2025 has officially arrived, and it’s already shaping up to be a year where our resolutions might last as long as the leftovers from New Year’s Eve – barely into the first week! It’s the year when we all promise to hit the gym, only to find our enthusiasm running out faster than the battery on our new smartwatches.

But let’s not forget, this is also the year of the Tiger in the Chinese Zodiac, meaning we should all be roaring into the New Year with fierce determination… or at least, trying to roar through our Netflix marathons. It’s the perfect time for fresh starts, turning over new leaves, and making plans we might (or might not) keep. And speaking of new beginnings, what better way to kickstart the year than with a few chuckles? That’s right, it’s time to dive into the world of New Year puns, where laughter is the only resolution we’re sure to keep!

Now, onto the pun-derful world of New Year humor! It’s like everyone’s on a ‘roll’ with these jokes, except the rolls are probably still in the oven from last year’s resolutions to learn baking. And remember, if someone tells you a bad New Year’s joke, just reply, “I’m sorry, your joke has expired – it’s way past its ‘year-by’ date!” Whether it’s making light of those resolutions we might never keep or joking about the quirks of transitioning to a new year, these puns are sure to keep your spirits as high as the expectations we set on January 1st. So, let’s raise a smile as we raise our glasses, because if laughter is the best medicine, then New Year puns are the cure to all those post-holiday blues!
