The Russian humor of the 21st century is quite different from the middle of the 20th. Gone are the bread lines, the Communist party, and one-room dwellings in a communal house. No one is sent to the Gulag for making a joke. Even for jokes about Putin, even when they compare him to a Czar. So the Russian people’s humor adapts. It has become more philosophical on the one hand or moved into the family and business arenas on the other. The jokers can be rich but are mostly poor. They can be of average intelligence but are mostly wise. They may have enemies but rise above the hatred. They are funnier than ever, but now their humor reflects the multinational character of Russian speakers spread all over the world. Some jokes are one-liners, some a bit longer, but none will tax the reader’s attention span.
