    Almost as good as: “Mankind Older than Previously Believed”

    That is hilarious…

    I suppose, if you got “population” and “people” mixed up, that could be funny.

    The late comedian Mitch Hedberg

    One time, this guy handed me a picture of him, he said,”Here’s a picture of me when I was younger.” Every picture of you is when you were younger. “Here’s a picture of me when I’m older.” “You son-of-a-bitch! How’d you pull that off? Lemme see that camera!”

    “You’re older than you’ve ever been.
    And now you’re even older.
    And now you’re even older.
    And now you’re even older.

    You’re older than you’ve ever been.
    And now you’re even older.
    And now you’re older still.

    TIME! Is marching on.
    And time.. is still marching on.”

    “O.J. Simpson goes to jail” is a contender.
