A young Hungarian woman, who'd seen all the Monty Python films, developed a passion for British humour until she went to London. Waiting a long time for an underground train one night, she met an Englishman who explained that the delay was probably caused by a crash, "with dozens killed". "It was only when the young man began laughing that I realised the darker side of some British humour." Least liked nationality: German! |

i love germans, i have a tendencie to like what other people dont like, next up: hippies i loved them during the ek when holland played against them, they were singing so cheerfully, not the stupid whistling when the adversary played like other countries do, like holland, but even more portugal |

i once formed a theory, that people near seas are funnier because i thought my brother and sister and me were funnier than my inland cousins and because germans are unfunny. i later learnt it's just a difference in taste for what's funny. like incredibly lame: german humour |

Yes, Germans are not widely renowned for their comedy, are they? I remember reading in that Hidden Dimension book that if you are in Germany, you don't move the furniture, office doors are to be closed sensibly at all times, and you don't look at a German from a distance because it's like coming up to him and poking your finger in his chest. |

I once read an explanation of humour in a book by an Icelandic philosopher. It was interesting. According to him sex jokes were for example funnier in the western world where as jokes about food were funnier in India. He said the reason for the sex jokes being funnier in the western world was that western people didn't have as much as the Indians but the Indians how ever didn't have as much food as the Western people. So in India it would be funny to say "eat air" but westerners wouldn't find that very funny. I bet this sounds stupid but i just can't remember the whole thing. But it was a great book though. |

Germans are often unintentionally funny especially when they say german dirty words |

well, i was in germany for a week 3 years ago and i really didn't like their humour. the thing that was funny though was how they found things that were NOT funny hilarious. |

well, british humour is excellent and i like our humour too. british humour is also good because it's understood by so many. sure, serbian humour might be good too but you haven't got that many that understand it. it's the same thing with the icelandic humour. |
