Yeah, I hate the Chuck Norris jokes too. I'm told that if you've seen his movies, it helps, but I dunno. I think Walker, Texas Ranger was funny enough in and of itself. I also generally don't think much of "your mom" jokes (even though I end every single one of my posts with one... Guess it's not really a joke.) I guess I could see how a your mom joke being told very poorly could be funny, though, although that goes for most things. "You're mom's too big for the internet." -My friend, muttered whilst half awake. Also, not a fan of jokes being told when someone is trying to have a serious conversation, especially if it's at the person's expense who is trying to be serious. Dick move. I mean, if the intention is to truly lighten the mood and to ease everyone involved up a little bit, I can appreciate that, I guess. Or if the targeted individual is being a total boner, although that's kinda subjective. I do love me some Monty Python, though. Also, America's Funniest Home Videos.

Parodies of things that are already funny. No, that's not clever. You just recycled the original material and made it more stupid. Also, "jokes" that are just straight up insults or rants against someone or something. Occasionally it's funny if done correctly, but I don't think the majority of the internet know how to do it right. The majority of the time that I see the internet try to do it, I think, "Jee, you're kinda an asshole." EDIT: An example of it being done "right" = the late, great George Carlin. Anyhoo...
