25 Funny Zoom Backgrounds to Try RN, Because We All Need a Laugh

I’m not being dramatic when I say Zoom is one of the only things bringing me joy right now. These are trying times, and the video conferencing service has basically taken over the world—FaceTime and Skype were both left shook, by the way. Whether they’re throwing online dance parties, having digital happy hours, or just taking work meetings via video chat, the people are leaning in to the Zoom lifestyle—and the number one thing that makes Zoom the most entertaining option for all the above is the option to use funny Zoom backgrounds. After all, with everything going on in the world, we could all use a good laugh right now.

Whether you’re close enough with your work team to upload a truly weird (but hilarious) meme as your Zoom background or just want something funny behind you while you play a virtual drinking game with your friends over the weekend, there are so many ridiculous Zoom backgrounds from which to choose. For fans of The Office, you can go with a judging stare from Stanley (a personal favorite). Or, if you’re more into reality television, you can always make Jessica from Love is Blind on Netflix your go-to background. There is a funny Zoom background for everyone and every sense of humor—Even my roommate, who couldn’t stop laughing at a bottle of hot sauce because she thought it looked huge. (These are weird times.)

Below, you’ll find 25 funny Zoom backgrounds ready to give everyone at work or at your Zoom party a laugh—or at least a little chuckle. From reality television (Y’all remember the note Hannah Ann wrote to Peter on The Bachelor? Yeah, that’s in here.) to some truly iconic Oscars moments, these images are sure to brighten your day. Now go forth and live the virtual life you’ve always imagined.

18. Literally Just a Photo of Yourself
