Homer Simpson's deadpan 'I get jokes' line from The Simpsons, played when a joke finally lands. A dry, sarcastic reaction sound for memes and edits.

This is a short clip of Homer Simpson delivering the line 'I get jokes' in his trademark deadpan drawl. The delivery is flat and self-satisfied, the kind of slow, knowing tone Homer uses when he thinks he is smarter than everyone in the room. It runs just under five seconds and cuts off cleanly, which makes it an ideal sarcastic sting. Creators drop it right after a punchline lands or, funnier still, right after a joke clearly goes over someone's head. The humor comes from the contrast: Homer, famously the last person who would get a clever joke, insisting that he does, and sounding completely serious about it.

The line comes from The Simpsons, spoken by Homer Simpson, whose deadpan sarcasm made it a favorite among fans long before it hit soundboards. Once uploaded as a short clip, it spread through meme edits and reaction videos where creators needed a dry, self-assured one-liner. It works best in moments of fake confidence, when a character or a friend insists they understood a joke nobody believes they got. Years after its first appearance, the four-second clip still circulates widely, proving how a single flat delivery can outlive the episode it came from.

Professionele tip voor gebruik

Place it the beat after a punchline, leaving half a second of silence first so the deadpan lands. Pair it with a slow zoom on a confused face, and never pitch it up or cut it mid-word — the flat delivery is the joke.
