    I used to work with this super cool dude from Ghana. One day he said “you youngins think you invented comedy, take a listen of this” and it was oldies music twisted to be full of dirty jokes.

    It blew my mind, but it also hammered in a fundamental understanding - people are people, always have been. Weird Al is great, but he just continued a timeless tradition

      Some of the oldest jokes we have are fart jokes. Or a confusing one involving a dog walking into a bar.
