aHAhahahahaah.  "It's a good joke!  I can prove it!"  I thought the joke alone was hilarious. :)

Now that I know what cantor's diagonal is, it's better.

It gives a mildly lame math joke and when the guy doesn't think it's funny, the mathematician responds "I'll prove that it's funny!", meaning "prove" like he'd prove a theorem.

I don't really want to write another essay, so I'll delegate the task to wikipedia:

Towelie -- if you don't get the joke(s), then the overall irony should be funny. The fact that a computer is making a lame math joke, much to the distress of the tech, while meanwhile the nerdy people are laughing! So basically, me posting this comic here is essentially to make fun of Sidoh and Ender. THAT'S funny! :)
