One of the many great things about living in the digital age is how easy it is to find your tribe online. You may need to do a little digging, but once you’ve connected with your people, you will likely be left amazed at how many others share your quirks and interests.
The Skamtebord subreddit, for one, is a haven for those who find laughter in out-of-context misspellings and wordplay. It currently has 58,000 members and counting, proving that this type of humor is a hit, despite its niche nature.
If you’re wondering what the fuss is all about, check out these screenshots we’ve compiled. Perhaps you will also find yourself cracking up as you scroll through.

For the uninitiated, the subreddit’s name itself is a misspelling of the word “skateboard.” It came about when a screenshot of a 2020 text message from pro skater Tony Hawk went viral, showing him responding to a random fan with the word “skamteboard.”
It was after Hawk posted his actual phone number to connect with people that it, of course, received a ton of traction.

Laughing at something that is out of place, much like the words on this list, apparently traces back to our evolutionary roots. University of Edinburgh professor Jonathan Silvertown, an expert on this matter, says that absurdist humor has been popular since Shakespeare's time.

In his article, Silvertown also explained how the human brain is actually programmed to detect errors and incongruity that ultimately trigger hilarity and amusement.
“These errors are processed, compared with expectation, and those judged humorous ricochet around the brain, producing laughter,” he wrote.

The Benign Violations Theory is often cited as a primary framework for what makes something funny. Simply put, it’s when the violation of a norm, which in this case is the proper spelling of a word, will likely be perceived as funny.
As consumer psychologist Cathrine Jansson-Boyd writes, what determines whether something being ridiculed is “benign” depends on how bad it is and how far we are removed from it.

“In terms of personal experience, serious events may be considered funnier over time, while stubbing a toe, which would be considered a minor violation, would lose its comedic effect over time,” Jansson-Boyd explains.

FWIW The reddish brown paste is called çiğ köfte 'n Turkish. It's a mixture of finely minced (not ground) raw meat (beef or lamb, from which ever particle of fat and sinew has been removed), pounded together with fine bulgur, pepper and tomato paste, scalions, parsley, and shedloads of garlic and spices. When made properly, it's excellent and deserves all tne 🥰s. 😋😋
