“How do hedge fund workers jerk off?”/“They give it a short squeeze.”

The GameStop short squeeze resulted in this riddle on Reddit—Jokes on January 28, 2021:
   
Q: How do hedge fund workers jerk off?
A: They give it a short squeeze.
 
“How do hedge fund workers masturbate? They give it a short squeeze” was posted on Twitter by Cristian Mihai on January 28, 2021. “Short squeeze” is a financial term that sounds like a sexual one.
 
 
Wikipedia: Short squeeze   
In the stock market, a short squeeze is a rapid increase in the price of a stock owing primarily to technical factors in the market rather than underlying fundamentals. A short squeeze can occur when there is a lack of supply and an excess of demand for the stock due to short sellers covering (liquidating) their positions.
         
Wikipedia: GameStop short squeeze 
In January 2021, a short squeeze of GameStop stock and other securities took place on various stock exchanges causing major financial consequences for certain hedge funds. The short squeeze increased the stock price of GameStop, a video-game retailer, almost 190 times from its record low, hitting a high of nearly $500 per share on January 28, 2021, and causing large losses for short sellers
