The rules limiting “mature-natured” jokes have been lifted after the general consensus of feedback was in favor of more openness. Thank you all for taking part of the discussion. I am always open to suggestions on how to improve the community as it develops.

On a personal note, as fall sets in for me, I realize I haven’t had a single mosquito in my backyard all summer.

Apparently they were all married.

    To me, dad jokes and uncle jokes are not just different because of themes, but for the “type” of punchline.

    If a joke is about sex, but it’s a pun or otherwise groan-inducing, to me it’s still a dad joke.

    When the punchline itself becomes “hehe sex”, that’s when it crosses into uncle joke territory.
