Dad jokes…there was one that my dad has done since I was little. Whenever we’d go to the town of Alameda (small island in the bay area) we’d pass by a sign that says “Draw bridge” as you cross one to get to the island. Whenever we’d go there my dad would always tell us “Don’t forget your pencils.” I continue this tradition and tell that to my cousin when I’m on my way to the Spindox yoyo club, crossing that same bridge.

That was a stretch. But I’m pretty sure that especially bad dad jokes are somehow regarded as especially good dad jokes?

I just made up one, though probably been thought up already…

“What do you call a band of Loony Scottish Streakers?”

“The Off KILTers!”

I think it works, better it you drop the first “it”: “Igloos it together”

I only do it to get around the “post must be 4 characters” thingy which I’m sure I definitely should not do because they already implemented the liking system (also, Jeff, I run out too often, can you give me unlimited likes?) But all you need to do is stack the thingy that says (arrow)sub(arrow) a bunch on either side, I do multiples of 3, and normally 12 reps of (sub) is what does it, quite tedious to type on a phone but still fun lol. remember to count in 3s, it makes it a lot easier.

Oh, gotcha. I have done it that way too, I just didn’t know if there was a specific element or attribute for making words teeny tiny.
