Uhh.. this analysis makes no sense at all. And now OP has admitted that the joke doesn't make sense and doesn't work. Still, just for edification:
Pavlov's reaction: If something unexpected happens (like bumping into someone), the event might "trigger" a conditioned response — such as Pavlov salivating because he’s used to the bell.
There was no conditioned response.
The wordplay is clever because "paradox" not only describes Schrödinger's cat but also the confusing situation of this fictional encounter.
There was no confusion.
That's my interpretation of what they were going for.
I'm asking what the joke is. That's the focus here. Because it's presented as a joke. Even though it appears not to be. If you get it, please explain it.
Obviously. But what about them?
Being mysterious doesn't help me I'm afraid. Still don't get it. The punchline doesn't make sense and doesn't ring a bell.
The fact that you haven't just explained the joke makes me think you can't because it doesn't work as a joke. Right?
What's the idea?
Thanks
Don't get it. Suspect it doesn't actually make sense.
the lemmy.world "illegal picture scanner" ... would reject my upload if it had any words relating to kids, apparently, up to and including "parenthood"
ROFL
This seems like an over reaction. I looked through the OFCOM overviews and I can't see any reason why a small forum would need to shut down, they just need to do a little work to make sure they're complying. No money needs to be involved from what I can tell.
