    Thus kind of joke always reminds me a mathematics joke, for this instance we’re using potatoes.

    Everything in the universe is either a potato or not a potato. The great majority, by far, is not a potato, but at the same time, the majority of things that are not potatoes, when examined very very close, or in really short time intervals, they behave as potatoes and you can use potato techniques on them.

    He’s clearly not a potato. I’m not a potato. We don’t current have potatoes in the pantry. The picture may be of a potato, but a picture is not a potato.
