Everyone is involved in a viral experiment these days. The goal is to find out whether laughter is the best medicine for the coronapocalypse, or whether a meme a day can keep the quarantine blues away. And people do what it says.

But there are no rules when it comes to modern internet humor, except that it has to make you cringe, lol, or die laughing. In fact, the crying laughing emoji has reportedly been the most used one on social media in the past few months. A coincidence? Doubt it.

From absurdist millennial puns-intended to apocalyptic parody memes, Bored Panda has collected the best weekly corona jokes. And for those who just jumped onto the bandwagon, check out our previous compilations: part 1part 2part 3part 4part 5part 6, and part 7.

I don’t even know how they can get away with such greed. Corporate bailouts don’t save you from eviction, illness, or starvation. They can scream for the best parts of capitalism, and flock for shelter under socialism whenever it benefits them.

As we’re well into the crisis now, the jokes and memes are getting more twisted. Dark coronavirus humor is often funnier and somehow resonates better with people.

Interestingly, a taste for black humor could be an indicator of greater intelligence levels, according to this study published in Cognitive Processing. The psychologist Ulrike Willinger led an experiment which showed that participants who appreciated darker jokes expressed less aggression than those with a conventional sense of humor. Plus, the former group was found to have higher levels in verbal and nonverbal intelligence.

So true. Even though where I live we have had zero cases for the past 2 days, I will still be waiting at LEAST 2-4 weeks before I send my kids back to school.

Meanwhile, comedian Ken Cheng believes that joking about any risqué topic within comedy elicits the same answer. “Which is, that it depends,” Ken wrote in an opinion piece for Metro. But he doesn’t see anything wrong with talking about the current crisis in a humorous way. “Of course there will be some camps who think no serious topic should be made fun of, that even mentioning coronavirus in a humorous context is making light of a tragic situation,” but he added, “I don’t subscribe to this.” If humor is used skillfully, it can bring shelter to whatever the situation would be while still understanding its severity.

The take from the rich give the poor doesn't work when politicians' campaigns are being funded by billionaires. In order to change the balance of Congress so that the economy can be somewhat equalized for the middle & lower class is for the people to stop being passive participants in what's really going on in government. Start becoming involved in local & Fed gov& in elections, campaigning, over registration, getting people to vote, getting to the polling places. Make America strong the American way - not with bull9 & intimidation.

Those private jets, mansions and private islands don't buy themselves, you know. No one thinks about the billionaires in times of crisis, it's really unfair. Some billionaires have actually compared their problems to the persecution of Jews in Nazi Germany (https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/10598265/Silicon-Valley-billionaire-compares-treatment-of-Americas-rich-to-Nazi-persecution-of-Jews.html) They are true narcissistic sociopaths. I absolutely agree with the 70% tax rate another commenter made.

What makes you say that the people who earn less don't work just as hard for it? Like nurses, etc. I think they work harder than a lot of celebrities, business men, etc. while getting less perks out of their jobs.

The highest income tax rate jumped from 15 percent in 1916 to 67 percent in 1917 to 77 percent in 1918. In the 1950s and 1960s, when the economy was booming, the wealthiest Americans paid a top income tax rate of 91%.

No one is entitled to anyone's money. I find it funny that those who don't have money are 100% on board with taking others money, yet if they did have money they'd be screaming and crying about paying higher taxes.

I gave my grandmother a look as she was drinking. She told me she heard that it’s good for her. I replied, “it’s wine and only a glass every now and then.” To which she replied, “i’m old and I’ll drink whatever I want.” She was hitting the whiskey and scotch. The woman is approaching 90 and was pregnant 13 times, I’m not going to argue with her. Drink away.

This was me last week. I had the WORST headache all day, painkillers didn't touch the pain. It even woke me up in the middle of night. I was CONVINCED I had covid. Had to do my bi-monthly grocery shop the next day. Bought coffee, I had run out. As soon as I got home I had a coffee and boom! Headache gone! Thankfully I hadn't phoned the doctor the previous day otherwise I would have been slightly embarrassed.

My husband is mad because I've been tipping essential workers heavily. Most of the time it's hand them a $20 for a $6 purchase and tell them to keep the change. Some of these people aren't getting tips like they used to because everyone is at home instead of dining out. They need to make a living too.

Agree with the sentiment. Some of them didn’t even place. Kudos to all the governors who had more intellect and desperately did all they can to get equipment and flatten the curve. Thanks for holding on and denouncing how premature the bail out was. Soooo are we still going to give big corporations tax breaks? SBA loans are based on employees before quarantine. What are the corporate loans based on again? How many of their factories are abroad? How much are they going to sneakily use on themselves and buying back their stocks and giving higher ups bonuses?
