  Do you have a broad sense of humor?

Broad meaning that you find a very wide variety of things funny, finding the humor in a lot of different kinds of things, amused by different "types" of humor: Slapstick, puns, word wit, spontaneous silliness, etc.

Half and half. Somewhat. I usually don't find typical jokes funny at all unless they're witty or told particularly well. My sense of humour is very dark. I don't like slapstick. The Chuckle Brothers conditioned me away from it.

Edit: Sack that. I watched Sherlock, Jr. yesterday (see avatar) and found it one of the funniest film I've seen in ages.

NO. I have a very small, sick sense of humor. Laughing is not in my stable of facial expressions. Neither is crying. Only have two actually - robotic spaced out android, or anger.

My sense of humor is so %&#@$ broad you could drive a truck through it! I laugh at most everything not so much for the humor rather for the irony!

Not really. I mostly go for esoteric humor, subtle absurdity based on absract associations, and similar word play. I hate slapstick and bathroom humor.

and what might that be? Do you like dry humor? How about dentist humor? (quite the opposite of dry, I'd say)

You will probably only find it funny if you like "The Office" anyway.

I gather that "The Office" is a TV show? (I don't watch TV, so...)

I like almost all types of humor. Even really child-like silly stuff. I especially like jokes that are funny once you realize it is a joke. You have to take off your seriousness cap and think like a goofball in order to get it. There has to be wit hidden in, though. The few things I don't find funny are mean spirited humor that has no wit, but only depends on offensiveness to be funny. Tacky t-shirts and insulting bumper stickers come to mind.

I know SC doesn't represent the general population, but I'd say that in general, people tend to be serious, especially around strangers. That's why sharing a joke or 'funny moment' with a total stranger is 10 times funnier than with someone you know. I love laughing with strangers. There's a distinct kind of giddiness to it.
