2006-08-29.txt:19:06:21: <GregorR-W> OK, in case you guys were wondering, the joke is long-dead.
2007-07-16.txt:21:43:04: <GregorR> oklopol: The joke is simply how buzzwordy it is to call yourself the international hub for ___ design and deployment.
2007-08-19.txt:21:56:53: <lament> r2q2: Yes. And the joke is two years old.
2007-10-03.txt:18:43:21: <ehird`> the joke is that people will instinctively downvote anyone with a low karma, which is of course false
2008-06-11.txt:16:33:13: <Slereah7> Good thing that XKCD has those awesome graphics when the joke isn't funny.
2008-10-26.txt:19:05:41: <ehird> oh noes the joke is homophobic
2008-10-26.txt:19:06:39: <oklocod> the joke is the first guys say vaginas are great for banging, last guy joins in, and says (without stealing focus), that he's like to *have* a vagina
2008-10-26.txt:19:12:49: <oklocod> the joke is, liking vaginas is something that, in the pseudoworld where i live and where that joke works, is a manly thing; if you like a vagina, you're manly; once it goes over a certain point, you become the opposite of manly, because you suddenly want to be a woman
2008-10-26.txt:19:15:25: <oklocod> if there's a world in which the joke is funny, and a world i can picture in my head, the joke is inherently funny.
2009-01-14.txt:17:01:13: <ehird> it's more that the joke is turning me into a gibbering wreck

2009-04-21.txt:23:13:10: <ais523> I'm not entirely sure the phrase is defined, but the joke is common enough that it tends to come up a lot anyway
2009-07-07.txt:19:07:02: <oklodok> i don't see how that matters, the gist of the joke is it doesn't matter in whatever branch the lecturer does either
2009-09-02.txt:23:56:20: <ais523> now I'm wondering what the joke is
2009-09-10.txt:06:05:05: <coppro> the joke is largely that you don't get the joke
2009-09-30.txt:22:03:02: <AnMaster> so should I interpret this as no one having a clue what the joke is?
2009-11-14.txt:23:49:19: <oerjan> but that would require me explaining what the point of the joke is!
2010-01-15.txt:00:39:53: <ehird> Thus implying that the sexual prowess of the butt of the joke is so limited that women ask to be sedated so that they will not feel it as much.
2010-06-27.txt:21:37:29: <alise> i think the joke is meant to be in the alt text
