You can tell it's the first trip, not just because there's only one load of soil on the pile so far, but mostly because he is still enjoying the task.

You can't act like a precise robot that is always right and also beep your red sirens when other people are seeing humor that you don't see. If you're being a robot then chances are you are wrong about the jokes.

In this case the juxtaposition of the natural in-person way of speaking and the unnatural asynchronous text chat if twitter is the source of the humor. When you say that the two scenarios are not similar, that is part of the engine that drives the joke and makes it funny. It's as if you see shutting everyone down for misunderstanding that it was not a sports bar but in fact a metal pipe that the two men walked into when the one man ducked.

what are those three things behind the dude? windows? hanging picture frames? I don't understand what the two angled lines are on the tops of them if they are either of those things.

The superheated instant boiling thing can be mitigated with basically anything in the water.

A teabag, for example.

He kinda looks like Dr. Zaius.

The hardest line of the matrix is when they say "so I will be able to move faster than bullets?" and the other guy responds "nah that won't be necessary"

Are you referring to the pre-before-pre-BC times? The post-BC times do not count as before that so not all of time is pre-BC.

But ultimately yes, that was the joke I was making.

Some think we are using copper that is so old it's from even before the pre-BC times.

Interesting thought, in the context of the flow chart this falls directly into the "God is not all knowing" box.

Imagine how you'd feel if you were a book delivery van driver reading this book and you saw this bookstore delivery van.

Those food based subversion names are all alphabetical. I guess back then they didn't have enough avocados in the code to call it "California style" so they went with "Cupcake."
