These 19 subreddits are some of the funniest subreddits on the entire site. Sit back and laugh at cute animals, other people’s blunders, and enjoy a hefty dose of schadenfreude. Make sure to sort by the top posts of all time to see the best of the best.
r/Funny
r/Funny is the home of all things comedy on Reddit. That said, it’s one of the largest subreddits on the site, which means it catches a little bit of humor of every type. You might not enjoy everything you find there, but you’ll enjoy something.
r/AskReddit
r/AskReddit isn’t comedic; instead, users post questions that others can answer. This results in threads with thousands of comments, many of which are hysterical stories worth a read. Just search “funny” in the Reddit search bar to find questions that interest you. We suggest, “What jokes are so dumb they’re actually funny?”
r/RoastMe
Feel like having a laugh at someone else’s expense? r/RoastMe is the place to go for some really sick burns. People bring it upon themselves by posting pics usually holding a piece of paper that says “Roast Me” along with the date and their Reddit handle. It’s amazing how good some of the comments can be and quite hysterical to read.
r/HoldMyBeer
r/HoldMyBeer is a collection of images and videos of people taking stupid, alcohol-fueled risks. It’s kind of like America’s Funniest Videos if AFV only featured fraternity shenanigans. Don’t worry, there’s no gore or death shown — just silliness that typically does not end well for those involved.
r/Aww
Had a rough day? Then r/Aww is the place for you. It’s a collection of adorable pictures of animals and babies, often doing something funny. It’s an easy place to check for a wholesome, good-hearted laugh. Who doesn’t want to see a video of a giant dog in a backpack, enjoying the breeze in his hair?
r/StartledCats
Everyone loves cat videos, right? The internet is built on them. Videos of startled cats are even funnier, even if you do feel a little bad for your feline friends. r/StartledCats is one of the funniest subreddits full of hilarious videos of cats reacting to sudden movements or just everyday human activities that they don’t fully understand.
r/AnimalsBeingDerps
Following the vein of animal-related laughs, r/AnimalsBeingDerps shows animals acting like their silly, wonderful selves. Come on: the top post of all time is about a sleeping baby elephant.
r/AnimalsBeingConfused

r/BlunderYears

r/CringePics
Everyone has sent a regrettable message at some time in the past, but r/CringePics is a collection of the worst possible messages and social media posts. Its slogan is right: they just hurt to look at — but you will laugh, if only out of pity.
r/DiWHY
Do you have a friend that believes they can fix any problem themselves without the need to hire professionals? Does it ever work out for them? r/DiWHY is the result of people attempting projects that they probably should have just paid for.
r/ContagiousLaughter
