There is a tired trope that women are not capable of coming up with funny jokes as men do. The infamous and hilarious female comedian Carol Burnett has re-told her story countless times about the path to her own variety TV show, and it always includes a variation of the phrase “comedy is a man’s game.” Well, it’s time to shut that old idea down.

Thanks to trailblazers like Burnett, countless funny women have since dominated TV, movies, stand-up comedy stages, Netflix and yes, even, Twitter. Social media has given us all a new platform to show off our best jokes, comedy chops, and funny tweets and some of our favorite accounts are run by women. If you don’t follow Chrissy Teigen's epic Twitter account you are seriously missing out on some comedy gold. Bored Panda has rounded up some of the best tweets from women on Twitter guaranteed to make you laugh! So scroll down below for some best puns delivered by the 'weaker' gender.

I have an identical twin named Patrick, and we go to different schools in cork. To see if anyone would find out, we traded places for a day. (We take almost the exact same subjects, so we weren’t horribly confused during classes or anything.) the only time one of the students noticed something wrong was when I answered anseo múinteoir (Irish for here teacher) when William, one of my brothers classmates, was called. Neither of us got in any trouble

Also here in EU many complanies are planning to quit using plastic straws and other plastic single use items like forks and knives. It is just good for the envinronment to replace plastic with paper, cardboard, wood and other bio-degreable materials.

I agree that guns should be banned but implying that the banning of straws is nothing, or doesn't matters is low too. I agree with the point but the comparison is badly chosen

Ok this straw thing...some people NEED them to drink. I had multiple brain surgeries, half my face is frozen. I haven't been able to get facial rejuvenation surgery yet for it. Until then, I cannot purse my lips on one side of my face. Liquids will simply NOT stay in my mouth. Often, I use a plastic straw to drink, especially in public. The environment is really a non-issue for me and lots of other people like me when we cannot drink in public without them.

Yes what a glorious thing. Straws are by far more deadly than fire arms.

Again... we have multiple issues that need to be fixed. And one not everyone drinks water bottles, I don't. And two, not everyone but most people recycle the water bottles but most people just throw away straws.

I've heard this stupid remark before. You know, it wasn't a choice of one or the other. Obviously the straw lobby isn't as strong as the gun lobby.

I would like to point out that 1 side would like to ban straws, have better gun control, pay teachers more, make sure children have access to healthcare including mental healthcare and to eat so they never starve....... and 1 side sits on their asses and calls that communist socialist fascism. And when only straws are banned, that's too much government in our lives.

EVERYBODY should have access to health care. It shouldn't stop just because they lived long enough to become adults.

Yeah, the thing with straws is a little crazy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Lh3aPbKDn8&t=0s Like there are not much important problems to solve - both for the environment (microplastic shampoos, cosmetics,... cruise ships, fishnets...) and the society (guns, healthcare,...)

@Night Owl I agree that there are plenty of more dangerous things to take care of but also everything that reduces the use of plastic is a good thing for the envinronment. So when making better gun and healthcare laws people could also make better laws that are good for the envinronment at the same time.

We are a seriously screwed up society when we regard plastic straws as a greater threat to life than guns. I am not opposed to personal ownership of guns, but I do wish that more gun owners were more responsible - and less nasty to those who choose to not own guns.

Our society doesn't think straws are a greater threat. There are multiple issues that need to be fixed, this is just one and an easier one to fix. That's why we have already seen the results. Guns is a more controversial topic and will take longer to come to a conclusion the majority is OK with.

this is a good answer to your mums question of 'if everyone jumped off a cliff, would you?!', you could now answer 'yes, but I'd wear a life jacket'.

My friend has one like that, they start talking and it is impossible to get away - ends up inventing imaginary reasons you have to go.

To be honest - I hate this in general. Can we just stop stereotyping everyone? (I know we can't, really, but let's aim for that!)
