    My favourite language joke:

    What’s the difference between a cat and a comma?

    One’s got claws at the end of its paws, the other’s a pause at the end of a clause

    *fixed order

        yeah doesn’t even work with the classic joke format, in which the words switch places. I’m sure the joke should actually be:

        one has claws at the end of its paws, one denotes a pause at the end of a clause.
