    The whole premise of the analogy is that the typed characters are random, which is why the animal in it is one that doesn’t understand written English. The point being that over an infinite amount of time, even totally random typing will, by definition, eventually produce any specified sequence.

    OOP doesn’t get it, nor does anyone who finds this clever.

        Struck a nerve, huh?

        It’s like writing a joke based on the premise that exercise makes you gain weight. It doesn’t, so any joke based on that is going to fall flat, except for people who think it does, lol.

          You spend calories (energy) on exercises and therefore loose weigh (mass) in that process immediately. But that process also breaks protein molecules in your muscles and in heavier workloads it results in your body rebuilding those muscles with sort of muscle scars that will get bigger than the original muscles was and that will eventually lead to weight gain in longer time span. Or do you deny the existence of bodybuilding entirely?

      There is nobody here that doesn’t understand the premise of the original thought… It does not invalidate a joke about evolved monkeys.
