See there? That wasn't even math and you made it look easy.

Reminds me of an old joke. A guy gets a flat in front of an insane asylum (excuse the politically incorrect term - OLD joke). He takes off the lug nuts and puts them in the hub cap, but leaves them a little too close to the road. A car comes wide around a corner and hits his hub cap scattering his lug nuts everywhere. He searches and searches, but can't find them. He sits down and says "what the heck am I going to do now?" Then he hears a voice from inside the fence of the asylum, "just take one lug nut off each of the other three wheels and use them to bolt the spare on." The guy says, "that's amazing!" "I never would have thought of that!" "How did YOU come up with such an idea?" The asylum resident says, "I'm in here because I'm crazy, not stupid!"

My joke begins there but diverts a bit.... (and while having ZERO to do with lugs, the joke isn't complete without nuts...)

But he hears the most amazing music coming from within... So he walks into a garden to find a choir of patients dressed in white, tapping apples in their hands
to keep time as they sang the sirens' songs.

"This is amazing!" he says to the director. "They should be on the circuit! What is the name of the group?"

"Well, isn't it obvious? They're the Moron, Tap an Apple Choir!"

OMG...I feel awful as I laugh my a$$ off..and it's worse if you actually speak it out vs reading it in your head...it made me laugh even worse.
