Henny Youngman is antiquated and pretty offensive. The punchlines remain the same it’s just a question of who they are pointed at.
Also there are 100 year old jokes that are not offensive and still funny.
There is room for both. Without gallows humour we would do nothing but cry at the various tragedies life throws at us.
I can barely navigate my own inbox.
Ah, the aristocrats!!
Totally.
I’m not a fan of Sarah Silverman but her aristocrats joke is arguably the best one in the whole movie. Lots of good ones though.
And I’ve been forcing Mrs Foreigner to watch old Phyllis Diller standup and it’s brutal and hilarious if you can look at it in a historical context.
Lots of these jokes would never fly today.
It’s a trick! It’s a cake!
I thought it was ramen
I was born in 1950 and remember watching her, Henny, Don Rickles (talk about offensive!), Buddy Hackett (one of my favorites), and so many more “live” on tv. OMFG, often pee in my pants funny even today, but I grew up watching them, and the “funny” today is more from sentimentality than the humor. It was a different time. For me, generally not as positive a time as now, but it was the social mileau I grew up in and to deny that would be foolish. Thankfully, I don’t believe my kids or grand kids would find that kind of humor humorous.
As I re-read this post, it’s very weird to hear myself say that. Being this old is a strange thing, and I’m confident the older I get the weirder it’s going to be.
It has been a long strange trip.
I’m about 30 years younger than you and all this stuff is before my time but it’s liberating to float free of current societal norms. There’s a contemporary comedian who I think is pretty funny and I saw him do a Youngman bit word for word. If you read the subtext of the joke it’s pretty bad yet still satisfying.
Is it still funny? Maybe, it depends who you are.
There’s one joke a friend of mine made at another friends expense and it hurt his feelings. Had he pointed the same joke at me I would have died laughing. Condescending and rude for sure but hilarious.
Totally
That part sucks.
Agreed, it’s all about the perspective of the receiver.
I’m cool with that but only if those jokes are funny!
Yes you can rip on me all day as long as you’re clever. I promise it won’t hurt my feelings. But these things are reciprocal and if you take a shot at me I’m going to take a shot at you.
Bring it on but wear some armour 
I probably already spent hours laughing at the stuff you write 
I’m glad to hear it. My work here is done
Don’t forget to tip your waitress.
Get a job that pays better.
I don’t know man, as long as I am sitting here she refilled my mug only 3 times. I expect 6 times of refilling!
Yes there’s some good material in there for sure.
I believe the line is “learn to fucking type”
HA! When I was a music trader, my tag line was “Become a fucking uploader!”
Joking about a man’s murder is never funny.
And it’s not appropriate for OG.
