The eternal paradox of Emacs: a text editor so powerful it requires you to grow a beard while learning it. The joke is brilliant because it's painfully true - Emacs has such a steep learning curve that the longer you procrastinate starting, the more of your remaining lifespan it'll consume. It's like telling someone "this workout takes 10 years, so you better start at age 5." Meanwhile, Vim users are smugly nodding while pretending their editor doesn't have the same problem.
