How to keep this or that funny

Read it like a dare. Pause before the second option. "Would you rather hug a porcupine… or kiss a frog?" gets a bigger reaction than the same words read flat.

Make people defend their pick. The question is the setup; the answer is the joke. Ask the person who stood alone on one side why, and give them ten seconds to convince the room.

Move on fast. Funny questions go stale if a round drags. Ten questions is plenty for a group. Use the game above to keep the pace, or let someone new read each question.

Funny, not mean

The jokes here are about situations, never about people. There is nothing about looks, weight, race, religion or anyone in the room. That keeps the questions safe for mixed groups, family gatherings and school, and it means nobody leaves the game feeling like the punchline.

If you write your own, keep the same rule: both sides should be equally silly, and the person answering should be in on the joke. For calmer questions, see the full list of this or that questions; for the office, try the this or that questions for work.

Questions people ask

Are these funny this or that questions kid friendly?

Yes. The food, superpowers, everyday and animal sets are fine for kids. The awkward moments and group chat sets mention crushes and phones, so they suit teens and adults better.

How do I play funny this or that at a party?

Read a question out loud, count to three, and everyone points left or right. Anyone alone on their side has to explain. To keep score, give a point to whoever picks with the majority.

Can I play this with friends over text?

Play a round above, then tap "Send to friends". They open your link, guess your picks, and see their score. It works in any messaging app.

Can I copy the list?

Each set has a Copy button that puts every question on your clipboard, ready for a group chat, a slide or a printout.
