Hmm, all very well and good, and usually most people can take a well meant joke and laugh with it, that is until someone then finds it deeply offensive or hurtful or harmful to their lively hood then its suddenly not quite so funny any more. In today's, ip logged, globally litigious world, personally I'd be very careful about defaming anyone on purpose, these things seem like a good idea at the time, but they can actually cost big time.
That said, there has to be a joke about 'Gao's' there somewhere! :) lol.
