40 Pictures You Can't Look at for Too Long Without Dying of Laughter
Updated Feb. 10 2021, 9:36 a.m. ET
There have been tons of articles written on how millennial humor is too weird to define, but I would argue that there are some things that are funny and you can't explain why.
Lots of times having to explain why something is funny sucks all the joy out of it.
