When someone makes a joke, this is the sound of the snare drum.

badumCHI

An onomatopoeia, badumchi is the sound of a quick drum riff, two snare beats followed by a cymbal clash, usually played after a joke has been told.

The "CHI" of badumCHI is written in caps to represent the respectively loud cymbal compared to the two beats of the snare preceding it.

Comedian: Diarrhea runs in my family.
