Hi Fred,

It takes a condition called irony-deficit disorder to wade into these
things and say that. ;-)

Let's just give an example of the straight-man's lead into the joke:

"I flipped the switch to a 100W light Bulb.
What direction vector is the optical power?"

The Scientist would ask for this in standard notation, but we all know
that he isn't going to get that - hence, the subject from the
beginning is a joke. Now, only to wait for the punchline:
(drumroll) Ta-ta-dum....
