Joke for the Day. Dark Humour.

   Dark Humour.

Last week we looked at some 'Doctor' jokes and similar to these are jokes i.e jokes which are based on taboo subjects- things people don't normally talk about.

This type of dark humour is also referred to as black humour, gallows humour or sick humour.

Some can be fairly mild, like the examples below, while others can be shocking.

Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them collapses. He doesn't seem to be breathing and his eyes are glazed. The other guy takes out his phone and calls the emergency services. He gasps, 

"My friend is dead! What can I do?" 

The operator says "Calm down. I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead." 

There is a silence, then a gun shot is heard. 

Back on the phone, the guy says "OK, now what?"

The joke above was voted one of the funniest jokes ever!



While examining the the body of Mr. Schwartz, a mortician notices that Schwartz has the largest penis he has ever seen. 

"I'm sorry, Mr. Schwartz," says the mortician, "But I can't send you to be cremated with a tremendously huge penis like this. It has to be saved for posterity." 

The mortician removes the penis, places it in a jar and puts the jar in his briefcase. When he gets home, he decides to show it to his wife. 

"I have something to show you that you won't believe," he says, removing the jar from his briefcase. 

"Oh my God!" she screams, "Schwartz is dead!"
