Setting up a stupid question just to deliver a pun as a punchline is 100% a dad joke in my book.

I’m interested to hear what you think is required for a joke to be a dad joke.

It seems like it was a situation where everyone felt like they got a good deal and nobody felt taken advantage of. He gave them a better deal than they were going to find anywhere else.

To me, it doesn’t sound like he was exploiting his friends.

Dad jokes are classically built around puns, as is the case here.

Setting up context doesn’t make this a knock knock joke.

I agree with your sentement but sometimes places become gentrified and the original inhabitants can no longer afford to live there.

I’m not saying that it’s good or the way things should be but it is a reality.

If his math is right, and assuming that his property tax is about 1-2% of his home’s value per year, then the value of his home has increased about 15-30x the original value.

Its hard to be sympathetic.

They were going to send the weapons either way. They eliminated the school lunch programs so they could cut taxes for the rich.

Maybe they were just asking what the crazy bump is. I think its just supposed to be the crest of her pelvis.

Complains that bubble needs to pop. Is trying to sell a condo but has it priced too high to attract any buyers. Doesn’t lower price.

My dude, your desire for more money is the bubble that’s holding back the sale.

Your scenario is a microcosm of the whole market.

Good point.

Somehow I think that the price of eggs is only a small contributor in the cost for vaccine manufacturing. Don’t worry, there are still enough eggs.

Die in a fire, Bezos.

Ever head the phrase, “Trumped up”

Fair enough.

Just be sure to keep lubricated while you permit all that sliding.

These are the kinds of highly plausible suppositions that I come here for.

Well, I don’t know much about the resolving power and maximum refresh rate of human vision but I’m guessing that the monitor they described is close to the limit.

The analogy refers to someone who has their thinking constrained to the current situation. They didn’t imagine that computers would become resource-intensive multimedia machines, just as this person suggests the cable wouldn’t be asked to carry more data than would be necessary for the 8k monitor.

I can imagine a scenario with dual high resolution screens, cameras and location tracking data passing through a single cable for something like a future VR headset. This may end up needing quite a bit more data throughput than the single monitor–and that isn’t even thinking outside the box. That’s still the current use case.

Do you have a crystal ball over there? I still think it’s a clever analogy.

640k of RAM should be enough for anybody

Indeed, being a multicellular organism usually means you’re either pre-cancer or already have tumors that have not yet become malignant.

You’re not pushing the button fast enough.

*after seeing some other comments, I want to clarify that I was being sarcastic.

I think you could taste a little lower, while you’re down there.

Not to mention that they’ll have to live through the climate wars and that they themselves will create an unnecessary amount of pollution and resource consumption.

The world doesn’t need more people.
