When it comes to humor, dads often steal the spotlight, but moms can be pretty hilarious too. That’s what this list proves. These 75 women have an absolutely incredible sense of humor and we think the world deserves to know about their comical genius.
Some of these moms are naturally funny. Others, it takes a little wine to coax the jokes out of them. But the one unifying thing that they all have in common is that they are always making everyone around them crack up with laughter.
Don’t believe us? Just have a look at the photo that this first mom took. She ran into rapper Waka Flocka Flame at the airport and sent her daughter a cool shot of them posing together. “You meet the nicest people when you travel with an open mind,” the mom wrote.
1. Moms Know
Oftentimes, moms know their kids better than the kids know themselves. That’s what happened here. “Mom says she knew I was gay before I did,” explains the Redditor. He didn’t believe her. Then she showed him this funny photo for proof.
2. Drinking Culture
This kid is heading off to college and as a going-away present, his mom handed him this mesh basket. She says it is the only cup that he is allowed to drink beer or alcohol out of! It might be the same size as a red Solo cup, but it’s much harder to use.
3. Volunteer Work
A couple of Mormons came to the front door trying to speak with the mom. She said she would hear them out, but that they might as well help her out with the garden while she listens. She had them digging around in the dirt in their Sunday best.
4. Team Effort
This is what it looks like when two moms try to give a cat a bath. It is a pretty goofy scenario and the cat doesn’t know what to think. Just have a look at the little furball’s face.
5. Baseball Selfie
The boys went to a baseball game and took a selfie to commemorate the moment. After one of them sent it to their moms, the women all got together to create a similar selfie of their own mocking their kids.
6. Meme Game
Moms can meme just as well as kids can. This photo proves it. The mom is currently in nursing school and sent this funny image that she created to her son the other day.
7. Birthday Wishes
The mom asked her son what picture he wanted on his birthday cake this year. He jokingly said, “Jesus riding a stegosaurus”. The mom complied, resulting in this ridiculous and delicious masterpiece.
8. Mom Jokes
As if the new t-shirt she bought wasn’t already goofy enough, the mom decided to make her daughter cringe even more by adding her own addition at the bottom. Then she took a picture of it and sent it to the family.
9. Cat’s Rights
No one deserves to be forced into a religion that they didn’t choose. According to this mom, even cats have religious rights. It may be a Christian cat. It may be a Muslim cat. The reality is that the family has no idea.
10. Deserving Of Extra Laps
The girl wanted her mom to write her a sick note to get her out of gym class that day. The girl handed it over to her teacher and was shocked when the man started cracking up. It turns out, she never actually read what her mom wrote.
11. Solid Comeback
This mom is not known for being funny — at least according to the daughter. She is certainly pretty quick with comebacks though. She had a great way of responding to the angry teen.
12. Lord Of The Rings Fan
This is a photo of the boy’s girlfriend’s mom. He thinks she is pretty awesome and we definitely agree. Not many moms out there would ever think of covering their faces with a creepy Gollum magazine photo like this one did.
13. Wine Moms
Some people do stupid things while drunk like jump in the swimming pool naked or shout at the sports match on the TV. This mom lined up all of the potatoes on the counter according to size. It’s good to keep organized, even whilst drinking.
14. Crying Baby
The grandma made this awesome gift for her granddaughter’s birthday. It’s an evolution of what the granddaughter’s temper tantrums look like. She is too young to appreciate the gift now, but one day she will love it, we’re sure.
15. Tie Twins
Every Christmas, this mom knits both her son and his cat a matching set of ties. While technically, there is no reason for a cat to ever wear a tie, that’s okay. The gift is completely adorable.
16. Dressed For Winter
Here we have another mom who is all about knitting goofy articles of clothing for cats. She made the kitten a silly hat and scarf combo to wear. Now it can play outside whenever it wants without worrying about catching a cold.
17. Absent Son
The son thought he was being very clever by sending his family a cardboard cutout of him so they wouldn’t miss him while he was studying abroad. The mom one-upped him. She took his cardboard cutout along to every family gathering that took place that year.
18. Bookmark Mom
The daughter asked her mom to get her a cool bookmark. The mom gave her this comical creation. She made it herself in the shape of her own image.
19. Girl Glasses
What’s up with the sunglasses? This mom wants to know. She found them in her house and decided to leave her son a note in an attempt to get to the bottom of the mystery.
20. Hotdoggers
“I’m gay, and my mom sent me this saying ‘remember your first wiener?'” the son explained. She is full of jokes. The photo features him riding in a tiny Oscar Mayer Wienermobile as a young child.
21. Looking For A Mate
Check out this creative sign that the mom has hanging up in the laundry room. Socks without a pair typically end up in the garbage. However, for these single socks, there is still some hope.
22. Long Distance Calls
This mom told the kids that the only way to talk to Santa was by using daddy’s feet. Now, they bother him all the time to make a call and put in their gift requests. The husband just plays along.
23. Mom OMG
We all make typing mistakes every once and a while. This mom takes full advantage of her kids’ texting errors, using them as an opportunity to show them how clever she is. The kids don’t really appreciate it.
24. Minor Stab
The mom broke a knife by accident and then decided to use it to prank the family. Don’t worry. It’s not actually a serious injury, although, it certainly looks that way.

25. Accidents Happen
The daughter heard her mom gasp from the kitchen. She went to check on her and see what happened. “I peed on the floor,” the mom told the daughter with a smirk.
26. Text Baiting
It’s pretty common that teens would ignore a parent’s texts. This mom found an ingenious way of getting her daughter to respond though. She played the whole “we’re getting you a car” trick.
27. Wrapping Professional
If one thing is for sure, it’s that mom’s are the best at wrapping presents. While dads typically use newspaper, moms always find creative ways to outshine everyone else. Just look at how this mom wrapped her daughter’s rug for Christmas.
28. Inquisitive Cat
The mom was trying to broach the topic of condoms in a non-intrusive manner and decided to enlist the cat to help her. Sex isn’t an easy topic to cover. It’s much less awkward if you use cats.
29. Public Space Travel
They were out shopping when the kid put a plastic trash can over his head and said he was an astronaut. The mom told him that two could play at that game. Now they are both embarrassing each other.
30. Love Of Law

31. Dark Lord Of The North Pole
When the nephew accidentally broke Santa’s head off, the mom found a great way to remedy the situation. She simply attached a Darth Vader head there instead. No one will mess with Santa now.
32. Awaiting Your Arrival
The mom cleaned her son’s room while he was out of the house and left him a friend waiting for him on his bed. The son isn’t having very much luck with dating any humans, so she figured he might appreciate the female monkey.
33. Motherly Love
It’s not just the sons who get harassed by their moms about dating either. The daughters often get a gentle ribbing too. Take, for example, this good morning text that the mom sent out to her little angel recently.
34. Rebel Knitter
Most moms are pretty casual with their knitting. They make their kids cute clothing and hats that the kids will never actually wear. However, the mittens that this mom made are actually pretty badass.
35. Still Got It
Check out the youthful curves on this 70-year-old mom! It turns out, the mom actually is standing in front of a pair of mannequin legs and pulled her jacket over them. It’s all an illusion.
36. Sleepover Preparations
This son told his parents that he was coming to spend the night at their house. His mom got the couch ready for him. She set him up with some very age-appropriate sheets. He is 27 years old, but still a baby in her mind.

43. Party Hounds
We don’t know which part is funnier — the fact that the mom owns four boxers or the fact she bought each of them a purple hat to wear? If one thing’s for sure though, it’s that she’s a great trainer. Somehow she was able to get them all to sit there calmly while she took the picture.
44. Valuable Sweets
The son asked his mom for some cash for his birthday this year instead of a gift. She thought just handing the bills over would be too boring so she wrapped each one up in a Tootsie Roll wrapper. At first, he thought he was simply receiving candy.
45. Star Struck
“My mom asked NBA point guard Deron Williams if she could take a picture of his shirt,” the son explained. “He thought she was a fan just trying to get a picture of him”. However, the fact that she didn’t capture the athlete’s head in the shot proves otherwise.
46. Graduation Bingo
The mom made this comical Bingo card for the family to play while they attended a graduation ceremony. It includes things like spotting a female graduate wearing hooker heels or someone making a sports analogy in a speech.
