That's from 1998, so it's historical humor.

5. A final decided by a weird rule.
6. First time in cricket, a team won a match neither by runs nor wickets, but by a rule.
The final ended in an "oopse". Seriously.

That is one of the jokes that only works when told like that. If you try to include a literal quote (from the wife complaining) it fails because "You don't buy me flowers" and "you don't buy my flowers" are different.
It works in certain dialects.

Yes, when spoken, but not when written down.

Careful, your post may inspire more lame age jokes. To wit:

"I am so old my printer writes in cuneiform."
"Uses only the finest Babylonian mud, from Ur!"

That joke is so old as to be Urbane, our archeologists are so busy uncovering and deciphering the equivalent of Sumerian texting networks, and with the way the Sumerians were about copying records the archaeologists get upset when they come across whole troves that are nothing but Spam!

Have to admit, they did not update near as fast as Microsoft...

I have read somewhere that the oldest joke they have ever found, indeed in Mesopotamia, was about a fart.

I wish there was a dislike button, because this isn't lame and it doesn't belong here.(Actually, I clicked the Like).

From Gene Weingarten this weekend.
Into a bar walked a lady named Sondra.
Her face was angelic, her body spelled trouble.

She said to the barkeep, "I'll have an entendre,
.. And, come to think of it, make it a double."

No thinker was he -- he was more of a doer.
So the barkeep just smiled ... and then gave it to her.

A mouth in motion tends to stay in motion unless a saturation force acts on it.
