Brits and Americans are a pond apart. Divided by their accents, their spelling, and even their sense of humor. Or humour. Depending on who you ask. While Americans might go big with slapstick, punchlines, and high-energy banter, the British prefer their comedy served cold, with a side of sarcasm and a deep sigh of quiet existential dread.
Self-deprecating and dry is how many like to describe it. But there's something undeniably charming about a Brit cracking a joke through a stiff upper lip. That's why we can appreciate an online community dedicated to funny British banter.
r/OkMate has more than 339,000 members sharing memes and jokes about what it's really like to live in the land of cucumber sandwiches and afternoon tea. The page has a strict "no serious bollocks" rule and it's main aim is to make jokes, not bore.
Bored Panda has put together our favorite posts from the community, for you to scroll through while you practice the Queen's English. Many of them prove that even when the world is falling apart, there'll always be something to laugh at. even if it's at our own expense.

We British people don't complain about the weather all the time, there are lots of other things for us to complain about... And what is with the dropped T from some of these? For such a small nation we have lots of regional accents with their own idiosyncrasies. For example, Yorkshire folk do say their T's, just they miss out other letters. Anyhow, complaint over... has anyone noticed the lack of rain recently? Won't do the garden any good you know!

Why is the word people between inverted commas after the word British? Are the British not people?

I call them "quotation marks," not "inverted commas".
