  Boomer humour is something else, isn’t it?

    Boomers failed to see that Dangerfield was poking fun at them.

      As a person, I can confirm that it is, indeed, a thing that exists.

  Ok but Dangerfield was actually funny though

    Some of my favorites:

    I came from a real tough neighborhood. Why, every time I shut the window I hurt somebody’s fingers.

    I’m not a hypochondriac, but my gynecologist firmly believes I am.

    My mother, she never breastfed me. She told me she liked me as a friend.

    Nothing goes right. I joined Gamblers Anonymous. They gave me two-to-one I don’t make it.

      The other day my wife greeted me at the door in a sexy negligee; the only problem is, she was just getting home!

  idk what OP means but dangerfield’s thing was generally making jokes about these kinds of jokes, he’s timeless and his acts are still funny today

  So weird how comedy can shift like this. It used to be like an eye roll laugh type thing but now every time I see or hear a joke formatted like this it immediately disgusts me.

    It’s supposed to be self-effacing. Dangerfield’s playing a character you’re supposed to recognize as an obnoxious, abrasive loser.

    It’s like watching Jon Arbuckle fuck up on a date or Al Bundy fail at business. You’re not supposed to be rooting for these guys, you’re supposed to be laughing at them.

    In the same way that Batman shifted from this 70s era Sci-fi Action Comedy to a 00s Grimdark thriller/horror, we’ve lost any sense of humility or self-deprecation. All these people lining up in excitement over a Joker that isn’t funny.

      It’s reassuring to know he’s taking the piss.

      Ah, gotcha! Well that’s me misunderstanding his particular standup routine as I’m relatively unfsmiliar

  Satire, or a real opportunity for anons to bond with their dads over misogynist humor?

  source

  • IronBird@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    all the great timeless comedians do one thing…they’re telling the truth.

    in the case of damgerfield, he’s playing a character. a abrasive, completely un-selfaware rich guy. a joke about hitting his wife is a really a joke about the kind of losers that hit their wives.

    Jokes about our partners isn’t necessarily misogyny, projecting it out to all partners would be.
