15 of the Greatest ‘Yo Mama’ Jokes in the History of the World
Every culture has dumplings. “Dough stuffed with meat” is a foundational food item able to transcend boundaries and get people to come together. Just like yo mama — who is also so old that she ate the first one.
The point being, the Yo Mama joke is a timeless classic that existed thousands of years before Wilmer Valderrama tried to fully claim it in 2006.

With that in mind, we present the most hysterical Yo Mama jokes for you to cover your mouth and go “Oooh!” at, while hoping your mama ain’t next...
