Ah yes, farting is very funny.

[-] stoicmaverick@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

The oldest joke we have a record of as a species is a fart joke. This is my favorite factoid of all time, maybe ever.

maybe ever.

Would you say: since time immemorial?

One could, yes.

Fun fact: Norman Mailer coined the word factoid in 1973. He wrote:

"[Factoids are] facts which have no existence before appearing in a magazine or newspaper, creations which are not so much lies as a product to manipulate emotion in the Silent Majority."

In other words, a factoid is a clickbait "alternative" fact.

Interesting. I always took the term to indicate a single fact in isolation, in contrast to major dates or things that could be considered part of a curriculum.
