Yeah, I gotcha on that. It's just, there's something beyond 'it's really funny' for me.Mikey wrote:Because it is really funny.

Re: The Joke Thread
There are 10 kinds of people in this world: those who understand binary, and those who don't.

I actually put that comment up at work (which has a lot of programmers), and several people just looked at it while saying "I don't get it".Mikey wrote:There are 10 kinds of people in this world: those who understand binary, and those who don't.
So instead I wound up putting:
There are three types of people. Those who can count, and those who can't.

Re: The Joke Thread
It doesn't say three, it's two. In binary 01 = 1, 10 = 2, 11 = 3. Which is why it make sense. It reads "There are 2 kinds of people in this world: those who understand binary, and those who don't." except it's in binary.Coalition wrote:I actually put that comment up at work (which has a lot of programmers), and several people just looked at it while saying "I don't get it".Mikey wrote:There are 10 kinds of people in this world: those who understand binary, and those who don't.

Yes. The concept is that people at a programming company didn't understand binary.IanKennedy wrote:It doesn't say three, it's two. In binary 01 = 1, 10 = 2, 11 = 3. Which is why it make sense.

Re: The Joke Thread
A Russian couple walks down a street in Moscow when the man feels a drop hit his nose.
"I think it's raining," he says to his wife.
"No, that feels like snow to me, dear," she replies.
Just then, a minor communist party official walks towards them.
"Let's not fight about it," the man says. "Let's ask Comrade Rudolph whether it's officially raining or snowing."
"It's raining, of course" Comrade Rudolph says and walks on.
But the woman insists, "I know that felt like snow."
To which the man quietly says, "Rudolph the Red knows rain, dear."

Two nuns in the bath.
One turns to the other and says "Where's the soap?"
The other says "Yes, it does. doesn't it".
