Can someone explain for a non-native speaker?
- Iona Lake sounds like "I own a lake"
  
  I grew up with a school called "iona college" and you best believe we made this joke every 2 seconds
  
  Hahaha I didn't get it thanks
- Can someone explain it to the native speaker too
- I beleive its: her name is 'Iona Lake' Could be heard as 'Im on a lake', bragging about how she is spending her time on a lake.
  
  "Iona" is pronounced like "I own a" - so "I own a lake."
- I'm a native speaker. This "meme" is a shitpost.
You think that’s impressive? Look over here https://youtu.be/fhmeYoJZeOw?si=dWDTpYUrv0ccu5VK
