Have you noticed nobody under 30 understands jokes anymore? Like if a joke happens in a tv show, they take it 100% seriously, they don't even recognize it was a joke, they think it was a serious statement. They don't get jokes irl either. I know why, it's because social media has made jokes an irrelevant form of entertainment for so long now that nobody even knows what they are anymore. What they find funny is brainrot and unintentionally cringe behavior etc with no punchline or IQ needed to figure out "the twist" of the joke or whatever.

From experience, 99% of the time when people take your joke as not-a-joke (ie seriously), it means they intend to use whatever you just said against you.

Is that what happened? I was wondering what happened to humor. Very little in media is funny/witty anymore.

What kids call "funny" is dumb America's Funniest Home Videos shit, like a dog biting a guy in the balls.

Does anyone under 30 watch stand up comedy? I'm so old I remember buying comedy albums. Everyone I knew had Chris Rock's Bigger and Blacker and Adam Sandler's They're All Gonna Laugh at You. Maybe it was a bygone cultural thing, but we loved listening to stand-up and skits.

Is this the anon who is in his 50s?

Anything earnest is like kryptonite to zoomers, unless the earnestness is part of the joke. Caring is uncool

Graduated highschool or college in 2012?

I dunno bout that anon. I make jokes in conversations in day to day and laugh when I see jokes I like in things. Seems a bit extreme
