It's quite informative.

Needless to say, I'm just joking! <har! har!>

What is "Nickolodeon's Regular Show"? As fate would have it, I've
never watched that channel. BTW, when was the last time that that show
made up a joke about "yo mama" and posted it here for my delectation?
Has it somehow escaped my notice?
