What Kind of Funny?
Huh. I would have expected… I don’t know, something different. More vulgar, I guess. Zero percent? That’s not right. (from Stag and Magic Cookie)

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 you’re 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. Your sense of humor takes the most effort to appreciate, but it’s also the best, in my opinion. Also, you probably loved the Office.

I would have expected more vulgar, too. (For you.)
I wonder if law students are disproportionately Wits, just like we are INTPs (is that right?)

If you think of vulgar as gross-out humor, rather than swear words, the results seem much better. I hate gross-out humor. It just seemed like whenever there was an obviously vulgar answer, there was a better dark one.
Or maybe I like complex, dark humor, but I can’t come up with it myself, so I just cuss instead.
