How is this a parody? It’s not poking fun at the original or pointing out its flaws.

quoth wikipedia: “A parody is a creative work designed to imitate, comment on, and/or mock its subject by means of satirical or ironic imitation.” … “The literary theorist Linda Hutcheon said ‘parody … is imitation, not always at the expense of the parodied text.’”

yeah, and that’s not a parody.

It’s not a parody. It’s a homage

It’s not a homage, it’s just the exact same joke.
