Humor
A large part of the humor in many of these contests involves the use of internet memes.
Such contests are nowadays finding increasing participations in many blogs. A more "underground" variety of these image manipulation jokes involves the blending of celebrity faces with nude or pornographic images, often combined with references to movies, music, magazines and other forms of related popular culture.

Famous quotes containing the word humor:
“I made him a low curtsy and thanked him for the honor he intended me, but told him I had no kind of ambition to be his upper servant.... I then asked him how many offices he had allotted for me to perform for those great advantages he had offered me, of suffering me to humor him in all his whims and to receive meat, drink, and lodging at his hands; but hoped he would allow me some small wages, that I might now and then recreate myself with my fellow servants.”
—Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)
“Was ever woman in this humor wooed?
Was ever woman in this humor won?”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Everything human is pathetic. The secret source of Humor itself is not joy but sorrow. There is no humor in heaven.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
