I entered "the world's funniest joke" (according to CNN http://archives.cnn.com/2002/TECH/science/10/03/joke.funniest/index.html) but it received a funny percentage of 0.0000%.

<<Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them collapses. He doesn't seem to be breathing and his eyes are glazed. The other guy takes out his phone and calls the emergency services.

He gasps: "My friend is dead! What can I do?" The operator says: "Calm down, I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead." There is a silence, then a gunshot is heard. Back on the phone, the guy says: "OK, now what?">>

Bleh, got bored tried this:

"orly? mhm yes rly lmao haha."

It seems all u need to do to get a rather high score is include a question and a punchline with a trailing period.

This particular string was formulated from trendy "words" which concurrently gave it the score of 100.0000% and a popularity of 2.841.

Hehe, I think its based on that sort of system. <_<
