It's not breaking news that the citizens of the Internet love some humor. But the things that end up being the most humorous aren't necessarily tied to any one product or brand.

A note on "viral" content -- Let's get something straight: viral is a result of other factors, not a planned endeavor. Or, at least, it shouldn't be. Getting something to go viral is like trying to bathe a cat in ice water. It might happen, but it isn't likely. So why plan for virality? Well, you shouldn't, actually. Instead, do something that you can control - make it funny, or, at the VERY least, entertaining. Here are some examples.
