9. Sophie Duker: Don't knock threesomes. Having a threesome is like hiring an intern to do all the jobs you hate.

The full list of ten.

I wasn't that impressed with any of them to be honest, in fact, I thought most of them were old ones. The one you mentioned and the Fed-ex were the easily the best of the bunch. But then, humour is subjective...

1) I expect the humour was thoroughly wokewashed.

2) Are you American? ;-)

We must make allowances for the fact that this came from the UK. Their sense of humour* is different from most of the rest of the world.

As an American, there are a number of British comics I find to be very funny. It's also quite clear that none of them contributed to this list of, at best, mildly amusing jokes.

It would appear so...

Personally, I think the problem is that people no longer go for the craic but purely to say they have been. A bit like most major music festivals these days. It's all about the Insta and Fbook pictures and less about enjoying the music.

If those were the ten best then I'm glad I saved my money and stayed home.

The time machine and 'my house' jokes were quality, but there was a lot of "Meh."
