"Ok, I am about to send the TCP joke. It will last 10 seconds, it has two characters, it does not have a setting, it ends with a punchline."
"Ok, I am ready to get your TCP joke that will last 10 seconds, has two characters, does not have an explicit setting, and ends with a punchline."
"I'm sorry, your connection has timed out. Hello, would you like to hear a TCP joke?"
This one is the only one among the 10+ I browsed through on the website and read in the comments that actually made me laugh. Good one! Thanks for sharing. :)
I was asked in an interview to explain the difference between TCP and UDP.
I knew about enough to fill an index card: enough for an adequate interview answer, but not enough that I would relish getting follow-up questions.
While deciding what to say I started with this joke. The interviewer laughed and moved on to the next question. I got the job offer.

An SQL Query walks into a bar and sees two table....he says "Mind if I join you?"
I used this during a "geeky jokes" icebreaker at work. No one got the joke so I just sounded condescending. Lesson learned.
I can tell you a DNS joke, but be aware that it might take 8 hours for everyone to get it.
DNS is slow? or you mean domain updates
I've updated the joke, refresh on your end.
This was out of order.
Well played
packets udp bar walk a into
ok this might sound crazy, but at first I completely missed the joke because it automatically rearranged the entire sentance into udp packets walked into a bar. I wonder how that works psychologically.

I'd share my joke about HTTP here, but it makes me feel insecure.

Mix it with TLS joke

There are two kinds of people when it comes to UDP.
Which are those?
Btw, it reminds me of "10 kinds of people, those who understand binary and those who don't"
There are 11 kinds of people that understand binary. Those that understand binary, those that don't understand binary, and those that understand grey code.
those who get it, and ...

UDP
we all P

There was list of such jokes for 40+ protocols, past and present, but I cannot find it anymore, only small part on different blogs and forums :(

What did one broke programmer say to the other?
"Hey, buddy, can you paradigm?"
I think I prefer the punchline “I don’t expect you to get it, and it’s not a big deal if you don’t, happens to everyone”
Put a cork in it.
