The pandemic has taken over the world and while health professionals and government authorities are working tirelessly to keep people as safe as possible, they are doing their best to make a difference as well. Washing their hands, social distancing, and creating jokes about the situation online, of course. It's one of the most popular coping mechanisms, helping everyone to handle their pandemic-related fears and anxieties. "The more we laugh at something, the less scary it looks," one board game developer has said.

From poking fun at our online orders to a moment of silence for our ever-worsening hairstyles, Bored Panda has collected the best coronavirus jokes this week, and for those who can't get enough of them, check out our previous compilations: part 1part 2part 3part 4part 5part 6part 7, and part 8.

Unfortunately, we can't eliminate stress and anxiety from our lives. Especially during these uncertain times. We can, however, develop skills to manage them. "A sense of humor can be an amazing line of defense when it comes to coping with stress," Elizabeth Scott, MS, who's a wellness coach specializing in stress management and quality of life, wrote in Very Well Mind.

"Developing a sense of humor about life's challenges is a great place to start," Scott said. "A sense of humor will help you to build resilience to stress as well as improve your overall physical and emotional health. It will also enable you to bond with others, look at things in a different way, normalize your experience, and keep your relationships strong."

So, if we're already doing everything in our power to get through the pandemic, chances are that joking about it will only make things better.

"When you're in the middle of a difficult situation, it can seem overwhelming. Taking a step back, however, and viewing your situation as an observer can help you see your situation with a new lens. This is called reframing—and it works," Scott said.

Truth. The real question is: "Are we going to do anything about it?" Step one would be to vote out Trump, Mitch, and the rest of the GOP come November.

I'm currently reading the book. It is brilliant. A good one for lockdown as it's 895 pages!

Far as I recall it reopened once, and that wasn't really a reopening since the original park never really went into business. And then it ran successfully for years - at least long enough for people to get *bored* with dinosaurs! - before another incident occurred.

No. He wasn't. He's an imbecile and so emotionally-r******d that he can't even take responsibility or ownership of the things he says. Trump believes that personal integrity is a flaw.

Love to see a celebrity with a sense of humor! And a dose of self deprecation too. Nice.

Watched Dawn French do her performance of 30 Million Minutes and in it she says she thinks celebs are just people who didn't grow out of the toddler 'look at me' stage.

Oh, come on. This is a really funny comment that shows an understanding that he is privileged as a celeb. Let's applaud his self-awareness instead of criticizing his status. (Or downvote because celebs make us mad.)

I recommend watch Ryan George on YouTube. Search "please pay attention to that celebrity guy ". Oh, you need to understand sarcasm before you watch.

Lets hope they stay forgotten, what useless people most of the so called celebrities are, not the talented ones like actors and singers who entertain us (at an exorbitant cost) but the influencers, instagrammers and their ilk.

This joke presumes that Trump can actually read and understand words that have more than two syllables. He finished reading the first word and then got stuck. Now he's just looking at it to try to convince people that he's reading.

I worked at Blockbuster in the late 90s right out of high school. I am so thankful this didn't happen THEN...although I doubt we would have been deemed "essential"
