    the Cutting Edge

    (76% dark, 42% spontaneous, 26% vulgar)
    your humor style:
    CLEAN | SPONTANEOUS | DARK


    Your humor's mostly innocent and off-the-cuff, but somehow there's something slightly menacing about you. Part of your humor is making people a little uncomfortable, even if the things you say aren't themselves confrontational. You probably have a very dry delivery, or are seriously over-the-top.

    Your type is the most likely to appreciate a good insult and/or broken bone and/or very very fat person dancing.

    PEOPLE LIKE YOU: David Letterman - John Belushi

    Not a bad description, although I feel that I should have scored more on the vulgar... Mind you ... John Belushi. :D :1eye:

    Idiot savant as well, though while the second part is about right, the first is pretty far off. I blame this on my middling numbers:

    the Prankster
    (42% dark, 23% spontaneous, 26% vulgar)
    your humor style:
    CLEAN | COMPLEX | LIGHT


    Your humor has an intellectual, even conceptual slant to it. You're not pretentious, but you're not into what some would call 'low humor' either. You'll laugh at a good dirty joke, but you definitely prefer something clever to something moist.

    You probably like well-thought-out pranks and/or spoofs and it's highly likely you've tried one of these things yourself. In a lot of ways, yours is the most entertaining type of humor because it's smart without being mean-spirited.

    the Wit
    (71% dark, 38% spontaneous, 26% vulgar)
    your humor style:
    CLEAN | COMPLEX | DARK


    You like things edgy, subtle, and smart. I guess that means you're probably an intellectual, but don't take that to mean pretentious. You realize 'dumb' can be witty--after all isn't that the Simpsons' philosophy?--but rudeness for its own sake, 'gross-out' humor and most other things found in a fraternity leave you totally flat.

    I guess you just have a more cerebral approach than most. You have the perfect mindset for a joke writer or staff writer.

    Your sense of humor takes the most thought to appreciate, but it's also the best, in my opinion.

    You probably loved the Office. If you don't know what I'm talking about, check it out here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/theoffice/.

    the Idiot Savant
    (47% dark, 53% spontaneous, 68% vulgar)
    your humor style:
    VULGAR | SPONTANEOUS | LIGHT


    You like things silly, immediate, and, above all, outrageous. Ixne on the subtle word play, more testicles on fire, please. People like you are the most likely to RECEIVE internet forwards--and also the most likely to save them in a special folder entitled 'HOLY ****'.

    Because it's so easily appreciated, and often wacky and physical, your sense of humor never ceases to amuse your friends. Most realize that there's a sly intelligence and a knowing wink to your tastes. Your sense of humor could be called 'anti-pretentious'--but paradoxically enough, that indicates you're smarter than most.

    PEOPLE LIKE YOU: Johnny Knoxville - Jimmy Kimmel

    tbh I find it offensive to be considered like Jimmy Kimmel =/ Several of the choices were just the best available not really what I thought too

    I came off as the prankster too.

    What I found interesting is at the bottom I scored higher than 99% of respondents towards dark, spontaneous and vulgar.

    [​IMG] I'm "The Wit" as well. Correct on the dark side, clean humour mostly though I am infamous among my friends >_> and the complex/spontaneous axis seems a little off, I appreciate a well constructed and witty remark, but when they are off the bat it is the best.

    (52% dark, 50% spontaneous, 52% vulgar)

    Pretty balanced actually.

    I laughed out loud at the drunk guy and the cartoon. Freaking hilarious. The drunk guy brought me back to my college days. In my dorm, if one of the guys passed out drunk and didn't lock the door (or did it in public) we would write all over his face with indelible marker. Immature, yes. Hilarious, yes.

    I wonder if people who score near the middle on these things might actually be theri opposite on each one - short tests do that sometime.

    Ah, Nakia, I figured some part of this was your fault.

    your humor style:
    CLEAN | SPONTANEOUS | LIGHT


    Your style's goofy, innocent and feel-good. Perfect for parties and for the dads who chaperone them. You can actually get away with corny jokes, and I bet your sense of humor is a guilty pleasure for your friends. People of your type are often the most approachable and popular people in their circle. Your simple & silly good-naturedness is immediately recognizable, and it sets you apart in this sarcastic world.

    I honestly didn't expect this. I'm not popular

    This is kinda true I guess, though the people I'm closest to say that when I turn my mind to it I make the most biting remarks ever.
