Seriously what country's humor is so bad that it's practically globally accepted as just purely unfunny. My vote goes to Germany, I mean yeah gassing 6 gorillion Jews was a pretty funny joke, but then taking in 6 million refugees as a follow up punch line seemed kinda weak.

Honorable mention to British humor for having Ricky Gervais, and Japan for their entire line of Japanese gameshows (except batsu)

This is pretty well said.

American humour is "too obvious" the joke literally has to be explained in the simplest terms, there's no interpretation of it, it's literal which takes away the impact of the point of the joke.

Causing a forced laugh instead of a natural provoking of laughter.

Our shitty comedy is the forced shit.

Apparently the style of humor where you call out the punchline was really popular in the West when Japan was Westernizing, and while it's pretty much died out here it's survived over there.

Depends, a lot of our older comedy is bretty good. Most of the normietrash is BBC funded anyway, in its raw form I can safely say British humour is decent overall.

That's an extremely retarded proposition.

Comedy comes through witty and intelligent remarks, analysis, etc. Basically, to have comedy you need to be intelligent and have good abstract reasoning. That's why niggers aren't funny, and why American humour is universally shit.

So, how is it an r-type trait when you need to be intelligent to do it?

This, us burgers are so shit at humor we need to be told when to laugh. I know so many people that "don't get" British humor because it doesn't come with the "you, laugh here now" cue cards. Probably why the IT crowd was so popular over here.

On a related note, I have a really deadpan sense of humor and my friends all find it hilarious but i need to do some exaggerated hand gestures and tone my voice right so that strangers will know I'm joking. Otherwise they think I'm an asshole/crazy.

None of the leftist normie humor I see makes me laugh ever.

I know enough German to know a lot of their humor comes from word-plays, and that's considered shit-tier in English.

Example:
>Daily reminder, Remain voters have no Cox.

That joke elicits a slight titter from an English-speaker.
That's 10/10 fucking red hot bantz in German.

American sitcom humor is garbage crafted by Jews, though. So it's just as awful.

American stand up comedy is simply awful. Comedy is about offending people but these american comedians get up on stage and tell the most inclusive politcally correct jokes they can think of. They wouldnt dare mention niggers because everyone in the crowd would probably lynch them. Take your best american stand up comedian and compare him to someone like rodney rude. There is no comparison at all, americans are unfunny and will always be shit at stand up comedy because they're nutless.

A swiss safe-making company made a contest. Whoever opens their safe in 15 min with lights turned off, gets the 100k$ inside.
Three teams signed up: German, Russian and Polish.
The germans came with lots of drills and lockpicks, but because of limited time they hurried and broke the lock. So the russian team tried to blow it up. They planted a lot of explosives, and the room almost collapsed at the detonation - but the safe stayed intact.
Lastly, they let the polish team in.
The lights are turned off, and you can hear grunts, huffs and puffs from inside the room. 15 min finally passes, and the room is quiet. The jury opens the door and goes inside. He tries to switch the light on.
*click* *click*.
The room stays dark. From the darkness he hears a voice:
"Kurwa, Janusz, we already have 100k$! What do you need the lightbulb for?"

If you don't know Stefan Raab and Helge Schneider, Otto and Nuhr, then you don't really know what German humour is.

It's actually very wide ranged and with all the Americanization and private television, there's pretty much everything around which you have in the states.

Mainstream German humour, which becomes very successfull and makes millions, like Bully Herbig's stuff, or Fack Juh Göthä, or Till Schweiger's stuff is pure cancer though.

I disagree. The difference between British comedy and American comedy is that American comedy is way too wordy. They over explain everything rather than let directing, acting or visual comedy work. It's literally all talk.

English is funniest probably in terms of TV and film etc. America is worst I'd say. So dumbed down. So many terrible terrible sitcoms. American producers do not understand subtlety. I think ireland has some pretty funny shit but the population is so small, there's like ten times the amount of good English humour. Australians are also pretty fucking hilarious. Obviously all nations produce a huge amount of dreadful stuff but in terms of the best stuff I think that's roughly how it is. America should stick to dramas cause they are what America does best. Fargo, breaking bad, that sort of shit is great.

You don't know a lot of German humor then.

Germany as a language is very precise and immediately clear to the speaker.

So it is very hard in German to use a deliberate misunderstanding as a joke.

But jokes are always based on some form of surprise. What we use as a surprise factor is often sonething outrageous or shocking.
A lot like dead pan humour.

Example:
A few decades ago a comedian made his post-war crowd shout german party phrases like "Zickezacke, zickezacke, Flitzekacke".
After his audience was nicely playing along he banged his heels together, lifted his right arm and screamed "Heil". His audience immediately answered with a loud, clear Hitler.
The funny part here is not the nazi salute but the immediate, unthinking reaction of the audience.

If you want to experience good german humor, look for "Volker Pispers". Some of his routines have been translated into English.

The most I ever got out of British humor was a couple chuckles and a few tee hees.
It's as if they're trying harder to impress you than making you laugh. I'm But it's also highly consistent.
American humor is either total shit or total "shit-my-pants laughing" they don't seem at all concerned with impressing you. Sitcoms are also 99% garbage though.
Japanese humor is just completely retarded scale. Most of the time I'm just shaking my head in disgust and wonderment. But then once in a while.... I'll die laughing.
German humor is so bad. It's like grandma at Christmas bad. "Now I'm going to tell you a joke! Here it is! That was the joke, and here is your permission to laugh at my joke!"
Then again, these are just my opinions, I mean just look at my flag...

It goes under the radar because not many real Americans will tune in to a variety show featuring a puppet with headphones slapping a whore's ass to even realize that Mexicans find it funny.

It's literal fucking peasant shit. Like a guy falls down and then a big titty bitch dumps a bucket of water on his face.

Mexico comedy is so shit tier I don't think non Mexicans even realize it exists as a thing at all. I don't think people have ever considered that Mexicans can find a thing funny. Think about it!

Making it seem like beloved soap opera characters are rape-dungeon building, immigrant-hating homophobic serial killers is actually comic genius. Too bad it's too hardcore for Americans and "triggers" them, the soft cunts.
