Thanks for the clarification. Purely based on the original comment, I had the impression that the pieces wouldn't fit together as well anymore or the designs would more easily fall apart.

JPEG stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group. So by the other user's logic, you shouldn't be using the hard /p/ sound.

Mobius: Knock Knock

Brad: Who's there?

Mobius: Brad

Brad: Brad who?

Mobius: That's show business

This is a bit of an old joke but the humour comes from two layers.

The first layer comes from the last two lines. Brad is a famous actor, so probably a household name. So the expectation is that nobody would ask who he was in the same way nobody would ask "Beyonce who?" But Hollywood is fickle and stars today can easily become forgotten tomorrow. Pretending not to know a celebrity is an insult that is associated with this nature of Hollywood. Hence the "That's show business line" where the jokester acts like they're reluctantly agreeing that the celebrity isn't famous anymore. This is extra hurtful since the famous person is the one tricked into saying "...(their own name) who?"

The second layer comes from the expectation of the structure of a regular knock knock joke. Since this joke doesn't follow that structure, it breaks expectations and creates humour.

Mainly it's the first part though.

+1 for Pocket Casts. I've only ever had problems with Pocket Cast in the last few weeks. Luckily they released an update a few days ago that fixed the issues.

Episode 6 Return of the Jedi

It's a deleted scene that had Jabba the Hutt preparing himself for Leia by slathering butter all over himself

Welcome! If you need to charge your phones, note that this house has Yokohama wiring, but we have Nagoya and Shikoku adapters available.

You can leave at any time through the door over there. It's a shoji door, so you'll need to find a compatible knob. No, don't be silly, that one is a fusuma knob! Of course it won't fit.

Knowing what the different States are and different cities (for the title text) is pretty important. As someone who is from outside the United States, I wouldn't've been surprised if "Pennsylvania Wiring" was really a standard of wiring.
