About

The best, funniest, and most easily shared jokes are just as relevant to people today as they were a hundred, or even a thousand years ago. But this book isn't about those jokes. As a matter of fact, it's quite the opposite. Dead Jokes: Getting the Lapsed Laugh contains 600 jokes that were once commonly understood but are now artifacts of their own times. Jokes about obsolete technology. Jokes about yesterday's news stories. Jokes about forgotten products. Jokes about culture that isn't the current style anymore.Each joke is given the necessary background and each punchline is explained. No need to go digging through a history book for an explanation, and no worrying about if you will be able to get the joke.Written with mature readers in mind, this book contains both clean jokes and inappropriate jokes. Humor and history aren't always pretty!Come and enjoy a trip through the history of lapsed jokes!
