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.
Another obvious lie since sarcasm requires intelligence.

I'll give him "thinking outloud" but I will NOT give him "sarcastic." And as "thinking outloud," he's an idiot.
Thick as pigshit. Sorry. Don't normally talk like that, but needs must. Sad! The biggest sad ever!! Genius sad!!
Trump has ZERO common sense. Why on earth would he think that being President of The United States would maybe make people listen to what he says? Its not like he has a c**p ton of advisors, specialists, scientists or anything. Its not like he was holding press conferences that millions of people would see......
Can people just quit making corona political for five minutes??? Yeah, people are dying, and maybe Trump isn't doing the best job right now as the president, but for anybody mocking him, I'd like to see you do better! (And you can't just point blames at him without some proof. If you're gonna accuse him of something, get your proof for it.)

It very well could've been a joke. Yet also he could possibly have lost some of his followers after they tried out "his joke".
🦅🇺🇸🌵🇲🇽🍁🇨🇦☘️🇨🇮🦅🇺🇸 I'm beginning to think Trump's dementia has reached the point where he really believes his own lies. So, are they really lies if he believes them true?
A lie, by definition, is an untruth. Whether one believes them or not, they are still lies.

Sorry...couldn't resist since we all watched the live video and, well....just sayin' :)
Guys please stop letting your hatred for this man blind you from the truth. He literally asked a scientist if it was possible. That’s all. Stop believing every freaking thing CNN says. Yeah he’s not the best president, but he’s not Satan either. Smh. Down vote away.
I don't hate him, I'm just disgusted. When he got in I had some hope that he would at least try to rise to it, once he realized what a huge job it is, but he has consistently done nothing but try to make it over in his own mean and tawdry image. He tries to persuade everyone that he's the greatest president that ever held office, but he persuades no one but himself and his most boot-licking sycophants. At this point we have nothing more to hope for except that when he loses the election this fall, he will accept it and retire with some dignity.

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.
I don't see any dolphin but I do see a drowned deer.
In nursing school right now. Our online exams are proctored by people over webcam to make sure we don't cheat.
We're supposed to go back to work next week and I'm already crying... How am I supposed to wear a bra now that my boobs are so used to their freedom???
I'm in week 6 of quarantine... it is no longer relaxing for me. I never would have anticipated this. I'm stressed out every day and I have trouble figuring out why.
If they're going to leave 2 available why not the 2 furthest away from each other?

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 (:
