Hey everyone,
Just wanted to share my experience here.
I'm vacationing in Belize and we decided to get PADI open water certified while here. It's been a blast but ran into a hiccup. Still debating if it's going to put a full stop on driving further, or if I'll be just way more conservative going forward.
Anyways, the final 2 dives of our course were yesterday. Both were to 60ft off of a reef near Ambergris Caye, for 30 minutes, with a 1 hour break in between.
After the first dive I had some mild sea sickness, but didn't think anything of it and it passed. During the second dive I developed a bit of acid reflux mid way through but nothing devastating.
After ascending and doing our stop with the rest of the class, we made our way to the boat and I felt fine. After about 5 minutes I began to shiver, and after 10 everything became tingly. Hands, legs, and even my eye lids.
My instructor quickly got his emergency oxygen kit, then water taxi over to the DAN Recompression center for examination and the 5 hour session.
At $1000 per hour it's not cheap but I'm thankful to have insurance and be in good hands while out here. I don't want this to ruin diving for me, but I think I'll be way more conservative with my ambitions forever. Especially since you're more susceptible after your first run in.
All other student divers are fine, I guess I've just got issues with nitrogen. Oh well.
I'm going to be speaking with a diving specialist doctor once back home, as well as DAN for ideas on why this could happen and my risks going forward.
At the very least this also extended our trip an extra day since I'm grounded for 72 hours now.
So if someone were to go scuba diving, but had issues with decompression sickness and had to go to a recompression chamber, what would happen with the air pockets in their ears/sinuses (provided they're unconscious and can't equalize the pressure in their ears)? How is that handled?
Say one day the regulator suddenly got stuck or I run out of Air. I perform an emergency ascend from 40 M. I feel not bends YET. Is it wise or not to immediately get a new tank and dive back and slowly perform emergency stops and decompression ascend if I feel no negative symptoms at all, yet?
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.
I guess the concept didn't work
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
Do your worst!
How the hell am I suppose to know when it’s raining in Sweden?
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.
Now that I listen to albums, I hardly ever leave the house.

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!!!"
Don't you know a good pun is its own reword?
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

But that’s comparing apples to oranges
And boy are my arms legs.
Put it on my bill
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
They’re on standbi
A play on words.

My daughter, Chewbecca, not so much.
