Dark Humor

Post Reply New Topic

Can't say as I get off on dead baby jokes or any mortal misfortune. But I love dark humor, yeah. Do the Evil Dead movies count? Love 'em.

I know this is going to sound horrible and really mean... but I used to do a fake blog posing as a guy with turettes who was also born without fingers and used a dictation program to write his blog...

I’m kinder and gentler now. Honest.

Yes that's very good.

Also I think that the tarantino stuff is really humorous, though it takes a particular sense of humor and probably doesn't appeal to everybody: Kill Bill, Pulp Fiction, Res. Dogs.

Personally, I worry about having a dark sense of humor.

Laughing at other peoples misfortunes helps me to forget all about my own. Which is why I spend so much time on here.

Laughing became an involuntary reflex when our brains became so complex that a mistake could send us into extreme reactions. The literal meaning of a laugh is "This alarming situation is not dangerous (to me, now.)" It serves to quell hostile reactions to the original stimulus. Sometimes it also reveals truths that are too rude to introduce any other way.

I really don't like dark humor. I'm not always above it, but I have too much empathy for people and other living things that suffered and died horrifically or have been in some great tragedy. I'm lucky I can make a joke about the Titanic, even though that was a long time ago and I no longer have to worry that a survivor will hear it and be offended.

Unlike poor old Fozzie Bear.

I like more than one sense of humor, but dark humor is among my favorites. There are jokes I don't find funny but I have never been offended by a joke, and I have yet to see a topic I personally think should be off-topic.

I heard someone once say that the simpsons is considered dark humor but I'm not sure whether it is or not. Anyway I can definitely say I have a messed up sense of humor at times.

I was talking to a friend about a mutual friend who had died unexpectedly. He was a merry type who deserved a wake, so I made a slightly dark joke about what had happened to him, and lost the living friend too.

Love many groups of jokes.

Scripted jokes out of a book bore me to no end, dark or not. There were several book series out back in the 80s called "Truly Tasteless Jokes," "Gross Jokes," and the like. Most of them were old and pretty stupid and some were plain disgusting.

I don't like "jokes" involving violence, general inhumanity, cruelty to animals and any joke about the supposed stupidity of certain ethnic groups.

My sense of humour is so dark light cannot escape.

My sense of humor is so dark that when I touch my hands turn black.

I also have a very dark sense of humour. I like to watch Jerry Springer, Dr. Phil and other mature talk shows that have people fighting or arguing. I also like war sitcoms, movies and YouTube skits that take place in Nazi Germany. One of my personal favourites is 'Hitler Gets a Cat'. I also like the Cheetos one. I've also chose the German side a lot, before I found out the origin of my last name. Last year, I've decided to start being true to myself again. I feel more young and energetic when I choose the German side and more masculine. It's like sitting beside the Christmas tree on Christmas Eve. I'm not evil by any means.

Yes, I like dark humor in fact, here is an example of such-Colonel Hart: It's lonely being a cannibal. Tough making friends. (Ravenous 1999)
