Meta in that context basically means ‘self-referential’, so for example meta-philosophy is philosophizing about the nature of philosophy itself. Here’s part of a definition from Wiki:
 
In epistemology, the prefix meta- is used to mean about (its own category). For example, metadata are data about data (who has produced them, when, what format the data are in and so on). Similarly, metamemory in psychology means an individual's knowledge about whether or not they would remember something if they concentrated on recalling it.HereHere
 
 
Therefore a meta-killing joke is a ‘killing joke’ that refers to Killing Joke. *grin*
 
Made sense in my noggin when I wrote it, then again my noggin might be past its use-by date J

How about "meta-killing joke"? I kinda get it, but not entirely.

NICE!

 

I see your false dichotomy and I raise you an open mind…

 

Not sure if you realise but d'fence was quite a good pun in that context J

 

"Everything is true in some sense, false in some sense, meaningless in some sense, true and false in some sense, true and meaningless in some sense, false and meaningless in some sense, and true, false, and meaningless in some sense."
