You nailed it!
It's uncomfortable comedy. I think jews have cornered the marked on uncomfortable comedy.
The only solace I take from jew comedy is the fact that regular people would smash Curly Howard in the head with a hammer as a form of greeting.
But discomfort is not comedy. Comedy makes you laugh because it's intrinsically funny to you.
Laughter from discomfort is a psychological coping mechanism to avoid the psychological discomfort (cognitive dissonance). Which means the laughter originates because it is not funny. It is uncomfortable and causing pain. This is literally inversion of humor (pain vs pleasure).
I'd argue this type of humor is actually psychological warfare intended to condition people into accepting discomfort and psychological injury, contrary to accepted social standards and rules.
Which I really couldn't put a finger on until I read this thread. Makes perfect sense now.
Thank you.
Still... how could you not get a chuckle out of a jew in a dhoti?
Honesty I find it disturbing. To me it's basically a diaper.
