There are plenty of joke categories, but none other gets as much attention as the bad joke category. The stuff that is so bad that it becomes belly achingly hilarious has been known since the dawn of Earth. It has relentlessly followed humanity throughout its stages of development. And while in the prehistoric ages, one might’ve found themselves laughing at ‘ooga booga,’ then as early as the Middle Ages, it was common to laugh at depictions of knights fighting snails. This was probably considered the lamest joke ever, but even after eons have passed, we still find it so bad that it’s funny. And while most of these bad jokes now come in the visual form of memes, the written word still prevails, and we have proof of it - this thorough list of funny bad jokes!

To make it even, we’ve discovered that plenty of sub-categories fall under the umbrella of bad jokes. There, of course, are some lame puns in here and, needless to say, quite a few dad jokes. And with such an array of categories, the topics are practically inexhaustible. So, from fishing matters to teachers and from kids to horses, there indeed is a joke for you, me, and all the rest of the gang. All that’s left to do here is to check out the lame jokes and see which ones you find the greatest. Once the winners are discerned, be sure to vote for them so they can live on forever in the Universe of the Internet. Also, don’t forget to share these silly jokes with those around you; you might make their day so much brighter!

A 'faux pas' is pronounced 'fo pa' and is a French phrase meaning inappropriate remark or action. Faux pas is a phrase the whole world knows - apart from you. The word 'faux' is French for 'false' so the joke revolves around false dad joke and faux pas.
