Some of the funniest people you will encounter aren’t always the legendary stand-up comedians that headline the biggest stages. Many of them hide behind usernames, dropping perfectly timed punchlines in social media comment sections.
Some of their wisecracks have drawn attention, enough to be featured on the Funny Comments subreddit. Scrolling through the page, you will realize that comment boxes aren’t always filled with toxicity and division. Other times, they are a goldmine of jokes that would elicit at least one legitimate “ha-ha” from readers.
Here are some of those posts, which we’ve compiled for your entertainment today.

Some of the funniest comments you will read on social media are driven by impeccable comedic timing. In the context of stand-up comedy, for example, it’s when a comic relies on pacing and rhythm to enhance the delivery of their punchlines.
Proper timing is necessary to make a joke land well. Do it wrong, and you may decrease its impact, or even alter its meaning.

Unlike with verbal punchlines, timing in written jokes can be achieved through punctuation, line breaks, or ellipses to indicate a pause in the conversation. Another way is to make readers stop scrolling through a witty retort, much like many of the comments you will see featured on this list.

Written humor goes a long way in terms of engaging readers and bringing attention to your social media presence, for example. According to surveys, funny quips increase a post’s shareability by 43%.
It’s why many UK brands are using humor to connect with their audiences and potential customers. As Sprout Social confirms, the trademark brand of dry British humor has been part of marketing strategies so far.

If you’re a company that intends to incorporate humor into its social media communication strategy, there are pitfalls to steer clear of. According to Aventi Group, harmful stereotypes and culturally sensitive remarks should be avoided.
This tactic is known as “punching down,” and it almost always lands poorly for anyone who goes down that route. Many celebrities have been either criticized or even ostracized by Hollywood for incorporating this tactic.
