Weekly Wrap Up (Jun. 12 - Jun. 18)


I read a joke in Chapter 5 of Dabegal's new story House of Frost the other day from @weinerdog:

Q: What do gay horses eat?

Spoiler

A: Heeeeyyyy

Okay, if you have stopped your uncontrollable laughter or maybe your uncontrollable groans, I want to mention that I think that falls in what people now refer to as 'Dad Jokes'. So here is the question for this week and what better time to do it than on Father's Day 2022, what is your best Dad Joke? Or maybe your worst :gikkle:? Add them to the comments below and we will see what we will get 0:) 

Everyone, if you could also check out the quick poll being done by Myr, it would be totally helpful and give us an idea of how things are going. Seriously, took under 20 seconds for me to answer!

Onto the Wrap up for the week at the GA News Blog. We had a bit of later start of the week, the Review Team came up with a great review of an author that is getting lots of love and features this month :P:

Thursday, Myr popped in and gave us a surprise announcement for the Grammar Guide :o:

Friday, the Prompt Team had some fun with June being recognized as the month of Pride. There was also an interesting technical prompt too:

Saturday we got to appreciate another great Writing Tip Article done up by Comicality:

So what about the words of the day? Any surprises in this list?

boniface, encroach, sic, impolitic, naval gazing, mucro, conclave

Last but not least of the new material, except for the stories, here is how we are doing on our goals with only 11 days left :o We are doing great!!!

What does the baby computer call his father?   Data. 

Did you hear about the dad who invented the knock-knock joke?   He won the 'no-bell' prize.
