What Dad jokes have you heard lately?
I heard the tournament organizers ran into financial trouble and the event folded.
“When you’re hiking and a 9 foot bear rears up out of nowhere and growls at you, reach back and grab a handful of shit and throw it at the bears eyes.”
“Where did the shit come from?”
“Trust me, it’ll be there.”
Actually, I watched that live. Very exciting. There was a rookie who took an early lead but the pressure got to him and he folded.
You could see it coming. Every time he made a mistake, he would crumple.
As soon as I read that, I immediately filled in, “PAPER VIEW, CORAL!”
Dammit. I came into this thread excited that I was about to be exposed to a world of competitive origami I heretofore had not heard of.
I was all set to recommend a couple of live-streaming sports sites that would probably air it. If you’re quick, you can usually find a link to one of them in this forum in Sunday morning.
I was watching origami live from Florida, but there was too much humidity and it became the world curling championship.
Why, yes, I am a dad…
Someone spent too much time working in the crease and a hockey game broke out.
I’d never watch it.
Origami is for squares!
I heard there was a good overhead view. They had a camera on a crane.
Did you see last year’s championship? The official supplier had insufficient supplies and the organizers were furious.
Headlines at the time: Origami Supplier Reamed Out
They were still feuding this year over who was at fault but they tried to paper over their differences.
Remember that year they tried a single elimination tournament? No one could get past the seventh round.
We went up some mountain trails a while back. The first part was five miles long, the second part nine miles and the third part five more, but we managed to end up at the trailhead. It was a hike coup.
I heard this years competition was intense with contestants limited to using cheap card stock.
It was dubbed “The Thrilla of Manila”.
Others did not like the judges ruling on the new paper type and argued for more transparency.
Sure. That was infamous. None of the contestants could cut it.
Origami championships are only shown live. Rules forbid taping.
It would have been even more of a hike coup if the second part were only seven miles long.
Why did the scarecrow win an award?
For being outstanding in his field.
“Did they ever catch those two thieves who stole a calendar?”
“Yeah - I heard they each got six months.”
Count me as one of those whose was really kind of excited to learn about an origami championship. sad
