German linguistic joke: the definition of "konsequent"

From sci.lang (specifically, this article):

Konsequent heißt: Heute so, morgen so.

Inkonsequent heißt: Heute so, morgen so.

It rather depends on the intonation; roughly, "Konsequent heißt: heute so, morgen so. Inkonsequent heißt: heute so, morgen so."
