Please help me understand...?

Lately, I hear a lot of "That's what she said," with the result of rolls of laughter.

Put bluntly, I don't get it.

Is it a running gag? Did it come from a show on TV? (I don't have a tv) Is it a sexual joke?

Can someone explain why "That's what she said" is funny?

    It is a joke that was created a long time ago. It usually refers to what a girl would say while engaging in sexual acts. Say for example, when somebody says "Just stick it in there," (unintentionally sex-related), a person goes "THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID," As in a person sticking his...ah, you get it, right?

    it's usually used as a kind of innuendo.

    like

    "i'm really terrible at this"

    "thats what she said!"

    implies the girl he slept thinks he's bad in bed, you see?
