Your sense of humour

    How would you describe your sense of humour? What type of comedy or humor do you enjoy, or what makes you laugh?

    I myself have a rather dark sense of humour. One that I would describe as been in the realm of Frankie Boyle or Jimmy Carr, or South Park type of humour. As bad as it might sound, and i'm pretty sure if there is a hell i'm going to it. I generally see things from a funny side even if they are serious, although I also have respect for the issues at the same time. But when it comes down to it, I do have a dark sense of humour.

    I also like sarcastic humour as well, with satire and parody being my favorite types of comedy derived from that humour. I also have a fondness for the type of humour that The Simpsons used, which is supposed to be social satire and surreal comedy, but there might be more to it.

    Anyway that's what my sense of humour is like.

    I love the letter U in my humour.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 32,688 ✭✭✭✭ytpe2r5bxkn0c1


    I prefer humour with a U in it. Much funnier than the american style.

    I don't have a sense of humor, I laugh when everybody else laughs. It's easier with one person, if there's more I go with the majority and laugh if 80% of the people around me are laughing.

    If someone says I've said something funny I make a mental note and use it in other conversations, doesn't always work but so far nobody's noticed I'm a serial killer.

    It's not that midgets are funny... Ah who am I kidding, they're hillarious little fcuked.

    I'd say I was less than 10 seconds in before Ya ;)

    I crack up at the stupidest little things.
    I especially love seeing people fall over.

    I have a sick sense of humour too though and if I said even half the things on here as I do in real life then I'd be perma-banned a long time ago.

    I'm an accountant so apparently I've no sense of humour.

    Two blondes fell down a hole. One said, "It's dark in here isn't it?" The other replied, "I don't know, I can't see!"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 129 ✭✭NewYork1979


    I love stupid humour, people falling over, Fr. Dougal etc. My daily humour is a bit sarcastic.

    Want to hear a clean joke? The boy took a bath with bubbles. Want to hear a dirty joke? Bubbles was a man.

    Fair enough but what about that joke you promised?

    Never actually promised a joke, was just humoring the poster.

    But I changed the above joke though. Although I will admit I'm not really funny myself. Though that wasn't the point of the thread.

    It's about a 9 out of 10.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,404 ✭✭✭Mister Vain


    Mine would be fairly dark, kind of like Dave McSavage. I love his stuff.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,767 ✭✭✭SterlingArcher


    Rape jokes.

    Dry, like my skin.

    (I have psoriasis)

    How do you get a pikatchu onto a bus?

    Pokemon. Ah, the old ones, they're the best, eh? I have the sense of humour of a 12 year old. The little git wants it back, but he can feck off.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,106 ✭✭✭catallus


    Pokemon. Ah, the old ones, they're the best, eh?...

    There is a deep genius to it, I think. Simple, yet profound.

    Yes, that is precisely how you would get a pikachu onto a bus but also the word pokemon is associated with pikachus. So it has a double meaning.

    FFS you can't say midgets. It's dwarves, dwarves are hilarious...

    Suddenly thought of this.

    I do that too but I don't actually like it. If one bad thing happens to someone, I'm all sympathy, but once several bad things happen in a row it starts seeming a bit surreal and ridiculous and I can't stop myself.

    Apart from that, I dunno. I amuse myself anyways, that's the most important thing.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 477 ✭✭The Strawman Argument


    In terms of actually getting me to laugh, it's mostly gallows humour or silly stuff.

    Requiem for a Dream ticked both boxes, hilarious! :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,730 ✭✭✭Sheep Lover


    Controversial and sick.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,299 ✭✭✭✭The Backwards Man


    Don't really have one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,465 ✭✭✭supersean1999

    Ohhh im very sick i molested a handicap.
    . Was a lot funnier when we were at work taking them off. With our best impressions. True story by the way. So that sums my humour up. Gets jacket closes door. Bye

    Dara O Briain, flying by the seat of your pants style humour plus a mix of Dylan Moran cynicism.

    But seriously I think O Briain made me an extrovert, if you want to learn how tell stories about anything, watch him.
