    My D&D group were just talking about Nvidia buying Arm

    I mentioned that this might affect Arm's pirating hardware, the Arm-80

    I was about to tell this joke, but then it seems like Wikipedia beat me to it:

    I few parodies of other wiki articles in there too.

    So, I'm right now taking whatever absurdist humor I can find in my life, because the past few days have been miserable and filled with the details of unwinding someone's life. And I had one of those moments when I went to the cemetery to purchase the plot for my mother in law. As I was looking at one of the sites, I looked over, and there was a giant memorial stone centered around what was clearly a family plot - this stone was about as tall as I am (6'3"), dwarfing all the other headstones in the area. And on it, in letters that were a good foot and a half tall was carved the family name, for all and sundry to see - the family name being "Meek".

    Yes, it was basically a giant carved piece of stone, with "MEEK" front and center in giant letters.

    My only thought upon seeing it was "ah, this is irony, carved in stone for generations to come."

    As soon as I started to write this post to ask you to explain the joke my brain finally kicked in with a, "What is the ONE goddamned thing everyone knows about Sherlock Holmes? "He investigates mys-oh. Ohhhh" "Also Data says it on Star Trek" "Good catch, brain"

    I can’t recall if it’s the line “the game’s afoot” or “elementary, my dear Watson” or both that never appears in a Conan Doyle-authored Sherlock Holmes work.

    IIRC they come entirely from one of the TV or film adaptations and yet they are indelibly linked to the property now.

    it's the elementary one. which is technically true because he never said that exact phrase, but he did describe a case to Watson as elementary

    holmes did say the game is afoot, but he was also quoting Shakespeare (natch) so he probably shouldn't get credit for that either

    See, I went from "There's a mystery afoot!" to remembering the game line. And I don't know if anyone has ever said that

    I stared at it for a long time trying to decipher what language “cluedo” translated from since I’d never heard the word in any language I was familiar with.

    Oh well, some gags just don’t work for some people.

    I’m already sick of hearing Sherlock lines in my head over and over now.

  • SirToastySirToasty Registered User regular
    Cluedo is apparently the name of the game in the UK. The name is based on Ludo which is a variant of Pachisi (Parcheesi, Sorry!, etc.) in the UK.
