Then why pretend the question in the first place? Is that how you worked your way up to 40K karma tokens? Low hanging fruit harvests?

Look at the sequence: You inquired. I answered. Not finding something funny is not really a good reason to fake a question you never intended to really have answered. You are kind of admitting that you knew it was humor but decided to approach it deceptively, or manipulatively, as if I am the only one ever to make a joke that wasn't universally appreciated.

I think that makes you a prick, with a lot of karma-tokens to play with.
