Text-Based Humor For People Who Read Good

It is pretty easy to get sucked into the seductive world of memes with images. The bold colors. Deep frying. Cursed images. And of course, iconic human subjects. The images manage to do a lot of talking without actually talking. Just imagine the Distracted Boyfriend meme without its now-famous trio of stock photo models. Describing the comically exagerrated situation simply doesn't have the same effect. While we do love that brand of object-labeling meme, and enjoy the tweet-derived style of text above an image, there is something to be said for humor or intrigue that's conveyed with just words. Tumblr and Twitter are places where people excel at this - creating word-based humor that's sharable and a little more accessible to, say, blind people. To prove their might, we've got some of those titillating textual tidbits right here for you. We would wager that your brain will thank you for the intellectual exercise.
