jarfil,

It’s not a joke if it specifies a procedure to solve a real-world problem.

RFC 2549 is a joke, RFC 1149 is almost a joke (basically a spec for a sneakernet, XKCD What If 31 ), RFC 2324 is mostly a joke but also an example of IoT… and a similar thing goes for all of these:

Even the ones most intended as a joke, have some grain of usefulness in them.
