A dog walks into a bar and says, ‘I cannot see a thing. I’ll open this one.’

I Googled this, read about it, and then found a Reddit thread where two historian/Sumerologists get into a discussion about the potential meaning.

Maybe it is we who are the joke.

I just love that "x walks into a bar" is such a universal joke format. Even if we don't know why it was funny.
