We've come so far . . .

The world's oldest recorded joke has been traced back to 1900 BC and . . . get this . . . it’s potty humor. The joke heads up the world’s oldest top 10 joke list published by the University of Wolverhampton and is credited to the ancient Sumerians.

It goes: "Something which has never occurred since time immemorial; a young woman did not fart in her husband's lap."

Granted, I’m not sure it's held up to the test of time . . . but still.
