Hi there, I'm getting consumed by monotony and lockdown blues. 😢 It's Friday and I'm sure some of us could use some uplifting.

So, by any means:

Please drop the BEST dev joke or pun that you know! Memes are very welcome too!

No joke or pun is too silly. Drop them below and make someone's day! 😊

I'll be lurking...

This was just on twitter:

where do Javascript developers wash their hands?

in async... 🤣

[maker]

but why don't some wash their hands?

the await is too long

😑

(I'll leave)

[🐤🥇 Jasper de Jager]

I yield 🤣

[maker]

[InHuOfficial]

Ok I love this one!

[Lesly Villalobos]

hahaha good one

[atulit023]

😂🤷 I didn't even got the thing, still I'm laughing lol

[🐤🥇 Jasper de Jager]

If you Google javascript async I promise it will get resolved.

Then you'll be like
Aaaaaaaawait
Now I get it

[atulit023]

I know what that is 😹 but now I got it
async as in wash bowl (a sink)

I told this joke when I was interviewed for the job I still have today (eight years on April 22nd):

This one programmer is showing his new keyboard to another one. "Hey man, you've got to see this, my new keyboard is made out of solid metal!"

His friend says, "Why on Earth? Are you using it to stop bullets or something?"

"No, but Java is strongly typed!"

[Amelia Vieira Rosado]

Didn't see that coming! 🤣 Thanks for sharing @johnmunsch !

[James Prince]

Awesome joke. I bet the interviewers burst into laughter 😂!

[Ruth Evans]

An oldie:
A developer is going to the shops and asks their partner if they need anything, "yes" they say, "milk, and if they have eggs get 6".
When the developer returns they unpack the shopping and their partner exclaims "why did you get 6 bottles of milk?"
The developer replies: "Because they had eggs"

[Raphaël Pinson]

Another time, the dev is at the shop and gets a phone call from their partner, who tells them, "While you're there, get some bread."

The dev never returned.

[Akhil Naidu]

Nailed it!

[Amelia Vieira Rosado]

CLASSIC! 😂😂😂

[Hachikoi]

Seems plausible, when you type code to much your toughs kind become like that, I´d do it just for the meme

[Juan F Gonzalez]

I found one on Twitter as well that went like...
Why you shouldn't trust JavaScript programmers?

Because they make lots of promises but they never callback.

[🐤🥇 Jasper de Jager]

Good one! 🤣

[Amelia Vieira Rosado]

HAHAHAHAHA oh my! 🤣🤣🤣

[InHuOfficial]

I am quite a fan of this one

[Amelia Vieira Rosado]

Hahaha, this one's advanced! 😂🤣

[Poly]

Clever indeed. 😂

[Raphaël Pinson]

As a systems engineer, I'd tell you a UDP joke, but I'm afraid you wouldn't get it.

[Nefomemes]

I will give you a handshake for that.

[Amelia Vieira Rosado]

hahahah, GENIUS! 😂

I read this on some article but I don't remember

.ninja {
    color: black;
    visibility: hidden;
    animation-duration: 0.00000001s;
}

#rap-artists {
    word-spacing: 0;
}

#tower-of-pisa {
    font-style: italic;
}

#monarch {
    position: inherit;
}

#big-bang::before {
    content: "";
}

[myleftshoe]

Yes, before the big bang there was an just an empty string. Maybe they'll be able to detect remants of the quotation marks

[Siddharth]

Only if they had the source code...

[Siddharth]

😂😂😂 Yeah.

My friend told me that the cycle of coding is "code -> do a mistake -> learn -> repeat".
Me: RuntimeError: Maximum Rucursion Depth Exceeded. Line repeated 100000 times

[Amelia Vieira Rosado]

Did that cause a Stackoverflow? 🤔😂

[Samuel Roland]

A very famous one is:
There are only 10 types of people in the world: those who understand binary and those who don’t.
A more useful resource is if you are searching for jokes: t.me/programmerjokes

Hahahhaha, this one's great! 😜😂

Do you know how programmers accuse someone being the impostor in Among Us?

They say "Red sass"

Some people, when confronted with a problem, think "I know, I'll use regular expressions." Now they have two problems.
