This is a comedic lesson because learning
doesn’t take weekends off (a.k.a. homework, oddly enough this looks like a definition list)
Sophomoric – immature, dumb, or lowest common denominator funny (boobs make me giggle)
Juvenile – poop jokes, raspberries, anything related to butt (haha butt stuff)
Pranks - mean tricks that are videotaped so they are funny (Bart Simpson)
Physical Humor – jokes involving a person falling with comedic timing (SNL – Chris Farley) or a person being hit in one of the funny areas (face, crutch, gut, boobs, butt, occasionally shin and stubbed toes) shines and stubbed toes somehow funny (Dodgeball). Also nakedness (Forgetting Sarah Marshall)
Frat Humor – sexist jokes, sophomoric, juvenile, pranks, physical humor, and drinking humor. Watch the one good frat movie every decade and there it is (Old School or Animal House). Or read all definitions above
Snark - fancy way to say rude (internet trolls)
Cheap laugh - joke about sex, a swear word, or a joke given an amazing setup and a person makes a joke (if you need help with this one, then you are helpless)
Right mood - True trick to being funny get people in the mood to laugh, then make anything sound like a joke and they will laugh (Watch standup that is not funny, but people are laughing)
highbrow – humor that sounds smart, but makes 2 out of 100 laugh (Woody Allen)
Dad jokes – corny jokes (although, corny seems to tame of a word) which generate pity laughs or a person smacking their forehead in disgust (Listen to any father try to tell a joke. Women get a pregnancy glow. Men tell bad jokes.)
