It can be joke time now?

In another thread I heard the old "how many lojbanists does it take to
change a broken light bulb" and it got me in a xamselfi'i djica kind of
mood.

Are they any jokes written *in* lojban as opposed to jokes *about* lojban?
(or both)?

Yes, I wrote several, although most require a knowledge of English
as well.. .look in the mail archives for threads I've startedwith
"xajmi" in the title.

Not a lojban original, but much funnier and more easily adaptable in lojban!
This can be better written, but off the top of my head:

za'a pa no lo prenu cu zasti .i jimpe be lo cmacrbaineri .i na jimpe

Actually, I'm pretty sure that's mangled. Probably need something to tie it
all together better. This job is killing me...

Anyway, it's the old joke "There are 10 types of people in this world -
those who understand binary and those who don't." The humor is conveyed
better in lojban because in spoken English, saying "ten" doesn't quite have
that numerical ambiguity that saying "pa no" does.
