Recently a Customer called the automobile Helpline, seeking better knowledge for vehicle operation?

Helpline: "Automotive Helpline, how can I help you?"

Customer: "My car ran fine for a week, and now it won't go anywhere!"

Helpline: "Is the gas tank empty?"

Customer: "Huh? How do I know?"

Helpline: "There's a little gauge on the front panel, with a needle, and markings from 'E' to 'F'. Where is the needle pointing?"

Customer: "I see an 'E' but no 'F'."

Helpline: "You see the 'E,' and just to the right is the 'F'.

Customer: "No, just to the right of the first 'E' is a 'V'.

Helpline: "A 'V'?"

Customer: "Yeah, there's a 'C', an 'H', the first 'E', then a 'V', followed by 'R', 'O', 'L' ?"

Helpline: "No, no, no sir! That's the front of the car. When you sit behind the steering wheel, that's the panel I'm talking about."

Customer: "That steering wheel thingy? is that the round thing that honks the horn?"

Helpline: "Yes, among other things."

Customer: "The needle's pointing to 'E'. What does that mean?"

Helpline: "It means that you have to visit a gasoline vendor and purchase some more gasoline. You can install it yourself, or pay the vendor to install it for you."

Customer: "What? I paid $12,000 for this car! Now you tell me that I have to keep buying more components? I want a car that comes with everything built in!"

Yes it is, however that doesn't make it funny.

For instance, you can't make a pumpkin appear a dove just by calling it that..

Carrot Top is a famous comedian, yet I don't find him funny. Does that mean he doesn't make jokes?
