Of course I’m referring to ethnicities, lifestyles (this is a coverall, please don’t hate on me), genders, sexualities, and culture. Let’s try to avoid offensive language and phrasing. For the sake of friendly banter, just be as friendly you can be and use neutral phrases as much as you can muster. And I mean comedy. I prefer situational comedy or comedy stories. Like there’s people that can just word a story right where it’s informative and hilarious. And why?

    Usually the people that aren’t necessarily trying to be funny. Or those who are trying to be funny but in an angry, observational humor kind of way. e.g. Lewis Black

      I love Lewis Black. I still remember his whole rant about the superbowl

    Mexicans. And I don’t say that because I am one, we are genuinely hilarious. We always prank each other with the most racist of stuff we can possibly find, call each other such vile yet affectionate nicknames, etc.

    Though I suppose it may not be limited to Mexicans only. Maybe just people with a good sense of humor that aren’t so sensitive and can take a joke? Dunno.

    My favorite is being witty. Coming up with an unexpected funny response in natural conversation.

    Also, the way you worded this question is definitely getting close to hate speech territory, so I’m answering how I HOPE you intended.

        To say any one particular group, be it ethnicity, race, sexuality or otherwise is funnier than the rest, is still a broad stroke generalization. Just because you’re saying something positive instead of negative doesn’t make it any less problematic. It’d be like if I said all black people are really hip and trendy. That wouldn’t be okay. People are individuals.
