Lin Kon

When I try to call my friend, I can't get through because my name is Lin Kon, and the operator keeps saying, "Yes, Mr. President."

Listen up, buttercup! The joke here is a play on words. See, the dude's name, "Lin Kon," sounds like "Lincoln." And because Abraham Lincoln used to be the president, the operator thinks this guy is a president too. Get it? Good, now go back to watching cat videos.
