Default Which is your favourite type of humour
We all have different tastes in music, movies, reality TV characters etc, but our sense of humour is a big part of who we are, so I decided to make a poll.

A mixture of wry, satirical, dark and retro. Based on the examples anyway.

Dislike extrovert [though i love McIntyre] and pub humour.

I like a dry humour like Coronation Street's Blanche.

Are the joke and humour the same?

If it is yes, I also like silly jokes.

A woman was interviewed by a street reporter.
"How do you think of Xmas?"
"I think it is very nice. We should have it every year."


Bush went a bar. A man before him ordered.
"Johnny Walker single."
Bush ordered.
"George W Bush married."

Snide humour. Graham Norton's chat show is hilarious, so is 8 Out of 10 Cats.

Graham > Alan Carr (when Graham isn't presenting things like Joseph)

Jo Brand has a very dry sense of humour. She had a series many years ago called "Through the cakehole". I used to love it. One of my favourite sketches was one she did of an over 60's amateur dramatics group performing "Reservoir Dogs". I have never been able to find it on the internet though.
