    Is this for real or some AI-generated chicanery, because I just don’t know any more? 😩

      There’s no such thing as modern humor. It’s just the same humor in a modern context. Humans are oddly good at thinking they are smarter and better than previous generations. We’re not. We’ve been exactly the same for thousands of years.

        True, but AI can also easily fake things, so it’s a reasonable question these days.

        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.
