Helmut, it's like the Trabant joke:
Why is a Trabant called a Trabi?
If it were any faster, it would be called a Galoppi!
That joke is only funny to German speakers who understand the play on words (and who know what a Trabant is)

'Cause if you miss the giant freak storm in your backyard, you're obviously playing with your Mindstorms kit.
Oh, man that is so much funnier than my version, I just a few minutes ago (EDIT: Just a few minutes before posting this that is ) bursted out lauging in my family room, and caught my sister's interest . I also think that I had thought of another LEGO MINDSTORMS joke, but I can't remember it.

Because the brick was on the other side.
That's funny (as in "XKCD funny", not "normal person funny").

A horrible joke of mine:
Q: How many NXTs does it take to change a lightbulb?
A: That depends on whether they have light sensors.
Hey, actually, I thought that was pretty funny! Then again, I am VERYsusceptible to laughter. Sometimes I laugh so hard, that I make other people around me laugh.
