The whole point is pulling peoples legs, the joke being on the person who doesn't know the language well enough and takes it serious. The answers in the list are the equivalent of telling an apprentice to go get a can of blinker fluid (or Siemens Lufthacken, etc...), which they dutifully do and end up getting laughed at. E.g. just…
