With all the puns intended, dank memes, and surreal jokes surfing around these past few months, it’s fair to say corona jokes are a kind of humor in their own league.
And if you think of the virus as an invisible and inanimate target, it surely deserves some mockery. Baby boomers and Gen Z-ers gravitate towards relatable and observational humor, like “Anyone else starting to get a tan from the light in your refrigerator?” Many corona jokes give a sense of absurdity in the misery by assuring us that "we’re all in this together." And honestly, this is all we need.
So let’s dive deep into the best corona comedy bits and skits this week compiled by Bored Panda. These are just as good, if not better, than when this whole punapocalypse began. And if you just now joined the bandwagon, be sure to check out part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4, part 5, part 6, part 7, part 8, and part 9.

Meanwhile, in S. Korea, amongst the daily warning notifications regarding the coronavirus, once I received one that said if I ever got discriminated by a government official for being an immigrant, to not hesitate to report them. I think that's pretty nice of them. I feel like this country does care after all. It feels reassuring.
Corona humor has been lifting up our spirits online for the past few months. But that doesn’t mean that all quarantine-related jokes are equally fun and harmless. From what we’ve seen in recent examples, cracking corona jokes live can backfire big time.
And Ellen DeGeneres knows this first-hand. The 62-year-old comedian, who hosted her show from home like many others, upset many fans by comparing her quarantine time to being in jail.
During her opening monologue, the star joked: “This is like being in jail is what it is.” She continued: “Mostly because I’ve been wearing the same clothes for 10 days and everyone in here is gay!” She soon received a lot of critique.
Cheers for Contingency Fee. Most law firms don’t have the decency to call their clients out, they’ll just take their money.
Another corona humor faux pas came from the K-pop star Kim Jaejoong, who announced on his Instagram account that he was in hospital after contracting COVID-19. He soon admitted it was an April Fool’s joke gone wrong and apologized. The BBC reports that Kim has a long history of pranking fans. He previously pretended to faint during a concert and announced a false marriage as part of his April Fool’s jokes.
You HOPE it’s holy water, could be toilet water for all you know lol.
Please add the name of the person who said that, so that we can donate some shrill loughs.
I worked in my university’s dining halls, and the regulations and guidelines in place are comprehensive and far cleaner than a lot of restaurants. The student manager and assistant manager can be difficult though. I told them I was sick and they didn’t believe me, had to go to work or show a doctor’s note otherwise I’d be written up. I did both in that order. Made whatever I had worse. Got the dang doctors note which cost me way more than the wages from three shifts. It’s rough.

If you could see what I've seen.... Everyone, just, just grow a garden and buy a cow
Gordon Ramsey strongly disagrees with that statement and has plenty of horrific experiences to back it up!
My favorite story to tell from my decade working in restaurants: Once I was very ill and still going to work at a pizza place, one if the big three. It was in the rich part of town in Houston but I lived in a much lower class part. I was on oven duty, meaning I was the one taking the food out of the oven an cutting it. There's always a trash can next to the table for errors. Towards the end of the night while standing there I threw up in the trash can, took out the trash, washed my hands and then went back to work. When the cashier, a 17 year old well-to-do girl, asked me why I'm still working, I asked her if she was going to pay my bills. Went to work the next day too and never missed a scheduled day. No sick pay, no insurance because I couldn't afford it for what they offered.
My husband works for the state department of health, and my father was president of the county board of health. You don’t want to hear the horror stories.
I live on Hawaii Island, which has a relatively low population, and which has had a grand total of 77 people infected, all but two out of quarantine, only one hospitalized, and no deaths. We'd like to keep it that way, so all visitors/tourists to the island are required to quarantine at their resort for 2 weeks - NOT a great way to spend your vacation! Please wait till later to come. I post this here because we had a cluster of 11 (of our 77) who were extended family & friends who worked at the local McD outlets. Theoretically the food service did not infect anyone, but once one person on the staff got it, it spread quickly, so despite being an "essential service" (food via drive thru) the outlets were shut down.
Don’t forget the health and livelihood of the people who handle your food and involved in the supply chain. The pandemic has brought the world to its’ knees.’So many systems breaking down, and/or have to update their policies to reflect the change in the world.
But the employees are the problem. They spit in food, buggars i food and don't really care about anything but a pay check.
But this is it in a nutshell. No empathy by lack of knowledge. Tomi pretends to be very knowledgable, but if you listen it's just rapid repetitions of the same words in a different order. She has perfected her shouting matches. And while sometimes there seems to be some actual logic in her reasoning, by the time you come to her conclusion you understand she knows nothing and is nothing more than an obnoxious self-overrated idiot that totally acts on her own fear of losing her privilege. She needs to sit down and shut up if she wants any economy to b***h about in her lifetime. And this goes for a lot of people. Far beyond their whines about corona.
No. China, or Obamagate, unless he thinks of something else obscure.
Honestly, everyone knew that already before Covid, but was scared to openly talk about it.
Yep, I definitely see this happening. The US seem to be the most blaśe about it.
My wife teaches geometry (and math) at a high school and she told me she feels insulted by the outright stupid term "Sacred Geometry".
There is enough juice to squirt you in the eye for an extra f**k you.
Irresponsible people are giving the Grim Reaper plenty of work. Sadly, he isn't reaping just the nincompoops who protest lockdowns.
We can't fund the World Health Organization, but we can spend oodles on jejune moral support.
Yes My cat..which isn't even technically my cat, is known as the office secretary.
Costumers can be really dumb, sandwiches don't need to be social distanced, they don't have covid and can't spread it
Quarantine is over in Greece and I terribly miss having a legit excuse not to leave the house and socialize :/

We need humor like this to get us through these dark times. If not for a warped sense of humor, a lot of us would have gone totally nuts by now.
I often go on walks outside my house and see clouds of middle and high schoolers riding their bikes together. Also, I have seen several parties. This is REALLY annoying and I just want to strangle their non-social-distancing throats.
And of course there's that one idiot screaming about "obamagate" like it's a real thing instead of made up b******t being peddled by right-wing conspiracy morons. I really have no hope for humanity.
Have hope Kate. As long as there's one good person left there's hope. Good people are actually in the majority, albeit a small one. Hang in.

Well folks, we just gotta do what's right, even though so many people don't understand what is going on right now, nor their role in any of this. Masks are a must, and social distancing is the new culture.
Like Boring old farts these Corona jokes are really starting suck the oxygen out ... of any room. How can one individually vote down the outstandingly boring witless ones?
This whole covid thing is like when you're in class, and the teacher says "if you keep talking, I'm removing minutes off of recess." And mostly everyone's quiet, but then there's this 5 people who ignore her and keep talking. Of course everyone else is angry as hell. If protesters keep protesting, we're losing all our minutes of recess
Have you noticed how much darker Covid 19 posts are getting? Nobody is laughing about it now...
All joking aside, we don't know how much longer this virus is going to be around. All we can do is protect ourselves, stay safe, and stay calm. If we would just work together as a society, things would be easier. So with that, I wish you and your family well, stay safe, and I am going to be praying for you and I hope that you will do the same for me.
Right now, the serious problem humanity is facing is COVID19. "We should stay alive and not catch this virus" shouldn't be a politically divisive statement, and isn't a politically divisive statement in any civilized country.

Why does everything have to become a liberal bashing comment? Can't you just say "I didn't like the jokes." and that be the end of it. Not everything is about politics.
