dirtying my douyin feed
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 π
It really does, I swear!
Buenosdillas
Theyβre on standbi
Pilot on me!!
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.
What did 0 say to 8 ?
" Nice Belt "
So What did 3 say to 8 ?
" Hey, you two stop making out "
I won't be doing that today!
##Flight of the Southern Dragon
###Prologue
Following the Kuomintang's failed expedition to unit China under the white sun, the country has nominally been led by the Qing, restored in the late 20s following German intervention on the behalf of the Zhili Clique, led by Wu Peifu, the Jade Marshall. However, to the south of Peking lies the League of Eight Provinces, a confederation of the provinces of Guangxi, Hunan, Guangdong, Jiangxi, Fujian, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, and Anhui. Led by Sun Chuanfang, it makes up the southern portion of the clique, marking an internal divide across Chinese national leadership. While there have been few major incidents in the region save for the 1932 Shanghai Uprising, all is not well in the middle kingdom.
On January 8th, 1936, the Zhegan railway was opened. Constructed by Chinese engineers and funded by the Aufsichtsrat der Ostasiatischen Generalverwaltung (AOG for short), it connected the cities of Nanchang and Shanghai. Being the first solely Chinese-built and designed railway built in many years, it became somewhat of a cause for celebration among those who built it. Their success, however, was short-lived. Only a week after the opening of the line, the AOG announced its intentions to buy out many eastern railways, including the Zhegan. Following its purchase, several protests broke out all across the league. Few would have expected the downward spiral in China following the Zhegan purchase.
###The East China Spring
Following the transfer of ownership to the AOG, despite Chinese management remaining, outrage began to spread amongst the public. The move was heavily criticized by prominent Chinese intellectuals, and several newspapers published by the Workers Party of China can be found in Shanghai criticizing the purchase. Protestors could be found from Nanjing to Guangzhou, with no signs of stopping with the police already having issues controlling them. Protests continued through the week and began to take a turn for the violent.
As the population continued to show their opposition to the ever-growing German control over China into their third week, an outraged group of fishermen banded together and assaulted a German businessman in his home in Xiamen. Inspired by their actions, attacks on Germans residing in China have started, with many fleeing to Shanghai. Few Germans can be seen in public on their own in the League anymore, with those staying arming themselves.

I have always wondered why xue bayi is named the way he is - the characters for ba yi are literally just 8 (ba) and 1 (yi). It's like if my english name was just "Eighty One". I wondered if it was a reference to the Nanchang Uprising (which occured on Aug 1st and is a pretty big deal for mainlanders and so "bayi/8-1" usually references that event), but it seemed like a weird thing to name yourself after (or to name your child, if bayi is his actual name given by his parents?). So I looked it up and turns out xue bayi's birthday is also august 1st... so it's probably just a reference to that, not the historical event (or both??) Guess I'll never forget when his birthday is anymore bc it's baked into his name :"D
also apologies if the filter doesn't really fit! It's more a weird little trivia nugget than actual real info HAHA
You take away their little brooms
