Linguine (also spelled 'Linguini') is a form of pasta — flat like fettuccine and trenette. It's wider than spaghetti but not as wide as fettuccine.

Younger Than Yesterday is the fourth album by the American rock band The Byrds and was released in February 1967 on Columbia Records (see 1967 in music). The album saw the band continuing to integrate elements of psychedelic rock into their music, a process they had begun on their previous LP.

A joke is a question, short story, or depiction of a situation made with the intent of being humorous. To achieve this end, jokes may employ irony, sarcasm, word play and other devices. Jokes may have a punchline that will end the sentence to make it humorous.
A practical joke or prank differs from a spoken one in that the major component of the humour is physical rather than verbal (for example placing salt in the sugar bowl).
Purpose
Jokes are typically for the entertainment of friends and onlookers. The desired response is generally laughter; when this does not happen the joke is...

I got my Epic badge (50 days at or over rep cap) on EL&U.SE when my reputation page showed only 43 days (not a precise number, I don't recall exactly but it was around that). In other words, the last line of the page showed:
earned at least 200 reputation on 43 days
In fact, in order to...
The reputation report now has a clearer description:
rep cap was reached via rep from upvotes *only* on 13 days
earned at least 200 reputation on 11 days
So "rep cap was reached" means exactly what it says, you actually capped.
The second line now accurately indicates "200+" rep on those day...
