This is, as far as I can tell, *exactly* how the Real World functions.

They missed the bit in business where he patents it straight away so that
nobody can copy his idea.
Or the bit where it shows a load of people immediately benefiting from his
work.

And I myself, if arrogantly and ignorantly, have often thought after developing
a complex algorithm in povray, that were I university prof I could have gotten a
conference trip out of this.

Is God willing to prevent phrogams, but not able?
Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing, to prevent phrogams?
Then he is malevolent.

This must be the most obscure joke ever: http://xkcd.com/532/
It's a reference to a joke which in itself requires a bit of smart to
understand. (Of course if you don't know the joke, that xkcd strip is
virtually impossible to get.)

I remember giggling for an hour when that first came out.
I'll also note I tend to laugh first in the movie theatre, usually a good 30
seconds before the joke is done being set up. The whole Mel Brooks "hit
them over the head with it" humor does nothing for me.
