# Okay, the word joke is used very loosely.
The "in" bit refers to that cat.

Edit: I see that "standing cat" isn't just a b3ta thing, it seems that other parts of the interwebs found it funny. Well I never.

# so by that logic..any picture used by more than 1 b3tan shouldn't be front paged
no more smug bloke
no more Clive
no more the 3 face memes of doom...

# Paddington Bear (a classic British cultural icon)
amusingly photoshopped with Standing cat which has been a popular internet image since 2008

How is any of that an in-joke?

# I hadn't seen standing cat until he recently popped up here.
Also I seem to have misinterpreted what an in-joke is.

# "something that means nothing to someone outside of a close knit circle"
Unlike this which is simply a funny picture whether you know who standing cat or even Paddington is.

# I'm sorry, I didn't find it funny.
Many others did. Nothing to see here, move along.
