A list of puns related to "Εruti"
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!

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.

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.
There hasn't been a post all year!
There was a recent post (which I am not able to locate now) with the theory that varna restrictions applied only to "ritual purity" of rituals, and not to Vedic study. I found a relevant section in Sri Rama Ramanuja Achari's treatise on Mimamsa which seems to support that conclusion:
========
It has been traditionally believed that Veda study is open only to men of the upper three castes. This denial of universal access in fact has been one of the greatest obstacles to the preservation and propagation of the Veda. This prerogative for Veda study in latter centuries became the exclusive privilege of male Brahmins only. Even today most Brahmin Veda scholars and teachers generally do not teach any nonbrahmins, women and certainly not foreigners. But the Veda itself, on the contrary declares that it is meant for all.

>"Just as I have revealed this beneficial [Vedic] truth to all people, Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Sudras, Vaishyas (aryas), our own kin (svaya) and to the foreigners (aranΔya) also". (Sukla Yajur Veda 26:2)

>βO Man, I, being of the nature of truth and being unfathomable, have revealed the true Vedic knowledge; so I am he who gave birth to the Veda. I cannot be partial either to a DΔsa (sudra) or an Arya; I save all those who behave like myself (i.e., impartially) and follow my truthful commandsβ. (Atharva Veda 5.11.3)
Although there are some passages in the Brahmanas which discuss the Sudras eligibility to perform sacrifices (yajΓ±as) nowhere in Samhita or the Upanisadic portions is any mention made of eligibility based on gender, social differences or ethnic origins.
The oft quoted passages limiting Veda study to male Brahmins only occur from the Smrti period onwards. Most of what the Smrtis have to say is redundant in modern times. And if there is a conflict between SmαΉti and Εruti the Εruti is the final authority.
Everyone has the right to the highest wisdom from the best source available, and everyone should be encouraged to study the Veda and the allied Sacred texts.

This view resonates with me.
Thanks for reading.

Me grabbing a soda from my (what I thought was) half full 12pk...
Notices there's only 2;
Me: "Awe man... This is a damn bird box!" Her: "What the hell does that mean?!" Me: (Pulls both cans out & shows them to her) "It's only got Toucans."
I'm not ashamed to admit the look on her face was glorious.
I was just sitting there doing nothing.
