At least you understood that it was an attempt at humor. Humor is subjective.

It's called ironic/satirical, actually. And irony can't be understood if there's not the same knowledge about a thing. So understanding the irony and humor in this means the thinking expressed in the post is aligned to the reader's. If one can understand it, one already shows the same thinking patterns about the topic (corresponds to having the same knowledge..)

"'t ain't funny, McGee." The author isn't talented enough to pull off the humor angle so it just comes across as what kids these day refer to as "cringe".
