The death of joke-telling

Before the Internet, jokes were told face-to-face, but not anymore; now they go viral via e-mail.

I’M TERRIBLE at remembering jokes. If someone tells me a joke in the morning, and even if it’s the most hilarious thing I’ve ever heard, I will have forgotten most or all of it by nightfall. And there’s nothing worse than trying to tell a dinner-time joke that you can only half remember.
