Maybe it fits better in RT. Or maybe it's just bad enough to not even qualify as a lame joke. Do I get a trophy for that? :).
RT?

Do you remember that time, before the internet, when we thought that all this collective stupidity was due to a lack of access to information?

Well, that wasn't it.

We had a crew over to do some work on our house. Three guys and a dog piled out of the truck.

Me: "What's with the dog?"

Guy: "Oh, that's Buddy. He likes to come along and help us out. Hope you don't mind having him around."

Me: "Sure, no problem. What does he do?"

Guy: "Let's ask him... what do you want to work on today, Buddy? Speak!"

Buddy: "Roof, roof!"

As Equador is at the equator you actually do lose some weight flying there. Up to 0.3% depending on where you come from.

They had euros in 1960?

I could have left the DM, but I didn't want to discuss currencies. Especially as € have been introduced (1999) three years before people actually have had the coins and bills (2002). So which currency should I have used for the years 1999 and 2000 in the joke?

Since the currency was changed by a constant factor, it is for an audience of mostly physicists only a change of units.

And ...

... there is an even more severe mistake than the currency units! Who finds it? And no, the misspellings are intended.
