"No puedes simplemente tomar algo, ponerlo en un contexto diferente y esperar que sea gracioso."

Simplified Meaning:

When you take a joke or a funny story and put it in a different situation, it might not seem funny anymore. For example, a joke about the weather might be funny when you're talking with friends on a rainy day. But if you told the same joke at a serious meeting at work, people might not laugh. They might find it out of place or even rude. Humor depends a lot on the situation, the people, and the timing. So, understanding when and where to use a joke is very important. This can help you connect better with others and avoid misunderstandings.
