Do you understand?

Jokes aren’t that funny when you have to dig into an explanation on the nuance of why the hidden meaning doesn’t match the surface meaning in exact degree and proportions. That turns a joke into a pedantic comment. And paradoxically muddies the point by explaining it.

We aren’t morons. We understand that Picasso is doing something on a different level than someone feeding bulk scraped JPGs of paintings into a python script. You really don’t have to explain.
