I once quoted this movie to some students I was TAing, and They didn’t get it. I was like " this movie came out in like 2000. How do you not get it?" And then there was a long pause when one of them replied " I was 4 years old"

    Yeah, like two whole seconds! But it gets the message across that “this is a very simple search”. Besides he already had a serious comment, and he was literally trying to make a joke, so I did the same thing.

      That’s fair. I’ll concede that I thought they were originally asking a sincere question. People can have eclectic senses of humor, and I admit I don’t always get them.
