I dreamed this one:
I bought a tin of rat poison.  In the small print it said "Rat Not Included."

  2. Um, is that the punchline for which we have to guess the joke, Z? That'd be an interesting game.
    At school in the fifties, there was a running non-joke which worked as follows: jokes would have numbers. Someone would say 'number 59' and everyone would fall about. Someone else would offer 'number 12' and hilarity would ensue. Then I'd try 'number 42', and get blanked without a laugh. It explains a lot now. But I have the last laugh, because 42 is actually the funniest joke in the universe (so far).

    Trouble is we couldn't find it.

    Are Q&A Gags actually 2 liners?
