This is a prime example of a good joke.

Sorry, I don't get it... I think it's too complex for me

[–] MouldyC@slrpnk.net 27 points 2 years ago

Transcendental, even.

Old jokes always circle back around.

Possibly even a Tau joke

I guess I'm too square to get this joke.

Jocularity. Thank you for showing me a new word.

[–] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Jocularity.

Be careful how you use it. It's nothing to laugh at

so we should say

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, Sharon, 7, 8 now?

Erm, wat?

It's Zoey, Omar, Tony, Thomas, Fiona, Felix, Sharon, Sonya, Edward, Nina, Zomar, Marmar, Tomar, Thomar, Fiomar, Femar, Shamar, Sonmar, Edmar, Nimar, Zony, Ony and so on.

So Tony^Edward = Shalixy

East and West are already interchangeable with Dennis in my house so why not

The regret turned into fear by the time the 13th decimal crossed.
