AI has no sense of humor

I tried to get MidJourney to recreate my Barackoli image. This was the prompt:
a portrait of barack obama except his head is a broccoli floret
And got a response that the AI wasn’t sure it was an allowed image. Presumably, it wasn’t sure if this was a disrespectful image of a public figure (not allowed). I reported it to the devs as a miss, and then used the prompt:
a portrait of barack obama except his head is a broccoli floret – barackoli obama, get it?
And that went through. I particularly like the giant shadow Michelle in the corner.
Mine’s better, tho.
