How 'normal' is your sense of humour?

I love anti-jokes too.:D

What did Goldilocks say to the three bears?

She asked them how bears make porridge without opposable thumbs.

Dry
Black (but not shock jokes for the sake of shock that's just ****, there has to be humanity in them)
Subtle/understated (ie the opposite of the comedian who bludgeons you with their jokes and the crowd who laughs because it's "a joke")
Deadpan (the best sort of humour tbh)
Ironic
Surreal
Jokes that have intelligence/craft in them.
Anything parodic/iconoclastic

This is a good example.
Surreal, deadpan, parodic, intelligent.

Where is Standard Toaster, I would like to listen to his/her/it's opinion> Guaranteed to make me laugh!

Perfectly normal ... for a 15 year old male in the throes of puberty.

However, as my friends and colleagues occasionally remind me, I'm a tad past 15.

I'm sure they think they have a point ...

I have a sick, twisted and dark sense of humor.
So dark in fact, not even light can escape it.

Is it true you create your jokes in a hadron collider?

Standard Toaster · 29-06-2010 02:42AM

Surely you mean the Large Hardon Collider?

If you do, then yes. Yes I do.

Nah, you're mixing it up with the hardon collander - that's what you rinse your sprouts in:pac:

I have a pretty dull middle of the road sense of humour......although I always giggle when I f*ck my sister but she always cries.

yeah...why does she always do that actually?

I've a very weird sense of humour. I can laugh at nearly anything.

Stuff like this always gets me.

I used to hate P.E at school. I had a pretty big cock and was embarrassed to take the group shower afterward.

All the other girls just pointed and laughed.

I suspect it's something to do with the tears or lack of them when you chop an onion or a prostitute into little pieces.

And while some of you think that the sick ones laugh at the punchline of that one, the sick ones are the guys who sit in the corner and just nod.

I'd cry either way.

Though it's less appealing to chop an onion.

People falling over or anything that involves people being humiliated in public for all to see.

NothingMan · 29-06-2010 12:27PM

I would say my own sense of humour would be darker and of course anything with a fart in it is pure gold. My gf on the other hand likes really simple jokes and I find myself laughing at her more than the joke.

Eg. What's red and sits in the corner?

A naughty strawberry!

I swear to god even now she'd be laughing for minutes!

Probably shouldn't have started dating a 6 year old I guess.

can be subtle, sarcastic or dark

for instance..mate asked me this morning at brekkie what was the story with the iphone 4 shortages..
I replied "Foxconn are down 11 people so they're not making their numbers"..
cue ppl laughing for a sec until they then copped what I was talking about

Wouldn't that just be a "possible fact" more than anything else.
That crowd do produce the iphone 4, do they?

In the pub, full of drink, great sense of humour.
Following morning though, not so funny.

Laughing at people falling over or farting or belching

Laughing at double entendres or sexual innuendo because they're mostly obvious puns and therefore boring because they're so obvious

My father would crack me up with his farts sometimes, pretending he was pulling a trains whistle or had just trod on a frog, as my mother stood around looking disgusted

Usually depends on the situation and delivery but I'd have a soft spot for the oul' wordplay.

"Gavin and Stacy"

Never seen it.

His stand up shows crack me up.

I love most good stand-up, no particular style. I'm watching loads of JImmy Carr, George Carlin and Ross Noble atm
And day to day, I'd have a fairly black humour. Nothing like a good tragedy to put a smile on your face.

Duggy747 · 01-07-2010 09:45AM

I like my humour all over the place, I usually range around the dark side of humour more though. I grew up on a healthy diet of those old skool spoof movies like Airplane!, Top Secret!, The Naked Gun, Hot Shots, etc as well as programmes like Police Squad!, Sledgehammer, Fawlty Towers, Only Fools & Horses, Porridge, etc.

Love old skool British comedy from the 60's, 70's and 80's. Genius age for comedy with the likes of Tommy Cooper and the 2 Ronnies.

I always find awful jokes more memorable and funnier than the normal ones:

My rottweiler keeps chasing everybody on a bike...

if he keeps it up i'm going to have to take the bike off him

Ba-Dum-Bum..........Peesh!!!

Herb Powell · 01-07-2010 09:55AM

If its the one I know, the answer is you cry when you cut up an onion!

I only laugh at my own jokes.
