This Joke was judged to be the funniest joke in the world by the British Association for the Advancement of Science but i don't think this is really funny.Am i missing some thing ? Famed fictional detective Sherlock Holmes and his gruff assistant Doctor Watson pitch their tent while on a camping expedition, but in the middle of the night Holmes nudges Watson awake and questions him. HOLMES: Watson, look up at the stars and tell me what you deduce. WATSON: I see millions of stars, and if there are millions of stars, and if even a few of those have planets, it is quite likely there are some planets like earth, and if there are a few planets like earth out there there might also be life. HOLMES: Watson, you idiot! Somebody stole our tent.
