Largest Internet Joke Vote

 

LaughLab, an Internet experiment into humor, was conducted by psychologist Richard Wiseman, University of Hertfordshire, Hatfield, Hertfordshire, UK, and the British Association for the Advancement of Science. Running from September 2001 to October 2002, the project collected over 40,000 jokes submitted from the worldwide public, and around 2 million votes were cast on what was the funniest.

 

The winning joke, as voted for on www.laughlab.co.uk, was:

 

A couple of New Jersey hunters are out in the woods when one of them falls to the ground. He doesn't seem to be breathing, his eyes are rolled back in his head. The other guy whips out his cell phone and calls the emergency services. He gasps to the operator: “My friend is dead! What can I do?” The operator, in a calm soothing voice says: “Just take it easy. I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead.” There is a silence, then a shot is heard. The guy's voice comes back on the line. He says: “OK, now what?"

another one from the site:

 

A dog went to a telegram office, took out a blank form and wrote:

 

“Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof.”

 

The clerk examined the paper and politely told the dog: “There are only nine words here.

 

You could send another ‘Woof’ for the same price.”

 

“But,” the dog replied, “that would make no sense at all.”
