All kinds of "funny"
How would you describe your sense of humor? What kind of humor do you find "funny"?
There's dry humor, slapstick, one liners, parodies, impersonations, stand up, etc....what did I leave out here?
What about "sarcastic humor"...I think sarcasm sometimes is mistaken for humor, I don't think of it as humor, it is defined by the dictionary as ...
1 : a sharp and often satirical or ironic utterance designed to cut or give pain
2 a : a mode of satirical wit depending for its effect on bitter, caustic, and often ironic language that is usually directed against an individual b : the use or language of sarcasm
I've never considered "sarcasm" as a type of humor..Do you?
I do love the "dry" style of funny, like in allot of British comedies, and I'm helpless not to laugh at slapstick, always have been always will be a fan of the classics, like the 3 stooges, Laurel and Hardy, Keaton and Chaplin.

Re: All kinds of "funny"
I find, "thought" humor to be the funniest. Usually it's very dry humor. The kind that makes you think, "What the hell?" then you get it, or you go the whole day through before finally it hits you. Usually when that happens, I look like a total weirdo, laughing out loud and nobody around me or even smiling... Oh, and sarcasm is a lost art. There aren't many folks around that can use sarcasm the right way. Its always been a way of a come back to an offending joke, where everyone but the intended victim gets the punch-line. For example, "It's everywhere you want to be."...
