Describe Your Sense of Humor (page 3)

sardonic and pithy is what my best mate tells me.... repeatedly! i like to make commentary on events as they occur.... she begs me to do stand up, but i swear it would kill the muse..... my humour is for my entertainment and if it spills over, all the better

Good call RisingEagle, But I've found that elders wives are more likely to get torqued if you give them the ole "motorboat." Especially after the WT study.

2. dry - humorously sarcastic or mocking; "dry humor"; "an ironic remark often conveys an intended meaning obliquely"; "an ironic novel"; "an ironical smile"; "with a wry Scottish wit"

I find it ironic that you prefer sarcasm to dry humor.

Now that's funny, min!

NWR, you can have dry humor without being sarcastic. I suggest you look up some definitions and recognize what the words and expressions literally mean. Sarcasm is cutting, literally. Dry humor does not necessarily cut. If I had more than 6 posts left, I'd indulge further but I choose not to play Webster any longer for you.

Check out Sarcasm Society .com for their excellent definition of sarcasm.

I am unintentionally funny - sometimes.

Wish I could define the humour I have, but I can't.

I do know that I find alot of things funny, and I laugh alot.

Yeah I'm funny. but I think Im really too stupid to describe it in like categorical terms. It's sometimes black humor, sometimes its black racialy, sometimes, its sarcastic, and sometimes its dirty. Most of the times its so wrong that if your grandma saw it she'd hit you and say a prayer for your dear souls.

It's like slapstick but not really- see I can't describe it. it's that joke thats told at the funeral of that uncle who nobody liked or nobody really knew 'caus he was quiet but you gotta be there 'cause he's dead and family but you know you just wanna get to the awake so can eat some his wife's food 'cause she can cook, so you tell jokes to make time fly trying to make the poor batard next to you laugh so people can think he's a horrible person. You point at who wear what, who's crying for attention and who is glad the bastard is dead in the first place, and the other woman he was sleeping with. And the kid he more than likely molested and is glad he's dead.

Yeah I'm that guy who tells that joke. Annoyingly innappropriate and without me you would feel the day was a complete waste. You will def. wanna ride with me to the cemetary...

"Literal" and "ironic" are nearly polar opposites.

I am most appreciatiove of the help you've offered up to this point, min.

I've learned that though dry means humorously sarcastic, you can have dry humor without being sarcastic.

This is true, but remember, I was going for the fade not the df'ing. It's really hard to 'motorboat' someone later on if they're running from a shunned person across the aisles of Walmart. It's all about babysteps with a fader.

Cynic, sarcastic and way out there. I like to shock people. I like turning everything into a dirty joke. Nothing is sacred.

I have a very sadistic sense of humor.

For example {Shrek 3 spoilers: When the frog king died. I was LOLing all the way from "Someone better be dying" to to the end of the funeral.}

I like irony (Irony is wasted on the stupid.) sarcasm, parodies, and almost anything sacrilegious or blasphemous. I despise slapstick, unless it is done in an ironic way.

For example:

Shoving someone into a pool in the middle of winter = Not funny, that's just mean.

Tricking someone into falling/jumping into the pool on their own = Hilarious. (IE: The MASH episode where they filled a foxhole up with water and yelled 'air raid!')

I tend to get myself in trouble this way....
