Dark Humor

Something british people claim they have as an excuse when they make fun of children dying. Then accuse people of being oversensitive to their joke even though they responded like a child to something miniscule.
American person: it's funny how british people call fries chips!
British person: Oh yeah? At least my kids arent going to die in a school shooting!

American person: Hey that's going far isn't it?
British person: pft look at this oversensitive American! Cant you see we just have dark humor. We're angry for you that's why I'm joking about the death of kids!
American person: all I said was Chip was a funny word for fries.

Humorous interpretation

Also known as HI, humorous interpretation is an event in the interpretation category of speech and debate. Speakers give a 10 minute speech switching characters, voices and spitting everywhere. Most drama happens in this event as judges do not understand how to judge it. Pops and transition noises between characters are essential. You will most likely see the classic haaaaaapt sound. This event is owned by the god of humorous interpretation Don Zolidis, who has written a number of scripts. If one does a Don Zolidis piece, they may have subjected themselves to teasing. Humorous interpretation or Humor is mostly done by lanky white boys and girls in the event is a rarity. These pasty long boys get far because they can get away with many sexual jokes that females can not. Out of all the events, humor is watched frequently.

humor therapy

Easy to learn and remember when laughing. Crosses all barriers. Transcends separation and disconnection. Lifts all good hormones/chemicals.
Being a beginner means being willing to suck at trying something new. I seek discomfort so it’s a win-win. I call that humor therapy when I can crack myself up.

Pharisee Humor

The type of a humor a Pharisee would have used in the New Testament. Not so much humor, as it is mockery.

Actually, it's a lot closer to being a douchebag.
Man: Oh man, I'm really feeling that workout.
Person implementing Pharisee Humor: Thou shalt not work on the sabbath.
Man: Dude, it's Saturday.
Pharisee: Do you dare speak blasphemy in the sight of the Lord?
Man: You're a douche.

borrowed humor

When a person, or people, take a concept from a popular TV show - usually a catchphrase - and try and make it funny in every day life. Effectively borrowing the line to try and create humor.
Guy, who is not Dane Cook, walks into a party and yells "Wait a second?! Who shit on the coats!"

This is an example of borrowed humor. Expectations were not confounded, thence humor did not arise from it.
