Dad jokes are known for their cheesy and corny humor. They often involve puns, wordplay, and silly one-liners. While they may not always elicit a laugh, they can still bring a smile to your face. However, sometimes dad jokes can take a musical twist, adding an extra layer of humor and entertainment to the mix. When it comes to dad jokes where the music happens, there are several avenues to explore. One popular category involves puns related to musical terms or song lyrics.

Cat casting spells

OK, I have a tibbit spellcaster. And for the sake of stealth and misdirection, I'd like to try to cast spells from cat form, if possible.

So, what spell components are available to a cat-form tibbit?

Verbal - obviously, she can't speak in cat form, so unless I use silent spells or an item that allows cats to speak, she won't be casting verbal spells as a cat (she is planning to either have a talking cat item or get the silent spell feat, probably)

Somatic - how complex are the hand movements? Could they be done with paws, or do you need fingers to do them? Would it make sense to give them a Dexterity check to see if I can cast them in cat form, and if so, what would be the most logical DCs?

Material/Focus - does she need to manipulate the object, or just be in contact with it? If she had, say, a focus on her collar, would that work?

I know my DM makes the final call, but if I can give him a good argument for something, he'll probably go with it.

The tibbit statblock is pretty unambiguous about this.

A tibbit's cat form is unable to speak or use her paws to manipulate fine objects. She cannot cast spells with a verbal or somatic component, use scrolls, or otherwise activate magic items.

Furthermore, since all of your equipment is melded into your form, any spells that also require any components are unavailable (no pouch!), unless you've got Eschew Materials going. Not that you'd be able to manipulate them anyway.

Pretty much why most people recommend going with a psionic class for Tibbits; nothing to stop you from manifesting powers while you're a cat.

Savage Species gives us Surrogate Spellcasting, which allows you to use meows and tail-twitches as verbal and somatic components. I personally would've allowed Natural Spell as well, but Surrogate Spellcasting actually works by RAW, so that's helpful.

Eschew Materials is probably what you want to do for the material side�but again, I would consider asking your GM if you can just pick up Natural Spell, since that feat also allows you to use any spell components or foci you have in your possession, even if they're melded into your current form.

OK, that sounds workable.

One more question. What does AF stand for? Necrotic cyst says one of it's components is AF, and I can't find any info on what that it.

No cute pun replies?

Like, a cat can cast "Magic Meowth"?

Fun fact, tibbits qualify for several special feats and a special skill called Handle Humanoid, check out the Fabulous Cats article

Said article has been swallowed by the archive of devouring. You can find it here (http://archive.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/fools/20030401c). :smallcool:

It's as goofy as you'd expect, but there's some useful stuff there. The Collar of Perpetual Attendance may or may not be the best magical item.

I know they can also cast Purrmanency, and automatically can choose to have a Revivify effect go off once they die. It can only be used 8 times though.

Note that the "Fabulous Cats" is an April Fools article, so your DM might not allow some of it.

Though the Collar of Perpetual Attendance and the some of the spells are less ridiculous then the rest of the article.

One popular category involves puns related to musical terms or song lyrics. For example, a dad may say, "Why did the musician go to jail? Because he got caught stealing chord progressions!" This joke combines a play on words with a reference to a musician's work, making it funny for those who understand the musical context. Another type of dad joke involving music is when a dad turns a common phrase or saying into a musical version.

Deborah Blake is an expert on cats and everday witchcraft, so I was happy to see that she finally combined her wisdom on both these topics in one book. The author draws from literature, her personal experience, mythology and folklore to explain why cats are the magical creatures we always knew them to be. I particularly love the Persian cat creation story, that I had never read anywhere else before. The book contains quotes, spells, poems, stories and heartfelt advice on several cat related topics. Like all of Deborah Blake's books, it is written in a joyful, down to earth and warm style. This makes a perfect gift for every cat crazy and/or magical person.

For instance, he might say, "I can't find my music sheet. I guess it went solo!" This joke brings together the idea of someone going solo in both their musical performance and in terms of losing their sheet music. It's a simple play on words that can get a chuckle out of anyone who appreciates dad humor. In addition to wordplay, some dad jokes in the music realm focus on musical instruments. For instance, a dad might say, "Why couldn't the bicycle find its way home? Because it lost its bearings!" This joke combines the idea of a bicycle needing bearings to function properly with the term "bearings" being used in a musical context to refer to the tonal quality of an instrument. Dad jokes where the music happens can also involve making puns out of famous song titles or lyrics. For example, a dad may say, "Why did the scarecrow start singing? Because it heard there was a 'sunshine on my shoulders'!" This joke cleverly plays off the well-known song "Sunshine on My Shoulders" by John Denver and incorporates it into a silly scenario involving a scarecrow. Overall, dad jokes where the music happens add an extra element of fun to the already cheesy and amusing world of dad humor. They often involve wordplay, puns, and references to musical terms, instruments, or songs. While they may not make everyone burst into laughter, these jokes can bring a smile to your face and lighten the mood with their lighthearted and playful nature. So next time you hear a dad joke with a musical twist, don't be afraid to embrace the silliness and enjoy the moment..

Reviews for "From Dad Jokes to Rock Hits: The Soundtrack of Laughter"

1. Ben - 1 star - This show was a complete flop. The jokes were stale and not even remotely funny. I didn't understand the humor and felt like I was wasting my time sitting through it. The supposed "music" was just a bunch of random sounds that didn't make any sense. Overall, I was highly disappointed and would not recommend this show to anyone.

2. Emily - 2 stars - I had high hopes for this show, but it fell flat. The dad jokes were cringe-worthy and lacked originality. The attempts at incorporating music into the jokes were forced and didn't add anything to the overall experience. I found myself bored and unamused throughout most of the performance. Save your money and find another comedy show to attend.

3. Mark - 2 stars - I was expecting a hilarious night filled with clever dad jokes, but unfortunately, this show missed the mark. The humor was predictable and lacked creativity. The musical aspect felt forced and didn't enhance the jokes in any way. There were a few chuckle-worthy moments, but overall, it was underwhelming. I would suggest looking for a different comedy show that offers more consistent laughs.
