[edit] Dodgy "joke"

The apparently funny joke was: "This idea is captured in the well-known mathematical joke, "What do you call a man hanging himself while masturbating where everyone who watches on one side sees his group inverse element watching on the other side?" The answer, of course, is an automorphism conjugation autoerotic asphyxiation.". I fail to see how this is either funny, or relevant! Taken out, unless people see something in it I don't...
