As an ESL teacher, I can tell you that that's actually a pretty common and endearing misunderstanding among non-native speakers, right up there with "I work hardly", and "I'm running late"/ "that's ok, you don't need to run. :)"

When my mom goes into Asian or Mexican grocery stores she inevitably says something like "how much is it going to run if I buy xyz" to which I have to gently remind her that probably doesn't translate to "how much will this cost" but is taken literally

I once had to deal with code where the developer used the naming convention "A", "B", "C"..... "AA", "AB", "AC" etc for everything, variables and functions. In the order he created them, regardless of what they were for or did. And he didn't comment any of it.

So it all looked like
function BC(BD, BE) {
BF = 3.14159265
BG = BD + BE * BF
return BG
}
This screams to me "copy the whole codebase and start mashing the refactor button".

Agreed. @dril's "Buddy," is an all-timer, too, but this one is eight years old and still lives in my mind as one of the funniest single sentences ever written.

This isn't far off from what code obfuscated by proguard looks like when you decompile it. I can't imagine having to read it and understand what it's doing without using some dynamic analysis tool like Frida.

See, I don't like this one because I sow a lot and I reap, or at least harvest, a lot, and sowing is hard work and harvesting is eating delicious things.

That's the joke. It's about someone who sows poorly and having a ball doing nothing, then when reaping has nothing and they're like "wtf where's all the poo poo I was supposed to have?"

Alternately it's about someone who sows poorly or indiscriminately and reaps a damaged or even toxic harvest and is moribund about it.

Flushing with the lid up aerosolizes the toilet water and deposits a small but measurable sheen of its contents on basically everything in the bathroom.

I love the "___ With Will" sketches but this joke always threw me, I'm not sure I get it. Is his psycho father using the 'holes' as an excuse to whip his belt out and hit Will with it?

Anyway, good idea to suss out if a friend had a lovely childhood/abusive parent before showing them this sketch. I swear, I have bad luck showing people comedy stuff.
