If you just got a funny text, you might be cracking up, looking for a comeback, or simply a little confused about how to respond. There are so many different ways to reply to a funny text, and what you choose really depends on how you feel about the message. If you're trying to figure out a good reply, this article is here to help. Read on for a complete list of responses to all the different funny texts you might receive.

1. 1

   I can't stop laughing! Everyone loves to hear that they're funny. If you're dying laughing because of a text, go ahead and let that person know. Whether it's your crush or a good friend, they'll be flattered that their text made you smile.

   • "OMG stop. You're hilarious."
   • "I'm speechless. You are so funny!"

2. 2

   LOL. You might have laughed out loud at someone's text, but not have much to say in response. In that case, any variation of "LOL" will do the trick. If the text was super hilarious, try using all caps or adding extra "hahas."

   • "HAHA"
   • "Hahahaha"

   😂, 🤣, or 😹. Emojis are excellent for making a conversation a little more playful. To show this person that their text made you smile, respond with a few emojis. They'll be happy to see that their funny text did the trick.^[1]

   • "LMAO! 😂"
   • "Omg so funny. 🤣"

4. 4

   Cute AND funny! Flirty banter and funny texts are a great way to build chemistry. If you'd like to show this person that you're interested, send them a flirty complement or playfully tease them.^[2]

   • "You're killing me! Have you considered a career in standup? 🤣"
   • "You're like the funniest person I've ever met. Got any other secret talents?"

5. 5

   Send a meme. Memes are a way to appeal to this person's specific sense of humor. If a friend or someone you're crushing on is making you laugh, you probably want to return the favor. To send a funny response of your own, try a meme. It'll save you from having to think of your own witty response, and it'll likely make them smile.^[3]

   • Find hilarious memes on Instagram, Tumblr, Twitter, and other sites online. Look for memes that relate to your friend's unique interests and sense of humor. You might even try something that relates to the joke your friend told.
   • Let's say your friend is joking about your sign in astrology. Send over a funny astrology meme about their sign in return.

6. 6

   Send a GIF. A GIF can convey how you're feeling visually. If a text was truly funny, you might feel like words don't fully express your reaction. Try sending over a funny reaction GIF. It'll likely make your friend crack up in response.

   • Look for GIFS on giphy.com or other sites online.
   • Find GIFS that express your reaction to their joke. If you're cracking up at what your friend said, try a reaction GIF of a TV character laughing hysterically.

   Change the subject. If you want to keep talking but don't know what to say, steer the conversation in a new direction. Fill them in on something interesting going on in your life or ask them a question.

   • "How was your weekend?"
   • "I just watched a movie that I think you would really like!"
   • "What've you been up this week?"

2. 2

   Wait to respond and start a new conversation later on. If someone texted you "haha," you don't have to reply. If you've just had a funny text exchange, someone might respond with "Lol" or "Haha" to show that they're cracking up. It's okay to let this be the end of the conversation.

   • Texting when you don't have anything to say might make your conversation fizzle out. It's best to hold off on replying until you've got something you want to share with them.

   I think you may have the wrong number. A simple text informing them of the mistake is fine. Everyone gets texts from the wrong number sometimes (and they can sometimes be unintentionally hilarious). To clear up any misunderstanding, tell the person that they texted you by mistake.

   • "Woops, I think you meant to send this to someone else."
   • "Wrong number."

2. 2

   Prank the person. It might be an opportunity to make this person's day. Keep your prank light and humorous. You don't know this person, so a more serious or involved prank might upset them.^[4]

   • Text them a picture of your cat (or a cat picture you found on the internet). If they respond, keep sending cat pictures. Then, let them know they've got the wrong number.
   • Tell them that they've got the wrong number, but respond to their message anyway. Try, "I agree, macaroni and cheese sounds great for dinner. BTW, I think you have the wrong number."
   • Respond with song lyrics. For this prank to work best, pick a super popular song, like "Umbrella" by Rihanna or "Call Me Maybe" by Carly Rae Jepsen. If they don't get it after a few texts, inform them that they texted you by mistake.

   I don't like that kind of humor. If this "funny" text offended you, you're welcome to let them know. Perhaps your friend texted you something inappropriate or someone on a dating app made a joke that really didn't land. You're welcome to let them know that you didn't appreciate the message.^[5]

   • "I'm not a fan of that joke. Please don't text me offensive messages like this."
   • "I don't appreciate disrespectful jokes. Please unmatch me."

2. 2

   Refrain from replying if the text made you uncomfortable. If you got a weird text, you don't have to respond. Perhaps you got a text from the wrong number that makes you uneasy or someone on a dating app sent you a strange message. If the text makes you feel unsafe, you don't owe them a response. Simply let the text go unanswered.

   • If the person who sent you a text from the wrong number keeps texting you, consider blocking the number.
   • When someone sends you inappropriate messages on a dating app, you can unmatch them. If they're harassing you or sending you threatening messages, you can also report them.^[6]
