Can you give an example?

@Fibonacci1618 the writings of doug adams. the standup of robin williams. for two of many.

the writings of s j perelman and h h munro (saki) for two more. the marx brothers, for three or four more.

@genessa alright, I see you now. Do you like Greg Geraldo?

@Fibonacci1618 i don't know who he is.

I don't know Doug Stanhope. But I will shortly and get back to you.

Sounds pretty particular. Is there a particular comic or writer, or program you favor?

@Fibonacci1618 Well I follow certain people who are like so, like Candice Pool or some others. I really find this particular sense of humor with certain characters in movies one example is Blue Valentine. It's hard to find this mix. But I'll think about more and I'll hit you up with more. I have whole list in my mind I just need to remember the names and titles. Lolita, as contriversal at it is, she was very witty and sarcastic.

@sarahchan cool, lmk

I do think most swearing takes away from the wit of the joke but I do like a good, placed swear word to exemplify the issue or point. Mostly in satirical comedy.

Some of the greats, for sure!

I think that lands under slapstick

@Fibonacci1618 Noooo......

@Fibonacci1618 Monty Python too?

@Carin I think Monty Python is more Satirical. It's mocking both contemporary society and the freaks. I of course my be wrong.

Agreed. Juvenile humor is an offence to the intelligence.

Dude you're aloud whatever you want. State your preferences like everyone else

When I just, it's usually self deprecated. I don't like speaking negatively of others. But truthfully, I'll laugh if someone else does and it's witty, not harsh

I wanted to get a feel for the spectrum of comedy. There's a few I omitted purposely.

Absolutely love him!

I was lucky enough to see him perform live shortly before his passing.

I think that's what I meant by Negative Sarcasm. But yes, I know that's a popular option. Thanks for sharing.

@Fibonacci1618
I don't think dark humor is necessarily sarcastic, and when I hear negative sarcasm I think more of people putting you down sarcasticly. I guess you meant more cynicism?

An example of what I think of as dark humor is that dark humor is like kids with brain cancer, it never gets old

another good example would be the stand up comedian John Steinberg. Check him out on YouTube if you like dark humor

@PolyComrade lol gotcha
