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.

Sure you can already find a number of articles talking about the other parts that are similar with characters, themes, etc. I wanted to speculate on where this was at.
Sure, they said that they were in Brazil but that was only where they started and where they were caught by the Tupi. I believe they ended up in Venezuela though because the Spanish conquistadors weren't really in Brazil. They were further North (like Venezuela) and West (like Peru).
So how can we get there by boat? Based on the map of where the Tupi are in Brazil, it seems the closest I can find them to where Spanish conquistadors would have been is around the Rio Negro near to modern day Ponta. If we follow that river far enough back, we head North into Venezuela where it breaks into two branches and if we follow the one to the East it eventually becomes the Brazo Casiquiare which is a distributary of the Orinoco. Tangent: Orinoco is the fourth largest river (by volume discharged) in the world but is hardly recognized mostly because of how massive the Amazon is in comparison being so close. Then down at the delta where Orinoco becomes Cano Manamo, it empties into the Gulf of Paria which is connected to the Caribbean Sea.
Ok, I admit I could have just stopped at the part where it heads up into Venezuela but I wanted to tie this to the Pirates of the Caribbean and even the earliest European voyages.
Interestingly there was a expedition done near the movies time frame (1918 vs 1924) but was traveled in reverse from my speculation (from the Orinoco to the Amazon) by Alexander H Rice Jr.
Do your worst!
They were cooked in Greece.
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!
Because she wanted to see the task manager.
Heard they've been doing some shady business.
but then I remembered it was ground this morning.
Edit: Thank you guys for the awards, they're much nicer than the cardboard sleeve I've been using and reassures me that my jokes aren't stale
Edit 2: I have already been made aware that Men In Black 3 has told a version of this joke before. If the joke is not new to you, please enjoy any of the single origin puns in the comments
BamBOO!
Theyβre on standbi
A play on words.
My daughter, Chewbecca, not so much.
Pilot on me!!

Nothing, he was gladiator.
Don't you know a good pun is its own reword?
Or would that be too forward thinking?
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 ?

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.
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.
