On the off-chance that that wasn’t also a joke (if it was, I like it!), let me be less terse.

SDMB pages are “active” (or maybe the term is “responsive”, I forget) and don’t load all the content at once: if you scroll to the bottom, it notices and loads more. Except that doesn’t always seem to happen. So if you want to see if someone already made the joke, you have to hit repeatedly until it loses interest, then search. Yes, there’s a site search, but from my phone it wasn’t clear how to search just this topic (I see it now on the PC). So I thought I’d searched the whole thing, but hadn’t, and thus reposted the joke.

At least my version was 10 words including the punchline!
