Make a Spectrum Joke from....

if u switch the m&e at the end of memes : Jokes
If an aspie were telling this, there would be additional data analysis:
the number of vowels, the number of consonants; some whimsy about it being a 4 letter word;
a discussion of the resemblance of the word 'meme' and 'mime;
and an offer to link to additional interesting material on the topics of memes & meme makers.
Where the Word Meme Comes From
'“Meme” was coined by the often controversial evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins in his 1976 book, The Selfish Gene. In it, he states the following:
We need a name for the new replicator, a noun that conveys the idea of a unit of cultural transmission, or a unit of imitation. ‘Mimeme’ comes from a suitable Greek root, but I want a monosyllable that sounds a bit like ‘gene’. I hope my classicist friends will forgive me if I abbreviate mimeme to meme. If it is any consolation, it could alternatively be thought of as being related to ‘memory’, or to the French word même. It should be pronounced to rhyme with ‘cream’.'

I think the joke, unchanged, is the type to interest an aspie.*
What happens after that, is up to the individual aspie.
Note: At no point have I claimed the original joke is hilarious.
It does seem to be a sort of aspie thought, though.
*I thought about it.
No, you do not need to present a syllogism to prove it.
Don't talk to yourself in print.
OK.

A poet, a priest, and a mathematician are discussing whether
it's better to have a wife or a mistress.
The poet argues that it's better to have a mistress
because love should be free and spontaneous.
The priest argues that it's better to have a wife
because love should be sanctified by God.
The mathematician says, "I think it's better to have both.
That way, when each of them thinks you're with the other,
you can do some mathematics."

Math teacher poses this problem to the class.
Tom and Dave play a game with a six sided spinner.
Tom spins the spinner 200 times.
These are the results.
1 - 30 times. 2 - 32 times. 3 - 59 times.
4 - 31 times. 5 - 28 times. 6 - 20 times.
Is this fair?
Aspie kid: 'No, he didn't let Dave have a go.'

Tragedy:
An aspie makes a list of everyone who was in their first grade class. They only come up with 16, but specifically remember there being 17. So they get out their 8th grade yearbook.

Police officer to an aspie driver: “OK, driver’s license, vehicle license, first aid kit and warning triangle.”
Driver: “Nah, I’ve already got all that. But how much for that funny Captain’s cap?“
When I greeted my boss in the morning, he told me to have a good day.
Who am I to argue? So I thanked him and went back home.
I saw a poster today, somebody was asking “Have you seen my cat?” So I called the number and said that I didn’t. I like to help where I can.
Be polite to every aspie you meet. He could be your boss tomorrow.
Do you know how to make an aspie curious?”
“No, how?”
“I’ll tell you tomorrow.”

A young Aspie lady left home for the first time to go to college. After a couple of weeks, she asks a friend for advice on how to do laundry.
"Easy", her friend says, just separate the whites and the colors into different loads."
Later that day, her friend drops in to see how she is doing: "How did the laundry go?"
"Horrible!" she says almost in tears, "I've been at it all day and I'm STILL not finished! I still have to wash the reds, then the greens, then the greys, then the . . . "

An aspie opens a bar. His first two customers walk in; a chemist and an English professor.
The chemist says to the bartender, "I would like a nice tall glass of H2O"
"That sounds good.", replies the English professor, "I would like some H2O too."
