I wish I had even half the sharpness of these commenters who effortlessly win the internet with their replies! But if you’re like me and feeling a little daunted about landing a knockout joke, don’t worry—humor is a muscle that can be stretched. It just takes a little time, practice, and effort.
This... this guy is real... I thought it was those net adds that always use the same people...
Learn to kìll.... check. Learn to heal...check. Decide people are annoying dead or alive and head to the vast empty void of space...check. I truly respect the philosophical journey this man has taken.
But can he make a decent PB&J? I’m surprised how many people can’t.

and his mom will still go "yes, my son is a *doctor*" (based off of stereotypes of jewish moms, which are pretty similar to the asian mom stereotype)
Imagine having the parental resources to change jobs like this and just go to university and di what you want? Good on him but I couldn't afford any if these things.
Yeah but you're completely wrong. His parents emigrated from South Korea in the 80's and his father, who had barely completed high school education, opened a liquor store in California. His father was abusive and eventually shot dead by police. Don't judge anothers achievements and don't blame your lack of "parental resources" for anything. Jonny Kim achieved al this because of who he was...not because of who his parents were.
Load More Replies...Omg, Wesley Chu, same. Same. I can hear the disapproving glare at me already.
About 20 years of training, and he hasn't aged a bit!! Aww, bless - must have chosen his parents wisely to get those great genes!!
Oh why can't you be like Jonny dear! Here he has three carrers and well!!! The implyed silence would be so painful
Now that's what I call "not knowing what you want to be when you grow up". . .!
(((Me...shrinking, embarrassed in my chair as I have not achieved ANYTHING close to that))
This guy reminds me of the old joke: I was going through my new girlfriend's wardrobe and I found a nurse's outfit, a Policewoman's uniform and a nun's habit. I broke up with her - I need someone who can hold down a job...
He became disillusioned with medicine, and tried to flee to outer space?
Jonny must've had very encouraging parents/grandparents; or, most likely, was very internally driven.
I read that as Jimmy Kimmel and did a crazy what face. Not sure if it’s speed reading or my gummy just kicked in. He is sometimes funny but navy seal? Yeah maybe the seals who like a belly rub and jump onto random boats to get away from Bruce and Shamu.
Fresh fruits, fresh veggies, yeah... that's easily gonna cost your first born
The Big Belly Comedy Club has some fantastic tips on how to be funnier—not on the stage, but in everyday conversations. The first step is finding your unique sense of humor. “In comedy, we call this finding your comedic voice,” says the club.
What does ‘finding your comedic voice’ mean exactly? Well, everyone has their own comedic style. You can tune into yours by noticing what makes you laugh and which funny thoughts pop into your mind. Maybe you’re naturally sarcastic, self-deprecating, or prefer to be uplifting. By becoming more aware of what you find funny, you can gradually start weaving it into your conversations and comments.
Remember to consider who you’re speaking to, too. “What makes your friends or colleagues laugh may not have the same effect on a different group of people,” says Big Belly Comedy Club. If you’re aiming for a funny comment, keep the context, the person who posted, and even the group in mind to nail the right tone.
For more inspiration, watch comedy shows, stand-up routines, and sitcoms. Pay attention to not just the jokes but also the timing, delivery, and wordplay. Try to incorporate some of these techniques into your own interactions, and spend time around people you find funny to pick up on what makes them shine.
I'd be more concerned about those radioactive presents by the fireplace. Looks like they're about to reach critical mass.
And don’t underestimate the power of memorizing and having a few jokes up your sleeve. “While canned jokes are not always funny,” Big Belly Comedy Club reminds us, “having a few well-timed and appropriate jokes can lighten the mood and bring laughter to social situations.”
Now it’s time for practice—after all, theory will only get you so far. “Like any skill, developing your sense of humor requires practice. Look for opportunities to make others laugh, whether it’s through casual conversations, presentations, or social gatherings,” says the team at Big Belly. “The more you practice, the more comfortable and confident you will become in using humor.”
Me too, and I'm a vegetarian. I'd be there cheering them on!! VEGAN KARENS!!!
That said, don’t overdo it. Trying too hard to turn every moment into a joke can backfire and come across as desperate. “Let humor arise naturally in conversations and use it as a way to connect with others, rather than as a performance to impress,” advises Big Belly Comedy Club.
Hopefully, with these tips, you’ll be on your way to becoming the wittiest friend—and maybe, just maybe, we’ll see your clever replies on the ‘Epic Top Comments 2.0’ page soon!
Worked in a 100 yr old school. Took me a LONG time to swap out all the painted switch and outlet plates. My God people, it's a screwdriver, not a computer program. Paint the wall, by the time you get to the end the paint is dry enough to reattach the plates.
And whenever you reach into the drawer for a spoon without looking, it's always the one you get first.
Of all the garbage shows my wife makes me watch this one irks me the most. Just terrible acting, terrible plots, terrible dialogue, ridiculous clown costumes. Just complete garbage.
I think that hiding dark mode behind a premium paywall is an absolute garbage move.
I'm not at all tech-minded and have no idea what dark mode even is.

Oh... you had to mess with it? ublock plus an open source app and a 30 dollar raspberry pi with said blocking software.
Load More Replies...If I want dark mode I can just lower my screen brightness. Job done.
Why is so much of Bored Panda a repeat of what I read the last time I read Bored Panda?
"Dark Reader" works (on my desktop), it's a browser extension. I've given up going through any BP on my tablet, the ads are unbearable.
Fun but way too many posts bashing food just for being vegan. Seriously, try it. I'm not saying become vegan, I'm just saying, TRY THIS FOOD. It's absolutely amazing.
I'm not vegan, but I eat some vegan food. But I eat meat as well. I only have meat or fish once a day.
Load More Replies...So many of these comments are just straight on bullying or showing that the commenter has no idea what they're commenting on.
Or, and please hear me out, they're just tongue-in-cheek jokey comments.
