Not really, since the joke is based on the idea that it wasn’t really the first camera.



I don't get that.

Somebody created the meme saying “making of the world’s first camera”. Somebody commented “which camera took the picture of the world’s first camera?” This meme added that comment to the original meme, obviously pointing out that this couldn’t be the making of the world’s first camera if there is a photo of it. It’s not rocket science.

I guess it was the "Making" the first camera that I missed. I thought if it were the first camera someone could have photographed it later with another camera. But if it were just being made, it couldn't.

The dinosaur or the dinosaur egg?


Going back in time far enough Possibly the Sponge: Sponges are monoecious (hermaphroditic), which means that one individual can produce both gametes (eggs and sperm) simultaneously. Then it gets weird...

Question: "What came first, the chicken or the egg?

My dad had an astute answer for this, "the Rooster!"

Thanks Mel. When I have a rare moment to spare, I get silly! I hope I never grow up!

Superfly TNT, Thanks for having my back on this one. It is apparent that some of our fellow UHH members have no real sense of humor. In your many post; you hit it right on the head. Thanks again for your support. I've been a member of UHH for over 10 years and enjoy much of the humor on this site (part of the reason I joined), but it has always seemed that there are a rare few that have taken it way to seriously. Life is too short, wee need to smile and not look to start trouble. I've seen it too many times here.

Didn't realize there were so many people who need muscle relaxers for their butts..... Just saying, y'know.

Also the photo could be just the erection of the camera some time after it was made,
and then the photo was taken by a camera that post dates it (ie the big one)
then one could reckon that photos of the pyramids spoil the joke...

There was always that controversy as to which came first? Here is a new one that is just down our alley.


Obviously it was taken by the second or later camera!
