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 1, part 2, part 3, part 4, part 5, part 6, part 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.
woopsie doodle is funnier than it should have been lol...i blame the time of day
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.
Yes, Don, you will need to move your head to get that disc up in there.
Don't know what that kid on the lower right is doing in this list. Compared to the others, her hair is practically red carpet level.
Racoon Reading list: "Art of War", "Fall of the Roman Empire" and "Building Improvised Explosive Devices using Items Commonly Found in the Forest, Dumpsters or Loud Metal Garbage Cans".
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.
...Ooooo, blue. I like blue. Like my suit, blue. Pretty. Very very pretty.

And if injecting it does not work, maybe you need to bath in it. Or bake cookies with it. No idew is strange enough to not come from Trump and be denied again once he realised that the whole world is shaking heads.
"It was sarcasm." Yeah... always extremely helpful during press conferences.

No guys he is looking at it because he’s trying to find a spot for his SIGNATURE so he can take credit for it!!!
What did the first part say about "humidity?" I wasn't able to see it.
Trump has accomplished more during the brief time of this pandemic than most presidents in 8 years of term! He has worked wonders and I respect him tremendously!!!
You, of course, have the right to your own opinion. I can’t help you

We'd better make a vaccine fast, or all the vampires will die (again). Actually, I understand that there was a study which found that the virus breaks down in only minutes in sunshine, vs hours inside.
If I were president of any country, I would not be tweeting all my thoughts like a stream of consciousness... I would also defer to the experts (in the fields relevant to the issue at hand) that are advising me and read the scripts that have been prepared for me rather than pretending to be a polymath who is an expert in every field.
I think that's the opinion of all reasonable and concerned Americans, and throw most other nations into the mix. I'm so deeply ashamed of him, of international attitudes toward him, of the lack of respect and cooperation we once had. I'm an atheist, but there must be some unseen force that can inflict a scientifically provable understanding of this world crisis. Check back in September? Maybe make it Christmas? Things, in general, are scary as hell.

Actually, a couple days before he said it, Trump was talking to the guy who sells bleach as a snake oil cure-all under the name "miracle mineral solution". Not a joke; look it up.
I'm going to take this with a grain of salt, not because it seems unlikely(which it doesn't) but... Actually, nevermind, this sounds right

I'm surprised he hasn't suggested drinking the isopropyl alcohol. Oh, that's right. He doesn't drink alcohol because his brother died of alcoholism. Then, again, he does have a problem with reading. He's in his 70's and too proud to wear glasses to see what's going on in the real world?
World's biggest plonker ever. He should like that record. It's a record!!!!!!
In his narcissistic thinking, he wants to appear to be the first to come up with the next bright idea. After all, his followers will "swallow" anything. He thinks of himself as the most brilliant president ever, and uses every opportunity to show his "brilliance." He has no concept of the difference between appearing to be a leader and actually being one.

Frankly, I've had enough of all the political c**p with COVID-19. Trump is president, get over it. This is a national health crisis, and not a time to be pointing fingers and becoming more and more polarized and bipartisan.
You can hate trump all you want, and not vote for him and the next election, and that's great. But hate breeds hate. People need to cut it out with the insults, categorizing and labeling on the things that are political. Don't jump to conclusions, educate yourself and learn what's true and what's not. Step up. It's not that hard (:
