Malta
"The Republic of Malta is a small and densely populated island nation consisting of an archipelago of seven islands in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea." The previous sentence is copied straight from wikipedia's article on Malta, where you can find actual and (presumedly) factual information on the country.
More importantly to RPGWW, posters Daien, Redfox, and Kadrin brought to light its existence to the community at large. After going to our reference books to locate the country on the world map, we became slightly more educated. Soon, a new breed of injoke appeared, centering on this new topic.
The Theorem of MaLOLta postulates that the only Malta jokes which have any humour value must originate by one of the aforementioned three posters, or another person of Maltese origins.
Daien01: ADAM! WE HAVE INVENTED BOOKS! THENinjaRabbi: YOU HAVE? Daien01: YES! THENinjaRabbi: HOW MANY YEARS DID IT TAKE? Daien01: I DON'T KNOW. A FEW HUNDRED? THENinjaRabbi: WHAT WILL YOU DO WITH YOUR NEWFOUND POWER? Daien01: WRITE! THENinjaRabbi: WOW! Daien01: REALLY! IT'S LIKE.... YOU SEE.... Daien01: YOU PUT YOUR PEN ON THE PAPER, RIGHT? AND MOVE IT ALONG IT? Daien01: AND ... THE MARK REMAINS THERE! THENinjaRabbi: AMAZING! THENinjaRabbi: WHAT'S NEXT FOR MALTA? THENinjaRabbi: COMPUTERS? Daien01: WE GOT THEM. BUT ONLY FROM FRANCE. THEY SURRENDERED THEM TO US.
Other related jokes:
- Maltan - It took a while for the unenlightened to learn the proper adjective, Maltese, over the assumed Maltan. This caused Daien to flip out. This amused, and caused further usage of the incorrect terminology.
- Malta is small! - Lol, small.
- Malta has a population of 3 - Relating to the previous, and in conjunction with the fact that RPGWW has never seen more than 3 posters from Malta at a time.
