Network Jokes...

So I don't remember where I read this one but it cracks me up:

An LSA type 1 walks into a bar and asks for a beer. The bartender says "here ya go! Sit anywhere you like, but you have to stay in the area"... baDUMtshhhhh...

It made me think, anyone have any other ridiculously nerdy jokes out there?

An IPv4 address walks into a bar, says to bartender “One strong CIDR please I’m exhausted!”

I can't believe there are no jokes about the Ether bunny yet. Wrong time of the year I guess.

When I try to send SYNs to chicks, I don’t get any ACKs. Just FINs and RSTs,

People who tell routing jokes always exceed their time-to-live.

No packet is ever sent into the internet twice, for it's not the same internet and it is not the same packet.

You missed the earlier post but since Thanksgiving is coming up soon I do get concerned that sqrt(-1/64).

OK.... I am now in a part of the Applications team (and if nobody else can fix it the problem comes here).
The first thing I ask my boss on the conference call is "So if they don't talk at layer 7 we don't work with them?"
Everyone laughed. It was my first and last OSI layer joke. Maybe I should get another for Presentation?

This is awesome. I really enjoyed all these jokes. So far the only one I didn't know was the JunOS Haikus. And sorry guys; I had an ethernet joke, but someone else told it at the same time, so I exponentially backed off and tried again.
