By this point in your education you should be aware that you should not publish the last term used by Jack. If you have a serious question pertaining to the word, spell it the way - f***k.

You forgot to include the joke.

It's so contrived as to be not funny. It can only be improved by not telling it.

The final line has been missed out... What you saw was an incomplete version. Now it has been edited.

I'm not sure what you meant about it being incomplete. The version above is the one I was originally commenting on. Which one is the "last line that has been added" (the punchline)? If it's the explanation about "Mo Yan means Can't Say when translated" then it really still isn't funny. It would have been funny if the winner of the Nobel prize had been called "Kant Zay" or something similar but for the pun to only be a pun in a foreign language is pointless.
