In a world full of serious news, it’s important to take a break and laugh sometimes. Here are some of the funniest events of 2023 so far:
- Elon Musk buys Twitter (and immediately starts making changes). Musk is known for his outspokenness and his willingness to challenge the status quo. So when he bought Twitter, everyone knew that things were going to get interesting. Musk has already made a number of changes to the platform, including loosening the rules on content moderation. This has led to some hilarious results, such as the return of Donald Trump to Twitter and the rise of a number of parody accounts.
- The release of the Barbie movie. The Barbie movie was one of the most anticipated films of the year, and it certainly didn’t disappoint. The film was a critical and commercial success, and it also spawned a number of hilarious memes. One of the most popular memes featured Ryan Gosling as Ken, giving a surprisingly serious performance in a Barbie movie.
- The coronation of King Charles III. The coronation of King Charles III was a major event in the UK, and it was also a major source of comedy. The internet was flooded with memes about the coronation, many of which poked fun at the pomp and ceremony of the event. One particularly popular meme featured a photo of the Queen Consort Camilla looking bored during the ceremony.
- The rise of ChatGPT. ChatGPT is a large language model from OpenAI that can generate text, translate languages, write different kinds of creative content, and answer your questions in an informative way. ChatGPT is still under development, but it has already become a popular source of comedy. One of the most popular ChatGPT memes is a video of ChatGPT trying to write a poem about a cat. The poem is hilarious and nonsensical, but it’s also a testament to the power of ChatGPT.
These are just a few of the funniest events of 2023 so far. With the year still half over, there’s sure to be even more laughter to come.
What makes these events so funny?
There are a number of reasons why these events are so funny. First, they are all unexpected. We didn’t expect Elon Musk to buy Twitter, we didn’t expect the Barbie movie to be so good, we didn’t expect the coronation of King Charles III to be so boring, and we didn’t expect ChatGPT to be so good at writing poems about cats.
Second, these events are all relatable. Everyone has used Twitter, everyone has seen a Barbie movie, everyone knows about the British royal family, and everyone has tried to write a funny poem at some point. This makes these events more relatable and accessible to a wider audience.
Finally, these events are all simply absurd. The idea of Elon Musk owning Twitter is ridiculous, the idea of a Ryan Gosling Barbie movie is even more ridiculous, the idea of a boring coronation is hilarious, and the idea of a large language model writing a poem about a cat is nothing short of absurd. This absurdity is what makes these events so funny.
