Yet Another Internet Quiz
According to the The 3-Variable Funny Test, this is me:
the Wit
(61% dark, 26% spontaneous, 15% vulgar)
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.
...
If that's true, why did the picture of the drunk guy make me laugh out loud? More miscellaneous blather deleted here, but the quiz is worth taking just to see this chart:
(via a kindred wit)
interestingly, the whole site is blocked due to vulgar content.
Posted by: Mike at October 12, 2005 09:54 AMah, well, they do have to test your score along the clean/vulgar axis, so...
I'm a prankster.
It's strange, I thought the funniest part of the test was the "this page intentionally left blank" page.
oh well.
Tedious
I was a little scared to take this test. I didn't want to know how bad I am.

***
Your humor has an intellectual, even conceptual slant to it. You're not pretentious, but you're not into what some would call 'low humor' either. You'll laugh at a good dirty joke, but you definitely prefer something clever to something moist.
You probably like well-thought-out pranks and/or spoofs and it's highly likely you've tried one of these things yourself. In a lot of ways, yours is the most entertaining type of humor because it's smart without being mean-spirited.
PEOPLE LIKE YOU: Conan O'Brian - Ashton Kutcher
*****
I really dislike Kutcher.
I'm a wit, too -- (71% dark, 34% spontaneous, 10% vulgar). But I thought the drunk guy was funny (inside funny, not laugh out loud funny).
