I don't come to HN for jokes. Please refrain.

  Some people enjoy jokes regardless of topic. Please tolerate.

    Jokes add noise, preventing the signal of regular discussion. The limited tolerance of jokes here isn't random, it's an effort to protect the importance and screen real estate of substantive discussion.

      Limited tolerance is the key. Zero tolerance would be equally as bad as complete tolerance, IMHO.
