Every now and then a truly creative, funny joke is upvoted heavily. The rest of the time, if I want shallow snark I’ll visit Reddit.

Indeed. The issue I had here was not that there was a joke in a place of solemnity, but that it was an old and low-effort joke that also didn't add to the discussion.

So you decided to go out of your way to point that out? Where's your erudite contribution to the discussion then?
