Some people take more time than others to wrap their heads around jokes. Innuendos and clever puns usually carry a hidden meaning, which might seem confusing at first. In fact, research shows that nearly 70% of people laugh at jokes they don’t understand. An abundance of such instances can be found online, as the internet is a treasure trove of jokes, witty comments, and other frivolous material to make people laugh.
Here at Bored Panda, we dove into the depths of the That's the Joke subreddit to bring some examples of people unintentionally missing the gag line. And they might be funnier than the actual jests. Make yourself some popcorn and start scrolling through.
P.S. If you want to continue the involuntary abb workout, make sure to check out these jokes that are so bad they’re actually great.

Imma be honest, it took me way longer than it should’ve to understand what the post meant😳. Edit to clarify: I meant it took me to long to figure out what “rub one off” meant. It’s a running joke among my friends that I am the most innocent man alive. For example, I had to have Hickeys explained to me last month (I’m 18)
No Way... I Mean Let's Ignore Cloths

I pause multiplayer games to feed my yelling cats and dog and turtles. Then I get tons of angry screaming that’s ALMOST as bad as the cats’ from the people who ditched me because I wasn’t moving and run ahead, only to discover I was the only one who had enough weapons to beat that thing up front. I’m a jerk in multiplayers like that.

This post would've been much better without people explaining the jokes. *grins*
Speaking of lame jokes.... I keep telling people I'm immortal - just like in my last life. Nobody has laughed yet. I can't tell if it's just not funny or if nobody gets it.
Dark humor is like food. Not everybody gets it.
Load More Replies...My boyfriend, dear thing, tends to be literal and often explains jokes back to me. He will understand the joke and laugh but then tell me why it's funny, whether I made the joke or someone else did. lol He's just a little nerdy but I love him :-p
sounds like ASD. get him tested. It is useful to know. speaking from experience.
