Researchers have traced the world’s oldest joke to what is now Southern Iraq. The joke – which originated in about 1900 BC – really counts as more of saying and goes something like this: “Something which has never occurred since time immemorial; a young woman did not fart in her husband’s lap.” Now, if only we could find someone to explain it… [Reuters]
