Plus I know that humor like this doesn't work on the internet.

Depends whether you are referring to effect or appearance.

The problem with internet ‘jokes’ is that the typically only people who bite publicly are the ones who did not get it, or do not have a suitable sense of humour. This gives the appearance that such humour does not work.

However the people who appreciated the humour will typically just smile and more on. Since that is generally the main objective of humour I would say that irrespective or whether the humour works or not, it usually appears not to.
