Mexican Magician Disappearance Pun Joke Tumblr Post

This is a screenshot of a popular Tumblr text post featuring a pun-based dad joke and a follow-up user comment. The initial post tells a joke about a Mexican magician who tells his audience he will disappear when he counts to 3. He begins counting in Spanish: "uno, dos...", then vanishes in a puff of smoke before reaching 3, with the punchline reading "He disappeared without a tres". This is a pun playing on the common English phrase "without a trace", as "tres" is the Spanish word for 3, pronounced almost identically to "trace" in English. The follow-up comment below expresses exaggerated frustration at how much the silly, low-brow joke amused the commenter.
