I don't think this is a joke.

I'm pretty sure it's spelled "ignourant," you dirty rebel.

My guess is that it's about Brits tending to stick "u's" in places where Americans don't (like "colour" or "favour").

My guess is that it's about Yanks tending to remove "u's" in places where Britons don't (like "colour" or "favour").
