"Dad, I’m hungry."

"Hi, hungry. I’m Dad."

There's an example of the beloved form of humor: The Dad Joke.

But what makes something a dad joke instead of just a corny joke? We've got two folklorists answering that question and looking at the history of the 'art' form. Happy Father's Day to all the Dads out there, funny or not!

Leave a favorite in the replies, so we can all groan together

"In contrast, Locke lived at a time when it was still possible for a well-educated man to master many branches of knowledge. The polymath was still a reality: John Locke, though primarily a philosopher, was a qualified doctor, and wrote on theology, political theory, and education. His herbarium (a collection of 3,000 flowers) preserved between sheets of his pupils' exercises, and now housed in the Bodleian Library at Oxford) is possibly the oldest surviving collection of English wild flowers."

@bibliolater @earlymodern @histodon @histodons @philosophy There are polymaths still. Exemplars such as have been separated from the rabble of humanity by time. You will find living ‘diamonds in the rough’ if you travel, explore and engage!!

A new publication from UT Press provides a troubling twist on the vow “until death do us part.” Often overlooked in other tellings of the events, Unheard Witness reveals the story of Kathy Leissner Whitman, one of the first victims of the UT Tower sniper, murdered by her husband before he killed so many others.

Senior Staff Writer Lise Olsen reviews this important and troubling book: https://www.texasobserver.org/kathy-leissner-whitman-belltower-snipers-wife-review/
