealing’ their lands?

PS: Not all Khmers are like this. I have visited Siem Reap before and the people there are very nice, however, the Khmer internet users are totally opposite of the Khmers I saw in Siem Reap. I've seen so many YouTube comments from Khmers accusing Thailand and Vietnam of stealing their lands and saying that they should go back to China where they originally came from.

The Khmer Empire was extremely large, powerful, and rich. It covered large swaths of Indochina. Most of the territory of Laos and Thailand were part of the Khmer Empire. Parts of Myanmar and Vietnam were also part of the Khmer Empire.

As history has shown us, empires do fall and the Khmer Empire fell due to many reasons. After the weakening of the Khmer Empire, Thai and Laotians took their western and northern regions. As Vietnam got stronger, they took the Mekong Delta.

Losing land is normal, but why do so many Khmers make a big fuss about the issue and accuse Thailand and Vietnam for stealing them? While Thailand and Vietnam did take their lands after the decline of the Khmer Empire, it was the Khmer’s fault that they weren’t able to defend those lands. The weak die and the strong thrive. Also, to create the Khmer Empire, Khmers had to steal lands from the Mons, Malays, and many other non-Khmer ethnic groups.

Khmers accusing Thailand and Vietnam for stealing their land is like:

  • Italians accusing France, Spain, or Britain for stealing their lands as the Roman Empire had control of those regions at one point in history.
  • Brits accusing the USA of stealing their lands as they were once part of the UK at one point in history.
  • Germans accusing Poland of stealing their lands since huge chunks of Poland were under German rule historically.

Looking from a Southeast Asia perspective:

  • Burmans accusing Thailand and Laos for stealing their lands because they were under the rule of the Taungoo Empire at one point in history.
  • Laotians accusing Thailand for stealing their lands as Isan was part of Laotian kingdoms at one point in history.
  • Thais accusing Laos and Cambodia for stealing their lands as they were under the rule of the Rattanakosin Kingdom at one point in history.
  • Viets accusing Laos and Cambodia for stealing their lands as they were under the rule of the Nguyα»…n Dynasty at one point in history.

While the Southeast Asian examples I mentioned do happen at times, they happen much less frequently than Khmers. Why is that the case?
