Fable nails the Oct 31 = Dec 25 mathematician joke, flops at originality
DiracDeltaFunk · x · 2026-09-20
A user shared a surprisingly good joke from the Fable model: "Why do mathematicians confuse Halloween and Christmas? Because Oct 31 = Dec 25" (octal 31 = decimal 25).
Commenters noted it's a classic rather than an original, and the model's attempts at genuinely new jokes fell flat — still, the fluent delivery is a fun little demo.
