  2. An interesting study on humour in scientific talks (531 presentations, 870 jokes):

    67% of jokes failed.
    Only ~9% got real laughter.

    Men joke slightly more, and native English speakers are more likely to succeed.

    O yes... Joking in a foreign language is hard, and even in your own, it only works if the audience truly gets it.
