Sumerian Tavern Joke 

The earliest example of a bar joke is Sumerian, on a tablet dating from the early Old Babylonian Empire (c. 1894-1800 BC), and it features a dog: "A dog, having walked into an inn, did not see anything, (and so he said): 'Shall I open this (door)?'." The humor of it is probably related to the Sumer way of life and has been lost, but the words remain.
i cry myself to sleep every night thinking about the Sumerian tavern joke and the Sumer way of life. Oh to be a dog born in Mesopotamia between 3500 and 3000 B.C.E

Sumeriancore 

A sub-genre that describes deathcore bands who are signed to Sumerian Records or bands who have stylistic similarities to these bands. The genre is a mix of technical death metal, deathcore and mathcore. The derivation of the word is unknown, though the most typically accredited source is MetalSucks.net. The website coined the word in early May 2009 when they were discussing the latest Born of Osiris release, one of Sumerian Records's most well-recognized and longest-tenured bands.
"Dude, have you heard the new Veil Of Maya album?"
