Guardian readers: the 10 funniest things (on the internet) this past year – according to you!

1. Mask, Gloves, Soap, Scrubs by Todrick Hall

Todrick Hall’s Covid cover of his own song, Nails, Hair, Hips, Heels comes front of mind. – ChrisR22

Dance now.

2. This song about feelings

This music teacher, coping with online learning by writing a song about her thoughts. – helenholmes

So moving, so relatable!

3. #ConductorCam

Broadway actor Rob McClure’s truly delicious “conductor” series. Warning: number 12 is physically painful for musicians. And yes, it’s “proper” conducting. Start with episode one, below, then see all the rest here. – PeterFyfe

Ladies and Gentleman...I give you the world premier of an ongoing series I’m calling... #conductorcam🎼#quarantinelife #werefinehere pic.twitter.com/7j9f6Mvpkn

4. This cartoon by Nathan W Pyle

OK, it was tweeted in 2019 but it brings the world two new terms: “rollsuck” and “foot fabric”. And for those who were stuck in our homes in lockdown for so long observing the filth, it just seems so appropriate to 2020. –@TomJohnstone

6. This coronavirus version of Torn

This version by Jayesslee …

So I’m kind of scared of being here ...

… which is a cover of this cover by Kathy Mak of Torn by Natalie Imbruglia (which is itself a cover). – SparkyThe Dog

... there’s lots of talking, lots of breathing without protective gear ...

7. Covid dog cough

This I did laugh at so it was good to know that I wasn’t actually dead after all. – Pallster

The dog is smart

8. Christian Hull guessing paint colours

By far the funniest thing I’ve seen all year. – Not_Seebo

Not quite watching paint dry.
