A long joke can be satisfying as it builds up the story, lets you imagine the situation, and gives you time to think about how you would act in it. However, at the end, you are presented with something completely unexpected, and that is what makes you laugh.

But short jokes like a one-liner can be good because they often rely on the play on words or familiar situations that immediately cause, if not have, a big laugh but at least make you smile. There is actually a whole subreddit dedicated to one-liners, and we collected the ones people found the funniest for you to enjoy.
