What is Dark Humor about ?

Hey to whoever is reading this,

So I have a few questions if anyone would like to reply answer. What is dark humor about ? Is it about your own trauma or other people’s? If we get a definitive answer to those two questions, can we please include them in the wiki page ? MerlinLionHeart (talk) 04:25, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

To the second question, the answer would be "either." YouCanDoBetter (talk) 11:42, 3 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Uses

According to The Audiopedia on YouTube "Black Comedy is used to mock a victim. This trivializes the victim's suffering and leads to sympathizing with the victimizer." 216.211.247.174 (talk) 04:12, 8 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That's not a reliable source EvergreenFir (talk) 04:43, 8 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

One absurdly generalized interpretation of the concept of black comedy from a video blogger is not anywhere close to being reliable. YouCanDoBetter (talk) 04:53, 8 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Withnail?

Does the 1987 film Withnail and I count as black comedy? Manytexts (talk) 01:11, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
