Peers
We are a highly motivated comedy group with a strong interest in free software and free culture. We all help each other toward the common goal of causing severe fits of laughter from a wide variety of bad jokes. The Peers Comedy Group provides a list of hilarious comedy projects that all strive for free (as in freedom!) software and comedy. If you would like to learn more about a particular comedy group, feel free to reach out to them directly, but please wash your hands.
