Being a vegan for 20 years, you hear a lot of the same jokes. People think they're funny when they're generally not. They're quite satisfied with themselves when they can land a joke about vegans as if it was the first time the joke was ever told.
It's embarrassing, but once in a while they'll surprise you with a joke that's actually funny. You have to give credit where credit is due.
Now some people think that since vegans follow a strictly plant-based diet that they don't have enough protein to understand a joke.
They think that since we are morally and philosophically opposed to the mistreatment of animals that we are devoid of the ability to laugh. We are humorless malcontents just waiting our chance to lecture everybody about veganism, right?
Some people think we are arrogant and pretentious, and that we think we're better than everyone else just because our vegan diets are so healthy. While it is true that we are better than everyone else, that doesn't mean we're above good humor!
Alas, jokes made against vegans are not harm against animals, so we have no beef about it. Pun intended.
To demonstrate that we come in peace with our non-vegan friends and family, here are some well constructed vegan jokes that will cultivate a much needed sense of levity in the world around us!

The vegan cyclist joke is my all-time favorite. Most people are irritated by vegans when they have to deal with them one-on-one at a dinner or a work event where food is being served, but there's a lot more tolerance now than there used to be.
As for cyclists, nothing has changed. There's still a no-holds barred hatred for people who cycle.
So if you're a vegan who doesn't cycle and you want to be more obnoxious than you already are, think about maxing that credit card out on one of those really expensive bikes that cost more than most people's cars.
Then you can just ride to work brimming with arrogance knowing everyone has reached peak hatred against you.
