The Chappelle Effect

The act of insisting that content is unfunny and boring has the unintended consequence of making that content even funnier and more interesting. A corollary to the Streisand Effect, which brings attention to content that’s attempted to be censored.

This comedy act demonstrates the Chappelle Effect: as funny as it is, it’s even funnier now that everyone says there’s nothing funny about it.
