You can totally laugh at something you already know tho.

Okay Journathan

Not really how jokes work, but ok

But I do have all the facts. And I find it amusing that someone wrote what appears to be the thoughts of, indeed, someone clueless about the whole thing.
Which, you would be surprised, happens quite often!
For instance my kids know Odysseus as Ulysse, in French. And so they have no idea that an "odyssée" is named after the king of Ithaca and his maritime adventures. It's a mild joke about people knowing a word from one source and, seeing it appear somewhere else, assume a different relationship than what actually happened.

Like if someone discovered that Kleenex is a brand and exclaimed "Wow! I can't believe they can just trademark an everyday word like that!"
Or, "OMG, I can't believe Microsoft invented words ? Bill Gates is such a genius, OMG! But what did we call them in the past?! 🤯"

Go ahead try it.
