Internet humor is lame?

Is it just me, or is the humor on the Internet just becoming boring, and all the same.
Like people with ridiculous signatures of dancing black guys with chicken in their hands, I mean seriously. I am just a cold bastard or is that really just not funny at all?
Maybe its my sense of humor, but I usually crack up about anything.

I guess since I don't spend so much time on the Internet anymore, I am used to reality, so the crazy shenanigans on the web are just not funny, perhaps they weren't in the first place.

your thoughts?

I have to agree, Its not just you. I rarely find internet funny at all, Mst of it is random jibberish and after the hundred time as everything on the internet gets around 60 times, Its just not funny.

Re: Internet humor is lame?

It depends on your sense of humor.

I the biggest thing I know I like to laugh about, is perverted humor.
Other than that, it's kind of random, like it has to be given at a certain time or when I'm in a certain mood.

I like internet humor. Just to let you know.

That's because Black kids with chicken in their hands isn't funny. This is funny.



Not really. Nah, I guess people just got tired and ran out of ideas. I'm sure that there will be some funny memes coming.

I didn't find that funny. Mainly because it's not my kind of sense of humor.

What I just said, /thread

But I'm eager to hear everyone's input though.

You didn't read the "Not Really" underneath of that. Did you?

Right now, all 4Chan is, is a bunch of morons who try and become the next meme in their posts. I'm sure that at least one will be pretty good. All internet humor is the same right now, so right now, I'd just wait.

Re: Internet humor is lame?

Most Internet humour is done by wannabe's, they aren't really funny for that reason.

Re: Internet humor is lame?

It really depends on what you consider "internet humor." Do online comics count? Because some of those are pretty good. Not hysterically funny, but still amusing. There are also some humorous blogs, and there's usually at least one member on a site with pretty sharp wit. I guess you need to specify what you're talking about.

I don't find 4Chan that funny. Now and then, one of the pictures are amusing, but I really wouldn't consider it symbolic of net humor. Also, (and this is just me), I don't find lolcats funny at all. Seriously, about 98% of lolcats or similar jokes are painfully unfunny.

Hello to you too. It isn't meant to make everyone who sees it roll over in hearty laughter, more of a placeholder until I find something better.


Beats a boring Zelda one, anyway.


I don't find it funny either. it is weird, so I like it. I like weird things. Whats not to like about a chicken dance?


I agree, memes or boring. I spend ages on funnyjunk, and I don't even bother properly reading anything with a meme in it.

Re: Internet humor is lame?

I don't really generalize. Every now and then I come across something funny, but most chanfags stopped being funny ages ago. I only laugh at the truly random and absurd. They've gotten to the point where not much is very random or absurd. It's just copypasta.

The internet has its ups and downs. I'm sure some stupid meme will show up soon as the hottest new thing on the Web.

Re: Internet humor is lame?

Most Internet jokes are either idiots attepmting to be funny or stupid inside jokes that get told to everybody.

That being said, I get a chuckle out of the Feels Bad Man frog, but I know when to stop.

I like the Deal With It gifs a lot but really, i think the internet is in a meme rut. No real good ones have come along in a while. Meh.

Re: Internet humor is lame?

Ooooooh sometimes. The memes really aren't all that funny though, but sometimes random humor on the internet can be funny. Take this guy for example! (I suggest you check out his LP videos on YouTube btw.)

Re: Internet humor is lame?

Interent humour isn't really my thing. I am barely on here anymore and everytime when I see something that might interest me, its just some lame perosn on the interent trying to make someone laugh, when it really isn't funny. Most of the entertainment is out in reality, and that's where I am at. People just try too hart do be funny on the internet. Like this:

Last weekend, we had a basketball tournament, it was Juniour Varsiey and Freshman. We were all in the gym watching the other teams play while there was these two girls keep on looking at my friend, then once one of the girls knew what she was talking about they went up to her and the first girl said this:
"Are you number 22?"
She replied saying, "Yeah, why?"
Then she said, "Are you homo?"
Yes, she freaked out of course and then she tried getting her friend to back her up on this subject, but her friend already ran out the door and left her behind to those lesbians, so, she replied no and ran out the gym following her.

That is humourous, but yet not cool. And that is out in reality, not some cruddy bull**** that I find on the internet.

Re: Internet humor is lame?

I usually laugh at some of the better perverse and morbid jokes online and post some of them as well, but for the most part, I've usually seen it before, so it's no longer funny. I know some people online who will take something out of context, myself included, and its just humorous to see the response. Some of the slapstick humor is funny as well if they have a video to go with it, but most things don't appeal to my sick sense of humor anymore.

Re: Internet humor is lame?

Internet memes are annoying. People think they are clever by saying "it's over 900o" or whatever, but they just sound stupid and predictable.

Internet memes aren't funny. Please stop using them, and be more creative.
