None of the above?
You have to remember that most of the regulars here are both adults (in some cases senior citizens) and developers (in many cases of long standing): they have heard most "programming jokes" many, many times before, and know how to find "funny video clips".
So if you want to be interesting, popular - whatever it is that you want - then posting stuff we already know isn't likely to do that ... Stop treating this as Twatter or FarceBook and you'll probably fit in better. Just a thought.

Instead of spending time daily on things which may seem unnecessary by others, better spend a quality time of a couple of months to produce a solid article on a programming topic of your choice. And post it.

No, I think the answer is: None of the above. As @OriginalGriff already mentioned, most of us have heard all the programming jokes we want. TBH you are more likely to be flagged as a spammer if you persist.

The Dad jokes were not Dad jokes, they were just bad.
Quote: but like memes do
Memes do not bring joy to (most) adults.Quote: And if you have any suggestions for themes of jokes, let me know.
Please stop.
You've had a couple of good suggestions here ...Amarnath S: Instead of spending time daily on things which may seem unnecessary by others, better spend a quality time of a couple of months to produce a solid article on a programming topic of your choice. And post it.
Richard MacCutchan: No, I think the answer is: None of the above. As @OriginalGriff already mentioned, most of us have heard all the programming jokes we want. TBH you are more likely to be flagged as a spammer if you persist.

Personally I was thinking along the same lines of Richard - and almost flagged you as a troll. Others may be less patient

If you're learning programming in school I suggest posting a daily this is what I learned today can anyone comment, improve or extrapolate.
You'd get a much friendlier crowd.
The less you need, the more you have.

I'd imagine that there would be lots of 'interesting' comments if they began posting something like this.

If he posted in the Lounge, sure. But posting in the appropriate programming language discussion might better received.
Keep Calm and Carry On

Heck no, actually I think the teacher flaming interesting comments could be funny, at least for a few days.

Just... Don't.

I think what people try to tell you is that you there is 2 problem with your attempt at communication
- it's a website about people interested in programming, mostly in a practical professional fashion, it's not clear what you doing here...
- most people here are well past their teenage years (professional programmer, you know) and, well, they don't have the same sense of humor or interests..

I hope you soon find yourself free of the compulsion to post any whatever-of-the-day, and find you can use the psychic energy freed up to do more constructive, meaningful ... things.
cheers, Bill

Quote: Believe it or not, I like to read as well.
I have been around here for 8 years and joined to ask for help with a coding problem because I was tired of the lack of friendliness on SO. I soon realized the professional level of expertise in the community.
Nonsense was at a much higher level of learning and the interchange of banter was more sophisticated than high school or bar room jokes. So as you stated in your BIO you like to read.
Just a suggestion Read along for a while and get the feel of the community.
I am NOT saying Don't contribute just think about the audience.
A chef would not add pudding to a dish of Lasagne
At 16 you should be appalled for wanting to contribute just ask yourself if the Sangria would make the Lasagne taste better.

exactly.
The problem does not lie with the person selling the farts but rather with the person buying them.
after all, we are all just trying to earn a living.

The term "Disposable Income" tends to spring to mind.
Also the name of my self funded motorcycle racing team before I ran out of money and had to start writing code instead.
