      I did and I actually get that you were essentially making the same joke to which I replied. I still thought it was funny that the wording matched.

        Got it.

        Yeah, this one landed very badly. I try to find balance between too obvious and too cryptic. I figured I would get knee jerk reactions but it seems even when pointing the second part out readers don’t get it.

        If almost everyone is confused by your joke, you didn’t tell it well.
