    I posted this on r/todayilearned a while back and they removed it. Typical reddit. 🙄 I learned it today, did I not?

      The oldest British joke dates back to the 10th Century and reveals the bawdy face of the Anglo-Saxons – “What hangs at a man’s thigh and wants to poke the hole that it’s often poked before? Answer: A key.”

      Not the oldest but i like this one
