Why is the bar for humor so low in our society?

Ha!

ROFLMAO!

Because real humor is deemed too offensive, confrontational, and upsetting to our wimpy, butt-hurt society.

Oh, behave, baby!

Over the years I have found that I have never laughed out loud during any sit com. It just doesn't happen. So when I happen to be watching such a show with friends that are laughing out loud I am perplexed.

I think my friends are simpleton dopes or I just need something a bit more to start laughing. I wish I laughed more because it is supposed to be good for you.

This is very concerning behavior. Please visit your doctor at his or her earliest availability. You most likely have a severe mental illness. Thank you.

Maybe there's something wrong with me, too. The TV shows that are supposed to be hilarious generate nothing but stone faced indifference in me. For example, people go on and on about the Big Bang Theory. I think it is painfully unfunny. This goes for practically all prime time sitcoms.

One can say the same thing about a lot of things. I prefer having a low bar for stuff like that because it makes life sooo much more enjoyable - feeling fairly childlike. I know you can't control being a humor snob - I do feel really sorry for you. It's like people who can only enjoy sex while on coke and having a threesome.

Do you laugh at comedy movies?

I'm gonna give you to the count of 10, to get your ugly, yella, no-good keister off my message board,

1... 2... 10!

Keep the change, ya filthy animal!

You're suggesting we watch videos done by a terrorist and murderer?

I personally find bathroom humor, sexual jokes, and other "guy" humor unfunny. Not offended by it, just not amused by it at all. There's no accounting for taste, I guess.

As for movies, I find people like Will Ferrell to be painfully unfunny. Never even elicits a smile. I do enjoy David Spade's sarcasm. Again, no accounting for taste. Sarcasm - funny. "Dumb" humor - unfunny. That's just me.

Because people like to laugh you old fart.

The best comedians make fun of themselves, or humanity in general.

Jokes that target specific groups of people, or individuals, are for people who don't have the real sense of humor.

Because the bar for intelligence is as low or lower.

How about Tommy Boy? It combines dumb humor (Chris Farley) with sarcastic humor (David Spade). I loved it.
