    This is totally OT, but wft.

    So, there are these 2 homosexual computer programmers.

    The first says to the second - "Do you want the key to my heart?"

    The second says - "No, I just want your ASCII".

    Get it? ASCII? lol ...

    OK. Its pretty bad. But, wtf, its not the worst joke you've ever heard.
