Sure this probably would pan at a comedy open mike night but it’s literally on programmer humor. And using concept outside its normal concept or conflating two concepts is pretty standard humor.

I understand humour is subjective but some jokes aren’t as strong as others (and some jokes aren’t jokes at all).
