The major British study on humour has concluded its first part, and has now
unveiled The World's Funniest Joke (tm)
And here it is:
Famed fictional detective Sherlock Holmes and his gruff assistant Doctor
Watson pitch their tent while on a camping expedition, but in the middle of
the night Holmes nudges Watson awake and questions him.
HOLMES: Watson, look up at the stars and tell me what you deduce.
WATSON: I see millions of stars, and if there are millions of stars, and if
even a few of those have planets, it is quite likely there are some planets
like earth, and if there are a few planets like earth out there might also
be life.
HOLMES: Watson, you idiot! Somebody stole our tent.
Apparantly, this was the funniest joke out of 10,000 submitted. Good to
know what the funniest joke in the world is.
