35 ‘Funny Charts’ That Got This Online Community Cracking Up

Generally, when most of us think about a good time or a funny meme, it doesn’t have, say, an x and y axis or data labels. But it’s important to not limit yourself, the truth is that clever folks out there can make good content out of anything.

The “Funny Charts” online group is dedicated to amusing, creative, and informative graphs that attempt to mix data with humor. From helpful guides to assist in creating insults, to statistical breakdowns of Eminem’s songs, get comfortable as you scroll through, upvote your favorites, and be sure to share your thoughts in the comments section.

Sitting at over fifteen thousand followers, the "Funny Charts" internet group is on an important mission to reclaim graphs from the clutches (and notoriety) of maths and economics. As is clearly on display here, a little creative spark can do wonders. Indeed, if you take a step back, it's easy to see how the standard structure of memes actually fits pretty well. 

After all, memes tend to use standard, recognized layouts to communicate the joke. This is just as true for graphs, which need to have certain attributes to even function. Despite their reputation as a dry, analytical tool, it's worth giving graphs and charts a second chance. Indeed, unlike "raw" text, it's a pretty visual way to showcase information.

#6 It's Math

It's not that hard to imagine more artistically inclined people being able to engage with data displayed this way. Research does suggest that visual indicators are actually pretty important in learning. You might say, well, a graph is just words and figures laid out on a matrix, not a paragraph, but it's important to note that the visual layout is a key component in what we take away from this sort of information.

This is all to say that it's unfair to pigeonhole graphs and charts into the "boring" category. The items here are a clear indicator that it's a lot more complex than that. So be sure to perhaps save the items here that you might find useful later. Even as a text-biased observer, I have to admit, that it's a lot faster to glance at a chart than pursue a block of text.
