    this is the oldest known recorded joke in human history, c. 1900 b.c. sumeria:

    "something which has never occurred since time immemorial; a young woman did not fart in her husband's lap."

    egypt, 1600 b.c.:

    "how do you entertain a bored pharaoh? You sail a boatload of young women dressed only in fishing nets down the Nile and urge the pharaoh to go catch a fish."

    anglo-saxon, c. 1000 a.d.:

    "what hangs at a man's thigh and wants to poke the hole that it's often poked before? answer: a key."
