There is a lot of comedy out there that I think firmly belongs to us Aspies. Sometimes it's the ruder jokes, or the crueler jokes, but often it's the... absurd comedy. My favorite example is Sam & Max: Freelance Police. It's the comedy style that gets along with me the best, and the one with which I can most easily relate to other people. My favorite example (I have a tattoo of the middle panel of this comic, that's how much my favorite it is):

This page highlights all I love about comedy: there's the nonsensical nature of it, the language play "One of us should bust in while I head them off", the rapid-fire joke succession, the attention to detail.

I know if someone likes Sam & Max that I like them, even if I don't.

Others on this list include:
Futurama
Red Dwarf
Happily Ever After
etc.

A lot of these have mostly to do with very abnormal people reacting humorously to the normal world (except in Futurama, the world is absolutely insane), so it's pretty obvious why I like it. What else fits into this category?
