I find that humour nowadays revolves almost soley around intense, sardonic sarcasm.
If you can beat someone down and make them feel like a ing idiot (even if they don't *really* have it coming), then you "win".
I find a lot of people are trying way too hard to be 3 steps "ahead of the game" in their display of humour - while "one-upping" someone out of the blue can be quite humourous, I find that whole-hearted laughter is being replaced by scornful snickering and disdainful side-glances. As if there exists some circle of humour - a very exclusive one that serves as the great seperator of being "in" (i.e. on the side that is producing or encouraging the mockery) or being "out" (on the receiving end of the mockery).
Many times, the entity in question that is "outside" the realm of this sarcastic humour is nothing but a 3rd person plural pronoun: i.e . "they"
ex. "I can't believe the stuff THEY are coming up with these days."
"Pretty soon THEY'll be demanding X and Y - what IS this world coming to?"

Well, with that, you're getting into why most people seek external social validation. DUMMY! |
