Jokes Since the Internet

The Funniest

I loathe everything about this article except for moi.

IT HAS been 29 years since computer scientist Sir Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web, and we can’t imagine life without it. As one humorist noted, “I put so much more effort into naming my first Wi-Fi than my first child.”

For many of us, surfing is now our major form of entertainment:

“9 a.m.: Very busy day today. I need to focus and stay off the Internet.

“1 p.m.: Did you know that Texas has the largest population of prairie dogs?” — @sortabad

And it’s the primary way we express ourselves:

Facebook: “My kids are perfect.”

Instagram: “My kids are beautiful.” Twitter: “My kids are why I drink.” — @XplodingUnicorn

In true Digest tradition, we’ve collected the best online gags, giggles, and spoofs. Did we miss your favorite? Send it to us at rd.com/laughter.

The FUNNIEST

INTERNET STAR

Finicky Feline

Grumpy Cat (that’s her frowning to the left) made a name for herself in 2012 when her dour puss struck a chord with like-minded humans. Kitties, it turns out, are the cat’s meow online, and former web editor Emily Huh has a theory why. Unlike dog owners, who can visit dog parks, “Cat owners don't have a cat park where they can congregate to talk about their cats,” she told hellogiggles.com. In other words, the Internet is the dog park for cat people.
