    This joke always bugs me because it’s a spoken conversation in the context of the joke. He would say “what’s an Ery?”

      I also think this joke doesn’t work very well when spoken, but it is what it is

      You have to imagine Robin has a Japanese accents so he pronounces the double consonants: bat-tery.

    That’s funny because it was kind of an old joke made in Brazilian Portuguese and I’ve been seeing a lot lately. I wonder if a fellow Brazilian translated the joke.

      Probably a stupid question, but did they have to change the original joke for it to translate into English? I don’t know any Portuguese, just curious if the play on “battery” works in both languages

    There’s a company in Winnipeg, Manitoba, called “Battery Man”. Which is funny on a lot of levels. They lean into batman symbols a lot. But also, Manitoba is often abbreviated as Man (historically it was our postal abbreviation and such).
