“Chortle is my favorite inbox stuffer.”
- Current subscriber
I started Chortle because I wanted one place on the internet that’s just there to be funny—not trying to fix anything, not trying to be important, just trying to make you laugh for five minutes.
But creating a place like that, like everything else in life, costs money. Most of our posts are free to read, but they all take time and energy to write. We also pay every single person who contributes, because I believe writers deserve to get paid.
The best reason to become a paid subscriber is simple: you want a few more laughs each week, and you’re willing to chip in to make that happen.
“Expands my mind and provides some relief from the serious issues.”
