And I took it for "the changing" which is pretty meaningless ...
Thanks for clarification.

What's the difference between a celebrity, a firefighter and a physicist?
For a celebrity, fame is everything.
For a firefighter, flame is everything.
For a physicist, frame is everything.

One more time --- slowly --- and, out loud --- I didn't either --- at first, or second --- but, third time's the "charm."

I still don't get it. Is it supposed to sound out "Another bored irate ..."? Or "A mother board"?

Try sirch enjin - phonetically sound it out

Otherwise you must be making a point unrelated to the 'I do not get it'. Which I do not get...

What's your native language? Maybe "Sir Chenjin" is pronounced differently in some other languages than in English.

Words below each other sound the same, read aloud

Search____engine
SirCh______ enjin

I guess maybe you read j in Chenjine as J in Jacques? This joke assumes you read it as j in jam. Also Ch could be alternatively read as K, Russian kh (letter x in azbuka), or even sh as in Charles (French name) but in this case, it should sound as ch in sandwich.
yeah, this joke is harder to understand for speakers of other languages.

I was going to make some kind of "four crying out loud" pun. But then I realized that there are no angles given and the diagram as labelled cannot be to scale. 10/10, in that case...

An old lady offers her neighbour nuts for free. The man gratefully accepts.
This repeats for a few days and then the man asks:

"Grandma, why do you buy those nuts when you can't eat them? "

" I buy Tofiffee. "

My son appeared this morning wearing a backpack with a shark fin (ref), waving a lightsaber, and claiming to serve the shark side of the force.

I have trained this one well.

This reminds me of the following story.

Once I had a temporary daughter (modern times ...) and when she got bullied by one of her classmates, I taught her to respond something incredibly smart, so the other one would look like an idiot. So she learned by heart a mathematical phrase.

However, I didn't expect her running around on her mom's regular Line Dance event, telling everybody she could get a hold on, that ##\pi## isn't in any Galois extension of ##\mathbb{Q}##. Oh dear ...

Why did the chicken cross the road?

He was stapled to Sid Vicious.

I thought the chicken crossed the road to see their flat mate.
