Dark Humor Jokes

Dark humour takes the subjects we agree to avoid — mortality, failure, the quiet dread of an ordinary Tuesday — and treats them as material. It is a coping mechanism with a punchline attached, which is why it is so common among nurses, soldiers and anyone else who cannot afford to flinch at work.

One rule shapes this page: we joke about situations, never about who somebody is. Anything aimed at a group of people is rejected in moderation rather than published. Everything here is written for adults who know what they clicked on — if you want something you can read aloud at a family dinner, start with the dad jokes instead.
