Even the X robots drive into a bar joke is funnier than the supposed joke used to start this thread.


Or to put it another way: If someone has to read your "joke" multiple times and it's still not obvious you're telling a joke after that, there's a good chance that they'll think you're serious. That's probably what triggered this.

Mods, I think this thread may need to be closed for a while, and maybe someone can try again with a different opening?

I'd love to hear the mentor built joke.
