I've seen a lot of content on TikTok about "dark humor" recently, so I wanted to discuss the recent events and my overall thoughts on the subject. Enjoy!

Leave a comment & let me know what you think! I am in no way the judge of what you can and can't joke about, I just shared some of my personal opinions so if you disagree that's all good lol

    I originally made the one sketch about Buzz assuming that he’s never done stand up before but upon doing further research, I found an old set of his from like 8 years ago that had some jokes that were actually kinda funny. Idk what happened in the past 8 years lol but yeah just thought I’d clear it up!

    The whole “he’s not even saying anything” argument is literally the same thing as like “I’m not even touching you” when you’d purposefully try to piss off your siblings by putting your finger close but not touching them 😂

    "facial expressions have no meaning or message" actors: 👁👄👁
  • @reyisdumb.
    the worst part of this is is that it's so easy to make a joke that isn't offensive. here's one: a snake walks into a bar, and the bartender says, "how the fuck did you do that?"
  • @hollow9552
    It’s funny when they call us snowflakes but then see two people of the same gender holding hands and start freaking out
  • @vinx3078
    Translation: Romeo: dude it's not that bad Mercutio: yo I'm fucking dying
  • stg there’s so many racist white guys at my high school that go “i have a dark sense of humor” and then they just say the n word
  • Schrodinger's douchebag- Someone who is a jerk and decides whether they were joking or not based on how people reacted. This is the perfect definition for these type of people.

    as a member of the lgbt community, i did indeed have to come out as a sussy imposter to my family and friends
  • @Peach__soju__
    “It’s not dark humor, you’re just an asshole” would be great on a kurtis town shirt
  • @starfish0607
    People who call other people snowflakes are the actual snowflakes
  • calling gay things "sus" is just a way for people to be homophobic without directly being homophobic
  • @nothankyewpls
    Being called a snowflake because I want basic human respect :)
  • The thing about dark humor is that it isn’t there to legitimately hurt someone’s feelings. It’s supposed to make light of a bad situation. This shit just isn’t funny in any way possible.
  • @paris9316
    “Omg I have such a dark sense of humour” *is openly racist*
  • @wen_and_only
    I had this video disliked bc I watched it when I was in self hate and very trans and homophobic. Now, I’m openly gay and trans and I am cringing at old shit I used to dislike. Sorry to anyone I hurt in my phase, I hope this comment helps ppl understand that many phobes can change for the better and that things are slowly improving.
  • My favorite thing to do whenever someone tells me a “dark” joke is to act confused and be like “I don’t get that joke, can you explain it to me?”
  • @drakhos5820
    The skidmarks: “Y’all are snowflakes ❄️” Also skidmarks: “THIS IS WHY I HAVE NO RESPECT OVER LGBTQ+ COMMUNITY BC THEY BANNED A GUY ON TIKTOK.”
  • @scarb5256
    Dark humor is Cards Against Humanity. Dark humor is not saying offensive shit and then “just kidding!”
  • @__m-a-x__
    “Dark humor” and “no filter” are honestly just excuses for someone with no manners and no tact to be as rude and annoying as they want. Can we un-normalize that? Can we weirdize it?
