The Rule of Funny

The theoretical guideline, “I don’t like X unless it’s funny”.

This term is used situationally, especially in recent times on social media to define how someone can enjoy a piece of content even if it betrays their own beliefs.

Person 2: “I thought you hated AI?”

Person 1: “I do, unless it’s used in a funny way, such is the rule of funny.”
