i actually agree with with last bit about abortion it should be women that make those decisions or talk about it
To learn more about witty comments and how to improve our comedy skills, we spoke to Abigail Paul, a standup comedian, improviser, and actress with an irreverent and original comedy brain. Having performed improvisation, standup comedy, and theatre in venues all over Germany, the US, and the EU, she was kind enough to share her thoughts on why people leave comments in the first place.
“Today’s reader has the advantage over their predecessor that they feel part of the action,” she said. “In comedy, we are always looking to create content that an audience member will relate to, so when someone leaves a fantastic comment on an article or picture, it helps us feel connected, a little less alone.”
“It shows us that someone else, maybe many people, think the same way we do,” Abigail mentioned. “We take great comfort in not being alone on our ideas.”
The standup comedian revealed that the secret to a successful comment is probably equal parts true and surprising. An unexpected remark “that just has shock value isn’t as highly regarded as one that is embedded in truth.”
“In comedy terms, your picture or article you are commenting on is your setup. Your witty comment is the punchline,” she explained. “There are lots of ways to be funny, but a great punchline will usually have excellent use of wordplay, exaggeration, or make an analogy to something else so the reader can maybe see the topic in a new light.”
Well, the natives here in the US were more curious than frightened, and look where that got us. It definitely was the right reaction.
“The most important thing is usually an element of surprise. Good comedy writers use misdirect as well as a magician does. We think we see you going to one place and you go somewhere unexpected. Audiences love a twist,” Abigail said, providing true crime podcasts as an example.
According to her, leaving a comment and letting out a few chuckles helps us bond with others. “Comedy is the most fun thing humans can share (besides pizza),” she said. “The pandemic has forced a lot of comedy experiences online. It hurt live comedy a lot, but new spaces have thrived online because people need to connect and laugh. The upside is you can find ways to be funny at home in your PJs.”
Congratulations! I'm not surprised you're on here seeing how funny your comments always are.
Load More Replies...I've seen this first hand at my job, it's so creepy. A woman had a cyst on each ovary, each the size of a basketball, so she must've been enormous already to allow them to grow to that size without noticing. These were dermoid cysts and weren't filled with fluid, they were filled with a cream cheese consistency gunk. Once I'd scraped all that out, the inside wall of the cyst had clumps of hair and bits of teeth fragments. I've also read that some have been found to contain eyeballs and brain cells. Unbelievably spooky.
Oh thank you so, so much @Sinkvenice. You just had to, right?
Load More Replies...When I was little someone told me about a boy that had something hairy with teeth in his stomach. But I'm pretty sure they said it was his twin he had in his stomach and not a tumor. This makes me wonder though..
I heard this story about a local woman who had a problem pregnancy. Ultrasound showed a healthy baby and also an eight-pound tumor in the womb. The C-section birth produced a healthy baby boy. The doctor then took out a lump the size of a football. It had hair, teeth, and eyespots. Apparently, this would have been a twin brother, but something went horribly wrong during the pregnancy. Normally, the mother would spontaneously abort a failed fetus like this. Her body did not do this so the healthy baby could be born full-term. The nurse that told me this story said it was the most cringe-worthy moment she ever had when the doctor pulled out the hairy deformed mass. YUCK...EWWW...
I feel bad for the mother, and I truly hope she never tells the kid. Imagine your friend telling you that sh! t one day
Load More Replies...Toni Boone actually typed that "Trump told the truth." Lives under a rock? Benedict Donald wasn't invited anywhere in NYC [we've heard his lies for ½ a century]…no1 summons him to events in Palm Beach either since his perpetual lies aren't a state secret: 30,573 over 4 yrs which omits 17 mos of campaigning & un-video-taped lies: during mtgs, phone calls, plane/limo rides, meals. That's 22 lies every day multiplied by 20 times [if u add the untaped lies]. He lied today & unremittingly shouts His Big Lie that got him kicked off social media & impeached twice. Only the uneducated welcome him~~see his pals on Jan 6th videos.~~WaPo 1/24/21
I had a tumor and was told it could be cancer or a teratoma. I had my fingers crossed for cancer.
I found that out when I was very young. I had a cyst and I thought it might it's way out.
Jarrod Nichols is an ignorant dik~~millions of Americans didn't accept Orange Julius as their prez. U can be deluded forever...he was~~& still is~~an UNACCEPTABLE buffoon & incessant liar. Go find yourself a human to admire, ferc}{rissakes. Assassination is too good for him, Mokayokok; he needs tortured like he did to millions for 5 yrs & killed 500,000 by ignoring & lying about a virus 'cuz he flunked 5th-grade science. ["It'll be gone by Easter 2020."] Now I must take a shower to expel reading his unctuous, toxic name Drumpf.
I know this... I can't remember why I know it... something to do with a runner with an illness and an experimental treatment
bloody hell that teeth tumor is horrible i googled it and wont sleep until somebody cuddles meeee!!
I have one of these! :D It's called a teratoma and mine has teeth... it's in my ovary
I was a midwife and I saw several teratoma. It is pretty gruesome to see the hair and teeth.
Ahh.. the teratoma. They are usually not cancer causing tho, unlike politicians.
Working as a secretary in a pathology I always play the game with myself - do I wanna google it? Most times - BIG MISTAKE!
Desperation from the Trump trash, as usual.

If you want to improve at writing clever comments online, you need to practice. “Comedy is a skill,” Abigail told us. “The more you write, the better you usually get.” But it’s important “not to get too precious about your work. Notice which clever comments you are writing get lots of likes or replies, and see if you can dissect why that comment is working.”
“If something isn’t working, don’t worry too much about why. A lot of good writing is throwing spaghetti at the wall and seeing what sticks.” She advised you to focus on what works and try to replicate your own formula. “Also - edit. Are there any words you can take out, but the comment is still really funny? Then do. The more concise you are, the better it is for your reader.”
Don't they have cliff sensors? Mine does. Won't even come within 30cm of a step 1cm high.
Abigail is now busy with her new organization in Frankfurt called English Comedy Frankfurt, aiming to bring fun shows with diverse audiences and comedians. So if you want some tips on writing for standup, be sure to check out her website and follow her work on Twitter.
It looks like that one little square in a rubik's cube that you just can't match!
Judging by the cobwebs on the books; perhaps everyone there is stupid.
I think this is the 4th or 5th time I have seen this pic on BP so far lol
Oh god this is terrifyingly funny I can't stop my laughter HUUULP
It's not an inventor of that... thing, it's Sam Chui, aviation journalist, yet someone wishes him everything the worst. That's... not nice.
I rememebr already laughing at this at the original post and now for the second round: bwahahaha
Without being sarcastic, I'd like to say that I'm surprised... and a little proud to be featured in this post.
I like puns that are terrible. People that turn their nose up at these need to Czech their privilege.
As someone who grew up in Western Australia, this image terrifies me

This was great, and why I love BP. The people here post the most funny things and there's always someone here that makes me laugh !
We need more lists like this! A ton of people on BP are hilarious!
Your comments have made me laugh so hard, you should've been on here Jo Choto!
Load More Replies...I was kind of hoping to see some of the ogs here (like Foxxy the original!) but at least there are some lesser known pandas on here! good job :D
Exactly! Vicky Z, Caro Caro, Bacony Cakes, Leo Domitrix... they should've been there!! 🥺
Load More Replies...i feel personally attacked hu this comments
Load More Replies...Great list, just a bit cringe for me that all the replies are trying too hard to out-do the ones that made the list.
Is Foxxy or Foxy THE ORIGINAL kicked of this site? She was once commenting on nearly every article getting loads of upvotes (didn't matter what she wrote). She is not on this list and I havent seen her in a while.
And that’s why I read Bored Panda daily. A lot of people here are smart and have a brilliant sense of humor.
Someone should post the most stupid comments, sometimes the comments are as funny as the stupid statement above
Special shout out to anyone who comments "boop" on a picture showing a dog's nose. I don't know why, but I love that so much. It's not original like the ones on this list, but it's tradition, and the cuteness of imagining booping the snoot gives me an endorphin rush every time, so thank you.
Very clever, Pandas. Party! I looked through my notifications from the last month, and by comparison, my top comment had a paltry 29 upvotes. You're internet superstars!
Sum Guy's comment on the picture of the two people has only 60 votes, when all the others have at least 200. Methinks there's a bit of bias going on here.
You should have been there too, Aroace tiger! I love your comments!!
Load More Replies...That was a walk down memory lane! Meta articles like this one should happen more often.
Just no, there is NOTHING more irritating than people commenting on posts like they think they're funny.
Loved this list. I saw comments on one yesterday that had me laughing for an hour. My husband kept asking if I was ok... and what was I on because I was giggling to myself so long.
How ever read each and ever comment to make this post deserves a medal and ice cream
The article is represented by the spelling of disapprove in a example that actually doesn’t make the list. Great work BP.
It does make the list and it is WITHOUT the typo. That error was down to some BP staff member retyping it wrongly.
Load More Replies...But… what if this is it? There will never be new content. Will you ever be content?
Load More Replies...Yeah it's unethical that BP doesn't pay commission to its members every time they post a comment, which is how it's done on most other websites, for example:
