Ideally, inside it would have a men’s sauna.

    The problem is it requires certain foreknowledge. Rare at that.

    It’s like me telling my Linux nerd jokes to my family.

      So can someone explain it in detail so that we poor ignoramuses (ignorami?) can at least figure out what the joke is supposed to actually be? Because even with the “explanation” above it … I don’t see what is intended to be funny.

      I guess this is an “explain like I’m five” moment.

        Mens sana (men’s sauna) means “healthy mind”.

        “Inside the healthy body is a healthy mind.”

        Word play explained unravels the joke, and leaves it flat.
