That's a great idea for when there's a group and some are less than enthused about walking around the zoo, add some screens to show thr games going on and I see a way to bring in those not interested in the zoo.
No More Going To The Dispensary Before Labeling Spices
Interestingly, dad jokes might actually be good for kids.
Marc Hye-Knudsen, a researcher of humor and lab manager at Aarhus University’s Cognition and Behavior Laboratory in Denmark, wrote in the British Psychological Society's journal that they are important to help the little ones learn to accept that embarrassment.
"At first blush, fathers’ more aggressive style of physical play and their teasing style of humor with their children might seem cruel, but that would be missing the point," Hye-Knudsen explained. "By continually pushing and challenging their children, fathers’ style of rough-and-tumble play supports their children’s physical and cognitive development in important ways while teaching them to regulate their behaviors and emotions."
Ouch!

Yeah, she is literally putting the 'fun' into funeral.
Load More Replies...All I can say is, if I know my time is coming, my family better brace themselves 😂
"Ideally, fathers’ rougher style of joking fulfills a similar function: by teasingly striking at their children’s egos and emotions without teetering over into bullying, fathers build their children’s resilience and train them to withstand minor attacks and bouts of negative emotion without getting worked up or acting out, teaching them impulse control and emotional regulation," the researcher said.
In light of this, Hye-Knudsen thinks it is worth considering dad jokes as a pedagogical tool that may serve a beneficial function for the very children who roll their eyes at them.
Ouch

"Telling their children jokes that are so bad that they’re embarrassing, fathers may push their children’s limits for how much embarrassment they can handle," Hye-Knudsen said.
"They show their children that embarrassment isn’t fatal. For a child who is approaching or has entered adolescence, which appears to be a sensitive period for sociocultural processing, this is an immensely valuable lesson. In this sense, dad jokes may have a positive ... effect, toughening up the kids who are begrudgingly exposed to them."
Makes Sense

The "opened window" looks lovely and restful. Mindfulness? Only thing missing is a cozy bed 🛌😴
It's True
For this reason, Hye-Knudsen suggests that dad jokes are perfectly suited to our era. "In contemporary Western culture, which rewards individualism over traditional conformity, it’s a boon to be able to withstand the short-term embarrassment that comes from violating social norms in order to stand by one’s authentic self despite external social pressure."
This Made Me Laugh Way Too Hard!
Unless he has a whole LOT of M&Ms. In which case, you give him other people's M&Ms.
How rich people do it: Tell your son to ask his friend to store the M&Ms at his house where your 'taxes' do not apply. Then the friend can just send some to your son when he wants to eat them. *sigh
Except if you live in any other country other than the US. Here all our taxes are taken out of our pay cheques automatically
Crazy how if someone has far more M&Ms they could ever eat in a lifetime, or 3000 lifetimes, the idea that they give some of those M&Ms to people who don't have any is considered an idiot idea.

"Dad jokes resemble the rough-and-tumble play that fathers have instinctively been moved to engage their children in since before the dawn of our species, without knowing the important function that such roughhousing plays in their children’s development," the researcher continued.
"Among non-human primates, fathers also love playing rough with their offspring. While dad jokes are ideally suited to [contemporary life] and the distinctly modern father figure, the phenomenon thus builds on inclinations that go back literally millions of years."

But For Real
The term dad joke made it into the Merriam-Webster dictionary in 2019 with the definition, “a wholesome joke of the type said to be told by fathers with a punchline that is often an obvious or predictable pun or play on words and usually judged to be endearingly corny or unfunny.”
And thanks to pages like 'Premium Dad Jokes', the best ones will live on the internet for future generations as well.

Yes but as long as they said out loud "that's not going anywhere" when they tied it up, it should be good!
Indeed
At least this works. The reason why motor oil has to be labeled 'Not for purposes of cooking" is that people *will* cook with it and then complain about having to be hospitalized afterwards.
Not sure all vehicle oils would be okay, but canola or rape seed oil might work. It's high viscosity, it might do in a pinch. But may be more expensive then motor oil.
Load More Replies...Can't tell what kind of oil it is, but corn oil has a viscosity almost the same as straight 40 motor oil at 100F, so it might be a bit thick for modern engines but would do in a pinch.

If you happen to get on a plane with a baby, here's some advice. 1. There are two kinds of people on that plane: People who have (or have had) children, and people who have never had children. The first group understands. The second do not ... yet! 2. Give the baby something to drink during takeoff and landing. Helps equalize the pressure. 3. Babies tend to mirror their parents. Be calm. If you are on a plane, and there is a noisy baby on board, you have my sympathy. However, when taking "public transportation", please keep in mind that "public" includes infants, and sometimes there's not much a parent can do about a crying baby.
Gonna just point out one thing... not everyone who never have children "doesn't understand". Some of us had to care for baby cousins... we do understand :p
Load More Replies...I am all of these!! Not because of crying baby, feel sad for both the baby and parents, but I CANNOT STAND the gobshite parents that think their child is the gifts from the gods and we should all just make room for them to jump around, throwing food, kicking and screaming and I have nowhere to go for the next 7 hrs.
