I don't have any understanding of P vs NP past the colloquial explanation of it, but it occurred to me that it is essential that P ≠ NP for comedy to function. For almost all comedy to work it relies on a "punchline" that is not easily predicted but, once revealed, can be easily and near instantly interpreted by the audience. When a punchline is too easy to predict (or "calculate") the joke falls flat.
I don't know if anyone actually finds this an interesting topic to discuss, and perhaps someone who knows more about the P vs NP problem can enlighten me, but I thought if there is ever a place to share this thought it would be here.
