My Sense of Humor-This was too self-aggrandizing not to publish
I took the “Humor Test” Jason had posted about on his MySpace site. Here are my results:
The Wit
(52% dark, 19% spontaneous, 10% 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.
Take it yourself HERE.

the Idiot Savant
(47% dark, 53% spontaneous, 57% 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 SHIT’.
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.

I’d say this fits pretty well:
the Comic
(42% dark, 38% spontaneous, 52% vulgar)
your humor style:
VULGAR | COMPLEX | LIGHT
Yours is the most versatile and also the most popular kind of humor. You’ll crack a joke about just about anything, but you’re not mean-spirited or intimidating, so you can get away with it–even when, for example, you bust on Mexicans.
You appreciate a good dirty joke as much as next person, but, over all, you’ve got a brainier approach to humor than most. Now just go out there and write up a routine; it’s likely you’d be good at it.

Ok I sort of agree with what this test says about my sense of humor
the Ham
(33% dark, 46% spontaneous, 21% vulgar)
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.

that about sums it up…
the Shock Jock
VULGAR | SPONTANEOUS | DARK
Your sense of humor is off-the-cuff and kind of gross. Is it is also sinister, cynical, and vaguely threatening to the purer folks of this world. You probably get off on that. You would cut a greasy fart, then blame it on your mom, and then just shrug when someone pointed out that she’s dead. (don’t agree with last sentence)
Yours is hands-down the most outrageous sense of humor; you like things trangressive and hardcore. It’s highly likely (a) you have no limits (b) you have no scruples and (c) you have no job. Ironically, it’s your type of humor that can make the biggest bucks in show business.
