Types of Humour: The Test

Remember that thread before the last DA wipe where we were talking about different kinds of humour? Here's a test!

What I got:
[quote]the Comic
(47% dark, 34% spontaneous, 42% vulgar)
your humor style:
VULGAR | COMPLEX | LIGHT


Yours is the most versatile and also the most popular kind of humor. You'll crack a joke about just about anything, but you're not mean-spirited or intimidating, so you can get away with it--even when, for example, you bust on Mexicans.

You appreciate a good dirty joke as much as next person, but, over all, you've got a brainier approach to humor than most. Now just go out there and write up a routine; it's likely you'd be good at it.

I'll do this when I have time. Probably at lunch.

VULGAR | COMPLEX | DARK

You'll crack on anything, and you're often witty, even caustic, about it.

Therefore, your sense of humor is polarizing. You're transgressive, and you've got a seriously sharp 'edge'--maybe too much for some folks. If they get you, people think you're one of the funniest (and smartest) people in the world. If they don't, they think you're an ***. Whatever, right? While some might question your judgement, your comic intellect is unquestionably respected.

the Idiot Savant
(47% dark, 42% spontaneous, 52% vulgar)
your humor style:
VULGAR | SPONTANEOUS | LIGHT


You like things silly, immediate, and, above all, outrageous. Ixne on the subtle word play, more testicles on fire, please. People like you are the most likely to RECEIVE internet forwards--and also the most likely to save them in a special folder entitled 'HOLY ****'.

Because it's so easily appreciated, and often wacky and physical, your sense of humor never ceases to amuse your friends. Most realize that there's a sly intelligence and a knowing wink to your tastes. Your sense of humor could be called 'anti-pretentious'--but paradoxically enough, that indicates you're smarter than most.

Hah, you're brain-damaged.

I figured it'd be a bit more on the darker side of things. Someday my dream of becoming a vampire will come true though, someday...

the Wit
(57% dark, 23% spontaneous, 15% vulgar)
your humor style:
CLEAN | COMPLEX | DARK


You like things edgy, subtle, and smart. I guess that means you're probably an intellectual, but don't take that to mean pretentious. You realize 'dumb' can be witty--after all isn't that the Simpsons' philosophy?--but rudeness for its own sake, 'gross-out' humor and most other things found in a fraternity leave you totally flat.

I guess you just have a more cerebral approach than most. You have the perfect mindset for a joke writer or staff writer.

You scored higher than 76% on darkness
You scored higher than 2% on spontaneity
You scored higher than 4% on vulgarity


Fairly accurate. I tend to make jokes at peoples expenses, and half of the jokes i make go over peoples head. And yes, i have made jokes about physics and math before.

THE DARKNESS WILL CONSUME YOUR HEART

lol@ the fact that I'm the second darkest person so far.

Blacker than black?

Almost to the point of being metal.

Almost.

the Cutting Edge
(71% dark, 42% spontaneous, 21% vulgar)
your humor style:
CLEAN | SPONTANEOUS | DARK


Your humor's mostly innocent and off-the-cuff, but somehow there's something slightly menacing about you. Part of your humor is making people a little uncomfortable, even if the things you say aren't themselves confrontational. You probably have a very dry delivery, or are seriously over-the-top.

Your type is the most likely to appreciate a good insult and/or broken bone and/or very very fat person dancing.

PEOPLE LIKE YOU: David Letterman - John Belushi



My test tracked 3 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

You scored higher than 96% on darkness

You scored higher than 31% on spontaneity

You scored higher than 10% on vulgarity

How...appropriate.

[quote]Your style's goofy, innocent and feel-good. Perfect for parties and for the dads who chaperone them. You can actually get away with corny jokes, and I bet your sense of humor is a guilty pleasure for your friends. People of your type are often the most approachable and popular people in their circle. Your simple & silly good-naturedness is immediately recognizable, and it sets you apart in this sarcastic world.

PEOPLE LIKE YOU: Will Ferrell - Will Smith

So are you shock jock, ham or prankster? I'm guessing ham.

Ham indeed.

*eats you*

the Idiot Savant (42% dark, 46% spontaneous, 42% vulgar)

Not really accurate. I prefer wordplay to flaming nutsacks, honestly. and I hate forwards.

Your sense of humor takes the most thought to appreciate, but it's also the best, in my opinion.

You probably loved the Office. If you don't know what I'm talking about, check it out here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/theoffice/.

SURPRISE.
