Continuity of lameness

I shared this joke courtesy of Chew (Hope Melbourne) with my batchmates:

US, China and Malaysia were embarking on an archaelogical expedition to discover the possibility that their ancestor's means of telecommunication were more sophisticated than expected.

US dug 100 metres underground and found remnants of copper. Their expedition leader proudly exclaimed, "Wow, I didn't know that we have cable back then, even before the telephone was invented. This is amazing!"

Not to be outdone, China dug 250 metres and found shards of unique glass. Their chief said, "Wow, we have been experimenting with fibre optic back then! This is so cool!!"

Malaysia dug 500 metres and found nothing. Their team leader proclaimed, "Wow, we are even better back then! ... We got wireless!

The joke was supposed to end here. Somehow, Ben managed to do a sequel to it:
Singapore being kiasu and couldn't sit and watch, decided to conduct their own expedition. They dug, and dug, and dug until they couldn't anymore, and found a piece of rubber band. The Singaporean team leader said, "Hey guys, we also got broadband!!"

*sweat* ^_^"
