One joke used during the study was: “A businessman is riding the subway after a hard day at the office. A young man sits down next to him and says, 'Call me a doctor, call me a doctor’. The businessman asks, 'What’s the matter, are you sick?’.”

should the businessman respond: "OK, you're a doctor." and that should end the joke.

course, I'm an old guy

From another old guy - That would have been my reply. A tip of the hat to Groucho.

That’s closer to the original joke, it’s typical of Yiddish humor; this writer or this study is lame - especially when their conclusion was that there’s approximately a 6% difference.

That was my first choice also. But then, I’m an oldie as well.

I'm only 33 and came up with the same punchline as you.
