We're the anti-meme community where the joke is that there isn't one, and by explaining that, we've ruined the whole thing, but we all find the collective misery hilarious.

The music of comedy is more important than the joke itself.

Follow the instance rules please, this is a lovely instance.

No, the t isn't silent. It's just a Japanese sound. Tsu (つ) is the character, and there is a "T" sound in there. The TS sound is the same one at the end of "that's" or "its".

English speakers just say it wrong.
