Badly timed punchlines...

Badly timed punchlines...

That has just made me heartily guffaw, are you British?

If not, you've cracked the problem with some people not 'getting' our 'awful' humour.

I can only describe it as 'say the worst possible thing, with a smile'. I mean, how bad can it get.

Where do you find pregnancy books in a library ?

In the “C” section .

Naw not brit, I'm just an awful person, so I get it naturally...

Monty Python was a revelation to me, it broadened my understanding of humor manifold.

Humor isn't laughing about the stuff you think is funny, it's being able to laugh even if it stings.

Humans find "your mother" jokes funny because they are a form of insult humor. Insult humor is when someone makes a joke that pokes fun at another person or group, often in an exaggerated way.

The use of the phrase "your mother" as part of the punchline creates a sense of shock and surprise for the listener, which can be humorous. Additionally, these types of jokes may also rely on cultural references or stereotypes about mothers, which can elicit laughter from those who recognize them.

Can i recommend a TV Show called The Day Today. Just as surreal Monty Python but more modern. Armando Iannucci and Chris Morris have that 'bad taste humour' about them. To the point the follow up series Brass Eye ended up getting banned.

They have also had a hand in the movies 'Four Lions' and 'Death of Stalin', both highly recommended.

You sound like Wikipedia

I found this one, an especially spicy one, it's insults are layered like an onion...

a reply to: MCurns

Thanks, I'll watch them, ATS film recommendations are rarely a let down...

We really have to thank Dal for the groundwork, it would be only half as funny.
like that it even works as one joke.
I hope D. wasn't trying to be sensible, as that would make my part rather insensible.
But this is the joke forum so kind-of not sorry, but thankful we got a laugh on someone's face.
I mean that punchline was perfectly timed, thank you D.

I wrote another response ment to be funny and upon posting and reading Dals post again, I had this answer pop into my head and busted out laughing, hence the edit...

I often laugh aubout my own jokes...

Almost. I am honing my social interaction LLM, I knew someone would point out this is not how I construct my sentences .

I found your question a valid question and so I asked my social interaction assistant what it is about mother jokes. And it answered in that framework so I used the information and sentence structures as well as vocabulary to formulate my own response. It wasn't copy and past is what I want to say.

I wasn't trying to insult you, although I think you poke fun at me for not posting a joke but dry and down to the point explanation :-P

The little tibit "humans can" was an odd thing to read... Who else anyway? AI?

First i wanted to say arw you a bot, but didn't want to insult you.

that being the go to insult around here, and there being some tension already, I thought let's be diplomatic

Have you seen Mad Heidi?

I'm the 'neutral'izer...

I asked the stupid question and always ask for non conflated answers, so I'd better suck them up... There is a certain humor to such a dry answer too.

a reply to: TDDAgain

Does he understand jokes?

What's especially funny and share worthy about this one?

Lilly Singh ... but then again, at least to me, Andy Kaufman sucks too.

While this "humans can" came from the LLM, if you see me using it elsewhere in threads as if I wasn't one, then that's an insider joke I make from time to time to spook people who's job is to scower the internet.

Just fur funsies, next time you are in public wlan, google stuff like "Things that make humans comfortable", "Food humans like". Just for the small chance someone at NSA or wherever, either get's a small heart attack or a chuckle. I know I am strange humored....

Although with comedians, you've always got to wonder: is it so bad, it's actually good?

Politicians are funnier, because you know, they didn't actually want this to be funny.

a reply to: halfoldman

The sad part about politicians is most don't see the jokes they applaud, but once you got that punchline they are indeed hilarious...

Oh go on - not inappropriate?

Why, we do it in sports all the time, hence to prove it I'm going to snog the entire Spanish rugby team.

Before the astounded planet!

Impressive, point taken bro.
