        Why wouldn’t it be funny if it was obvious? Most funny jokes are obvious, at least after the punchline.

          It’s double entendre, deriving from certain associations with Thailand. If one is in the know, one can read the meme as implying a rather implausible story. There is a humorous twist, but it would be rather dull if spelled out. This way, one derives satisfaction from decoding the meme, and knowing oneself to belong to the in-group.
