Search Engines are machines, not people, so when they read our funny stories or political satire, they think this site is about news stories or politics. Actually, this site is about humor, comedy, political satire, fun, and good clean jokes. Readers do not need to be told that funny stuff is funny - it is either humorous or not humorous. But machines cannot distinguish serious news from political satire, twisted humor, humorous quotes, or really funny jokes.
Every day thousands of people search for funny things, hilarious jokes, college humor, and political cartoons. DUH Magazine is a fun source for all these things, but search engines interpret our news headlines and commentary as political analysis instead of political satire, comic relief, parody, and hilarious jokes. Everyone's day needs a few laughs, puns, priceless humor, and really funny quick jokes. To make these easier to find, we could have organized our site into sections like "joke of the day", "humorous quotes", "funny stories", "college humor", "political satire", "twisted humor", "clean short jokes", "really funny stuff", or "just for laughs". But because the news stories are current, real and timely, all new comedy and funny stuff are simply posted on the home page.
Other comic formats like political cartoons, stand up comedy, or humorous monologues often use material very similar to DUH Magazine jokes and satire, i.e., a comedian on comedy central might start with current events or news stories, and turn the story into twisted humor, political satire, or other funny junk. Or a political cartoon will refer to a recent news item, and turn it into satire or parody.
DUH Magazine tries to include only clean jokes, funny jokes, short jokes, family oriented funny stuff, christian humor and other clean funny things. In the end, people need to laugh, and DUH Magazine is just for laughs.
Headlines so dumb they deserve to be misinterpreted.

Some facts are weirder than fiction.
Exactly: “Sporting a wig, sunglasses, nail polish and old-fashioned garb, Thomas Parkin started dressing up as his dead mother and managed to collect more than $100,000 in Social Security benefits and rent subsidies.” Must have been the “Love You, Mom” tattoo that gave him away.
Exactly: “NYC Woman Believes Her Father Lay Dead Inside His Car For Weeks While Police Wrote Tickets Over And Over.” Apparently, no ‘moving’ violations were included.
Exactly: “A Chinese man was pushed off a bridge by an angry passer-by after his threat to commit suicide held up traffic for five hours, Chinese media reported on Saturday.” The assailant has likely blown his chances of becoming a suicide hotline counselor.
Exactly: “CHEYENNE, Wyo. – Two seasonal Yellowstone National Park concession workers have been fired after a live webcam caught them urinating into the Old Faithful geyser. The geyser was not erupting at the time.” Now that would have been interesting!
Exactly: “SAN JOSE, Calif. - An office worker cleaning a fridge full of rotten food created a smell so noxious that it sent seven co-workers to the hospital and made many others ill. A hazmat team was called in. The mixture of old lunches and disinfectant caused 28 people to need treatment for vomiting and nausea. Authorities say the worker who cleaned the fridge didn’t need treatment — she can’t smell because of allergies.”
Exactly: “Police didn’t have to dust for fingerprints to find this suspect — they just rifled through the wallet he left behind at the scene. Albert Vincent Perkins was charged with robbing First Federal Bank in Kansas City on Thursday. Police said he walked into the bank, handed the teller a plastic bag and ordered her to give him all of the $100 bills. Then he walked out of the bank — but left his wallet sitting on the counter.”
Exactly: “SINGAPORE (Reuters) – The sorry state of men’s sport in Singapore was thrown into sharp focus when organisers failed to honour a Sportsman of the Year for the first time since the nation’s annual awards began more than 40 years ago. ‘Unfortunately, it was a bad year; none of them really achieved anything. . .’ The controversy continued when the panel also failed to name a Coach of the Year. . .” Perhaps they should just concentrate on “Math Whiz of the Year.”
LITITZ, Pa. – A Pennsylvania high school ordered more than 450 shot glasses for its prom, a move the assistant principal now says sent the wrong message. The girls who attended last year’s prom got a picture frame; the boys, a money clip. Assistant Principal Scott Galen says: “Unfortunately, this year the junior class didn’t have quite as much money.” But, apparently, plenty of chutzpah.
Exactly: “SAN FRANCISCO – Prepare to be awed by Odd Day. For the mathematically challenged, Thursday’s date, 5/7/09, is one of only six this century that will feature three consecutive odd numbers. Numbers lovers say the rare occurrence is an excuse to celebrate. Ron Gordon, the Redwood City teacher who enthusiastically promotes these numerical holidays, like Square Root Day on 3/3/09, is offering a prize of $579 to those who celebrate the date with the most zeal or who get the most people involved in an Odd Celebration.” This explains why mathematicians can’t get a date on Saturday night.
Exactly: “DAYTON, Ohio – Police found a man accused of shoplifting because he put his address on a job application before leaving the store. . . . (T)he man wrote his actual address on the job application, and police arrested him there while he was ironing a pair of jeans he was accused of stealing.” Little wonder he was unemployed.
Exactly: “(n)o blame was placed on the Hamas militants Israel says were using the U.N. compounds for cover during the fighting.” Surprise, surprise.
“BEIJING – A rural Chinese county said Tuesday it had backed away from a rule urging its officials to smoke a certain amount of local cigarettes to boost tax income after it was reported in a newspaper. Officials in Gongan county in central Hubei province were encouraged to smoke over 230,000 packs of locally produced cigarettes a year, the Hubei-based Chutian Metropolis Daily reported Sunday. Tobacco sales, the biggest source of government revenue, brought in $61 billion in the first 11 months of 2008, up 18 percent from 2007. . .”
“PORTLAND, Ore. – Authorities arrested seven people involved in a fight that broke out early Sunday during karaoke at a restaurant. Sheriff’s Sgt. David Thompson said the brawl ignited when a man became upset that his wife got slapped on the buttocks while singing a song. Thompson said beer bottles and chairs were thrown during the melee while restaurant security used pepper spray on the fighters and upward of 100 people tried to exit.” Afterward, the wife told her husband: “I told you I couldn’t sing.” (Okay, we made the last part up.)
These rocks are not to be confused with the rocks found inside the heads of most teens who play Nintendo.
“WATERFORD TOWNSHIP, Mich. – Tinker Bell has been reunited with her owners after a 70-mph gust of wind picked up the six-pound Chihuahua and tossed her out of sight. Dorothy and Lavern Utley credit a pet psychic for guiding them on Monday to a wooded area nearly a mile from where 8-month-old Tinker Bell had been last seen.” Imagine the possibilities: “I lost my keys.” “Where did you last put them?” “On my dresser.” “Go check there.” “You must be psychic!”
