In Chinese culture, the number 8 is considered lucky because it sounds similar to the word for "prosperity."
So, "JEST8" could be interpreted as a humorous way of wishing someone good luck or prosperity.

After telling the setup, the punchline is "JEST8," which sounds like "just ate,"

# Sure, here's another possible joke with "JEST8" as the punchline:
Why don't scientists trust atoms?
Because they make up everything!

Setup: The setup is a pun based on the fact that atoms are the building blocks of all matter.
The punchline: After telling the setup, the punchline is "JEST8," which sounds like "just ate."
This implies that the scientists have been consuming or "eating up" the atoms that they don't trust.
