Stand-up comedy is still alive and well. Funny people can still be funny. You just have to tell jokes outside. Away from the audience. Or inside a room via your computer. Away from everyone. But, it's still...sort of around? After months of sitting in a dark room watching funny stuff on a screen, my big dream is to go to a different dark room, and watch funny stuff near other human beings. My second goal is to get back on stage and do comedy myself again. I devoted 15 years of my life to a medium that all but disappeared in March of 2020. The only silver lining is that comedians all turned to the internet at the same time, and continued to write jokes.

Here are the funniest standupshots I had time to find this month:

It's widely known that Donald Trump hasn't followed many of the traditions that come with being the president of the United States but before officially leaving office he did decide to participate by leaving a note for Joe Biden. These letters are usually words of encouragement and wisdom for the next president but people on Twitter are taking funny guesses at what the note Donald Trump left for Joe Biden says. I hope we get to read it someday, but for now, I'll settle for these funny tweets.

Wow, no thank you. That's what I have to say about all these pics. Some are funny. Some are weird. Some make me want to crawl into a tiny hole and never see the light of day again. Please, I beg you. Look at these photos and tell me everything is going to be all right. I'm scared. Help. Help me. Maybe if we all look at the funny pictures we can laugh off what we're seeing. Likely, we'll be on our deathbeds, thinking of these images. Perhaps, the memory will bring a smile to our faces. Perhaps, we will shuffle off this mortal coil thinking of the photos of Michael Jackson photoshopped to look like Buffy.

Here are some funny and creepy photos that made me say "NOPE":

"Nailed it!" is what I say each time I see photos like this. I have to do it out loud because then I can finally feel like I'm socializing. It's not "talking to yourself" if you're responding to a picture of something awful and funny happening. It's called empathy. I empathize with the people in these pictures. They were trying their best? Maybe not. Maybe now that Nailed It is a show on Netflix, some of these people are purposefully not trying at all. Either way, it's funny. I'm happy they tried.

Here are people out in the world who said "today is the day I'm going to shout 'nailed it!'" and they did, in fact, nail it:

Whenever you tell someone you're thinking about getting a tattoo, the response is always the same: "won't you regret it when you're older?" To those people, I say: "Who cares?" But then I qualify it with this list of hilarious tattoo fails, because, well, because a tattoo of Ronald McDonald's pubes (#12) is just gonna be something you look at, someday, and say "Hmm. Maybe should have stuck with a rose or a tribal mark?" In any event, thankfully there never seems to be a shortage of people sharing bad tattoos on the web. From bad artists who didn't quite get it right to people who should have used spellcheck first,  scroll down below to see the worst tattoos ever.

We are almost there—the end of the year 2020. This year will go down as the biggest dumpster fire of a year in our lifetime (hopefully). We had a global pandemic that quarantined us to our homes for almost a year and exposed which of our friends and relatives are truly idiotic assholes. Then summer of global protests for social, economic, and environmental change. Then a highly anticipated, completely chaotic, socially distant general election season. We also lost Kobe, Chadwick Boseman, RBG, and Alex Trebek. 2020 has been one cruel son of a b*tch. But if you're one of the lucky ones who's alive with a roof over your head and still has access to the internet—congratulations! The survival of a year like this has granted us the ultimate shaming rights when our grandkids start acting up in 30 somethin' years. We're all hoping 2021 brings a new and better vibe but before we get too ahead of ourselves, there's still time for 2020 to land one final blow. So in anticipation of whatever worse thing could possibly happen before the end of this year, let's go ahead and honor these twelve months in the only way it deserves—a list of memes.
