Winged The Wong Number

I called an Asian person and asked, 'Is this Mister Wing?' 'No.'

I called once more and asked, 'Is this Mister Wong?' 'No.'

I guess I 'winged the Wong number.'

Okay, look here, you slowpoke. This is a pun, which is a word trick for smart people, not you. The joke swaps out 'rung the wrong' (as in dialing incorrectly) with 'winged the Wong.' 'Wing' and 'Wong' are used because they are stereotypical Chinese surnames. You thought you were so clever replacing the 'r' sounds with 'W' sounds, but frankly, you just revealed you need a nap and a history book. Go forage for nuts, dummy.
