How Do We Rate The Jokes?

LA : Language Warning
Jokes that contain words you wouldn't use around your mother.

NU : Talk About Nudity
Jokes that talk about people being without clothing, and usually in strange circumstances. There is no reference to sexuality in this rating - that's covered elsewhere.

PO : Potty Talk
Jokes which contain scenes or descriptions of people doing what we would normally do in a bathroom (for example, urinating).

RE : Talk About Religion
Jokes that contain references to either one specific religion or just talk about religion in general.

RS : Racial Stereotypes
Jokes that portray one or more races of people in stereotypical fashion. See General Stereotypes for a quick example of "what is a stereotype?"

GS : General Stereotypes
Jokes that portray certain groups of people in a stereotypical fashion not covered under "racial stereotypes". Some examples of jokes that would contain this rating are jokes that:

SC : Mild Sexual Content
Jokes with sexual innuendos or vague references to people having sex. No graphic descriptions.

VI : Violence
Jokes with people being physically hurt in some manner.

XX : Heavy Sexual Content
Jokes that contain more than just talk about sex. Sex is either graphically described, or the sexual acts in the joke are way dirtier than the missionary position. Jokes with this rating usually contain a language warning as well.

What happens when you submit a joke?

Your joke is accepted and entered into our database, but it is marked "not public". Then, a staff member reviews the joke for spelling errors, and makes sure that you have correctly rated the joke. After that, the joke is marked "public", and placed in our queue of jokes to be delivered.

I submitted a joke - where is it?

We do not currently provide confirmation of receipt for the jokes that are submitted. If it's been a long time and you haven't seen your joke, then one of three things has happened:

  1. your joke was censored, and we will not publish it
  2. your joke is a duplicate of one that we've already sent out
  3. the joke queue is so big that we just haven't gotten to yours yet
