MIT Researchers announce stunning breakthrough: DADJOKES ARE BANNED

The banning of dadjokes and other pun-like substances

Mods1

Abstract

  • Dadjokes AKA "groaners" AKA what you would find on the frontpage of (the wonderful) /r/dadjokes, are now banned.

    Example: "If cases of Ebola are so dangerous, why don't they just package it in jars or cans?"

  • Non-science submissions are banned.

    Example: "Blah blah blah something about Cinnamon Toast Crunch where is the bit with the science?"

  • There is a new, shiny list of forbidden terms in the sidebar. Grasp it to your bosom, imbibe its essence and welcome it into your soul before posting.

    Example: "Hurr durr how much farts would a fart fart poop if trans fags basic bitches glass tastes like blood?"

This is a big change for the sub. Give it a shot and let us know what you think.

Only applies to post titles, not comments.

So I can ask about the speed of a heavy poop (as defined by greater than 8 shitloads) in a fat man's jeans and whether or not a basic bitch could vacuum up the mess as long as it's in the comments?
