Let’s be honest: dark humor jokes are not for everyone. Not for every place, either. You have to be able to read the room almost perfectly in order to get the best reaction to these twisted jokes. Don’t go around strangers cracking dark jokes. You never know the backstory of the person and how they will react to your dark humor jokes with no limits. But if you’re in a circle of close friends whom you know are open to this kind of humor, crack away!

This type of humor can really make your stomach hurt. A dark joke can consist of many things, and you can flavor it to fit any occasion. Some of them are straight-up offensive jokes, others can involve a gut-bending plot twist. There are even some dark-humored dad jokes! But, as we mentioned, it takes two to tango, so the recipient of the joke is just as important as the corny joke itself.

If you are looking for the very best dark jokes to tell your friends, we’ve got you covered. Bored Panda community voted for and picked the very best ones. Hence, we’re confident that the first ten entries on this list can be dubbed the top 10 dark humor jokes on the internet.
