If we type ‘parody’ or ‘Spoof’ on YouTube, then we get heaps of videos lined up. They say laughter is the best medicine and surely they are keeping up with it.

Social Media is the fad and Facebook tops the list of Social Networking sites. So how can it be away from the world of comedy?

We bring to you 3 videos wherein facebook satire is used to tickle our funny bones. So go watch it and laugh out loud.

South Park’s episode “you have 0 friends” is a direct hit on Facebook and they are candid. It is the definitely the ultimate satire on Social Media. The crass series adds a pinch of perspicacity as they talk about building relationships with facebook.

Earlier we viewed a direct satire to facebook, here we look into an indirect form. 30 Rock in its”Secret Santa” episode pulls a gag and take on facebook. Youface is used instead of Facebook but giving us a reason all to chortle. A must watch

How can our most humorous family ‘The Simpsons’ be left aloof when it comes to satires and gags. This one, ” Bart gets a Z” has Facebook, Twitter, Skype and Foursquare. A cool way to learn and laugh. Homer is a must watch in this one.

Hope these episodes made you skip the doctor. So did you like the episodes?
