My God… and to think I actually laughed at the simulated death of trained movie dogs that didn’t even deserve to be pretend-killed!
Yeah, what the hell did she do to deserve all the abuse she gets? I don’t watch the show often, so I’m not sure why everyone hates her so much.
I don’t like most bathroom humor, racist jokes (for example the old “me Chinese, me play joke” joke), humor that involves hurting kids or animals, or “cringe” humor. I don’t know if that includes jokes that involve humiliating other people. I guess it’s because I was often the butt of those jokes as a kid. I also hate inside jokes being repeated in front of outsiders without explanation - to this day I have no idea what a Buford is, only that the popular girls in my school called each other that in front of me.
Add me to the list of practical joke haters. I don’t like surprises. I much prefer knowing what to expect. I got the fake lottery ticket a few months ago - from my own daughter! My mom had bought her some, and they looked pretty realistic. I scratched it off and got so excited when I thought I won, that I started to cry when I looked it over and realized it was fake. My daughter and my mom both apologized to me afterward. I wouldn’t have taken it so badly, but I was on disability at the time and really could have used the money, had it been real. :o
Confession time: I love puns like these! 
That’s what *she *said!!! 
This, for me. I have never even cracked a smile at any song parody or supposedly “funny” song. Hate, hate, hate funny music.
Worst thing is my cousin loves parodies and forces me to listen to any hilarious ones he comes across and I usually have to sit through the whole thing and pretend it’s mildly amusing.
Well put. I recently had to revoke the posting privileges of an acquaintance who apparently didn’t understand that posting a tsunami “joke” in the Facebook Event page of the Japan Earthquake/Asia-Pacific Tsunami fundraiser in which I’m performing was a dick move of epic proportions.
“Roofie” jokes, because I end up feeling like a humourless killjoy every time I say ‘that’s not funny’. Then people uncomfortably look at me wondering if I’ve been raped; I look back at them uncomfortably wondering, “is that the only reason you’d think a woman wouldn’t laugh about drugged drinks?”
Oh, and add me to the “vomit” list and we’re good.
That is just so shitty I feel bad for you. The only time those could work is if you could take it or leave it. A very very few practical jokes are funny and they depend on being fairly mild and on bringing the other person into the joke once they find out. 99% of them I don’t like.
I also hate any vomit jokes. I can just about deal with it if the vomit is happening off screen, but if I have to watch it, I look away.
I love song parodies, though, if they are good ones. :o
Me too. I recall once a long time ago when I was about as broke as broke can be, and I found what I thought was a 20 dollar bill on the sidewalk (that would have been about two weeks’ groceries at that time). It turned out to be some jackass’ advertising scheme - I felt broke that morning, and I felt broke and miserable after that. I’ve never forgotten that feeling, and I’d never do that to someone else on purpose.
Did you hear the one about the half jewish half chinese dead baby with a speech impediment that farted after she was locked in her room after her mom humiliated her?
That sucks. Maybe one of the little things (and I do mean ‘little’) I do helps to karmically balance that kind of bullshit: sometimes when I’m out and about, I’ll just randomly drop a dollar bill in a parking lot or on a sidewalk. I know it’s just a buck, but I like to think that whoever finds it will feel lucky all day.
“Sarcasm and puns are the lowest form of humor” - people who suck at sarcasm and puns
I don’t like jokes about
Peanuts
Black lesbians
NOT funny
South Park.
Wait, what was the topic? Oh yeah, it was “What do you never find funny”
OK, I was right…South Park.
I’m still wondering why everybody hates Meg Griffin so much.
If you want to find the thing I laugh at least, I will say 'Samurai Warrior."
Not only is it unfunny to start with, it goes on at Homeric length, making me hate John Belushi’s entire career. Every one of his moments that were funny are marred by the image burned into my brain of his SW.
Also, jocks dressed as women…alright, when I was in first grade, I kind of laughed at it. By the time I hit second grade, it was totally beneath me.
Hmmm…I don’t have anything against cruel jokes, but I hate practical jokes because the entire foundation of a practical joke is to be cruel to the person.
Lawyer jokes don’t seem at all funny to me…don’t know why.
That’s it for now.
Oh, btw, the Jackass airhorn video had me rolling.
Best wishes,

I don’t like any of the talk show host jokes. You can tell these come out of a joke mill in the back room where they are desperate to think of something funny to say about the day’s events and the people involved. Just because it’s timely doesn’t make it funny. Funny jokes are usually vetted from experimentation in a number of venues and made a part of the act because people actually laughed at them instead of laughing on cue.
I like Jay Leno, Conan and Jimmy Fallon’s personalities, I just don’t like their prepared jokes. And Bill Mahr, how can he even classify himself as a comedian? He’s got the lamest jokes of anyone in the history of showbiz. I really don’t know what he is, except for a moron.
Back ten years ago, when the board was young, the : D smiley was a big-smile yellow smiley and I used to use it a lot. Then they changed to the poison-green buck-toothed smiley, and all my old posts were using it instead of the one I had intended.
I’m still bitter.
Nobody hates Meg. They hate her pink beanie. And what it sits on.
I like to think of him as an angry, arrogant, condescending, crappy political analyst/hack pretending to be a crappy comedian. That way if someone attacks him on his humor, its about the politics. If someone says his politics are all retarded, its about the humor. A win win (except for everyone else).
I didn’t want to single anyone out because I don’t think it’s intentionally meant to be offensive, but yes, I find it very offensive. If my husband referred to me as SWMBO I would be extremely offended. We tease each other about a lot of things, but one of those things is not what a burden relationships are. It used to piss me off so much when his friends would tease him about being pussy-whipped, because I really could have cared less if he wanted to go out with his friends. He just wasn’t into what they were doing. Not my fault. Stop blaming me.
I’m not even singling out guys here, either. A very well-educated, intelligent, successful friend of mine recently posted an article written by a woman who was essentially saying, ‘‘People are telling me I should remarry, but what’s so great about marriage anyway? Men have to be fed, and clothed, and pampered. Who needs that?’’
You don’t want to get married again? Fine. But stop assuming your shitty marriage is some kind of Universal Law.
I spoke up to my friend because ‘‘Hey, did it ever occur to you that the person you end up with is a CHOICE YOU MAKE?’’ My friend acknowledged my point but basically said I’m just a part of a lucky minority. I’m not claiming luck had NOTHING to do with it, but maybe, just maybe, I ended up in a good marriage because I made healthy, rational choices and refused to compromise my principles? I didn’t marry a guy who can’t wipe his own ass and holds me responsible for the state of his friendships. Ya think?
I honestly think this is the ONLY kind of humor that I find consistently unfunny.
Everyone hates her for no reason whatsoever. To me it highlights the sheer ridiculousness of dumping on someone for no reason (which happens a lot, actually.) I think it’s pretty funny, in an uncomfortable sort of way.
