Comedy is a diverse and varied genre; no two people have the same tastes. With the advent of the internet, however, that doesn’t matter. There really is something out there for everyone—from lowbrow to highbrow and from cheesy to cutting satire.
Let’s start the laugh meter with some of the funniest websites on the web.
It seems somehow appropriate to kick off this list with Engrish.com. It’s a website that specializes in pictures of English-language mishaps, often in foreign lands.
Let’s be clear, there is absolutely no shame in making errors when English is not your mother tongue. This funny website typically focuses on errors committed by businesses—and there really is no excuse for them.
If you’re struggling to learn English, there are apps that help you build English vocabulary and learn how to use those words.
If you’re short of time and need a quick joke to lighten your mood before you head out for the day, head to Funny Short Jokes. It is one of the funniest sites on the web if you are into one-liners.
Unfortunately, only a couple of new jokes are added every month, but there is a massive back catalog you can dig into. Jokes also have a Reddit-esque upvote/downvote system, so you can quickly find which quips other readers enjoyed.
If satire is more to your liking, you’ll certainly have heard about The Onion. It is one of the best satire sites on the web.
The site, which is operated out of Chicago, uses current events to create spoof stories, editorials, op-ed pieces, and interviews. Comedian and actor Bob Odenkirk has gone on record as saying, “[The Onion] is the best comedy writing in the country, and it has been since it started.”
If you don’t feel like reading, you can watch its funny videos for a quick laugh.
Overheard in New York lets residents of the city submit snippets of conversations they hear while going about their daily lives in the Big Apple.
It has become so popular that a number of sister sites have been spawned (such as Overheard in the Office and Overheard at the Beach), and a book of the most popular quotes has been published.
Cyanide and Happiness is one of the most well-known webcomics on the internet. It’s funny, satirical, political, and sometimes offensive. But you’re sure to have a good laugh while clicking through the thousands of images.
The comic also has an active Discord where fans can congregate, a YouTube channel, and even comic-themed mini-games.
The Daily Mash has taken a leaf out of The Onion’s book; it provides a never-ending stream of satirical news stories. However, whereas The Onion is mostly US-focused, The Daily Mash instead hones in on UK-themed stories.
Like The Onion, you’ll also find a video section on The Daily Mash that has tons of funny material for you to peruse.
Branded as “comics, quizzes, and stories”, The Oatmeal’s biggest draw is the cartoons that are crafted by its founder, Matthew Inman. The content itself is varied, covering everything from the English language to computer usage.
Every single one of the works on the site requires a lot of dedication; in an interview with the Los Angeles Times in 2010, Inman said each image took him around eight hours to produce.
Most family homes have at least one picture on the wall that makes you shudder each time you see it.
This website collates all those images into one place; from painstakingly recreated family portraits to perfectly timed snapshots, you can finally feel safe in the knowledge that you’re not the only one who has a shoebox full of embarrassing photos.
And the fun doesn’t stop there; they also have a lot of awkward family videos for you to enjoy.
If you want GIFs and memes, 9GAG needs to be your first port of call. Its upvote/downvote system means you’ll find new content each time you visit, and the frequently updated “Featured” section typically focuses on what’s hot in the media at any given time.
The site has also launched mobile apps on both iOS and Android and now boasts a thriving Reddit-esque community.
As we all know, Reddit is a treasure trove of information, regardless of the type of content you are looking for. The site is no different when it comes to funny jokes.
The r/Jokes subreddit is packed with funny one-liners, hilarious monologues, and everything in between. With over 26 million subscribers, there are dozens of new jokes posted every hour. You won’t be able to stop laughing.
