    Reminds me a scene in a late 70's TV show called Taxi. one person was helping another study for a driving test; Questioner: "what does a yellow light mean?" Answer: "slow down" Questioner: "what......does.......a ...... yellow .......light .......mean?" Answer: "I said slow down" Questioner: "what..................does....................a .................. yellow ....................light ...................mean?" This went on for a while, it was hysterical.

    "the debugger doesn't tell me anything because this code compiles just fine" - random QA comment "Facebook is where you tell lies to your friends. Twitter is where you tell the truth to strangers." - chriselst "I don't drink any more... then again, I don't drink any less." - Mike Mullikins uncle

    Not safe for work nor kid sister friendly so I won't post it here - but look up the Peanuts Lauder cartoon for a similar joke.

                                    ROTFL! That is probably the funniest Peanuts I've ever seen. Coming to think of it, that's the only funny Peanuts I've seen.
