One-liners, funny single-lined jokes
What kind of funny humor is a one-liner? A one-liner is a joke that is delivered in a single line.
Are they as funny as a funny blog, funny clips or funny pictures?
A one-liner is a joke that takes to its heart the principle that brevity is the soul of wit.
One-liners are known for eliciting cheap, quick laughs, but they can become tiresome to audiences when used excessively by a performer.
An example of moviestars using one-liners frequently is Arnold Schwarzenegger.
One-liner jokes are still very populair, also by stand-up comedians.
