“ Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson were going camping. They pitched their tent under the stars and went to sleep. Sometime in the middle of the night Holmes woke Watson up and said: "Watson, look up at the stars and tell me, what do you see?" Watson replied: "I see millions and millions of stars."

Holmes said: "And what do you deduce from that?"

Watson replied: "Well, if there are millions of stars, and if even a few of those have planets, it's quite likely there are some planets like earth out there. And if there are a few planets like earth out there, there might also be life."

And Holmes said: "Watson, you idiot, it means that somebody stole our tent."

Tally ho. Quick Watson! The game's afoot.

That article, very misleadingly titled "The world's funniest joke" is about a guy who set up a website, LaughLab, not very funny, where he purports to have looked for the funniest joke in the world. The joke is that this article continues to exist.

I am open to a definition that we can all agree on, I'm easy!
