Someone once asked me what I felt was the best indicator of intelligence. I said it was wit and a quick mind. Humor requires the brain to be able to process quickly on many levels.
Not getting a joke is like failing a question on an IQ test.

I don’t get it.
Yeah, people are dumb af, it’s Owen Wilson in #3, and everybody knows that red and green lights are always in same position, red top, and green bottom.
Same reason the aliens never returned.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Oh, I must be brilliant!
Watch out, Einstein … comin’ thru!
I have a theory. It’s caused by cell phones. All of it.
I think the astronauts were just holding their breath.

And it’s Mona Lisa, not Liza. Duh!
For 30 years schools have been dumbing down education, now they vote democrat.
I remember someone called a radio show to complain about the “Deer Crossing” sign, stating, “To many deer get killed there now”.
You’re scaring me, Angus.
In case anyone was wondering, the scene of the couple in the car was from “The Honeymoon Killers.”
You can clap now.
Brad, you may have something there.
I remember having volumes of phone numbers in my head, then cell phones came along and it became unnecessary.
Now I can’t remember any phone #s.
That was some funny shit.
Can I ask you a

Actually, that concreteness, that inability to understand wordplay, is a sign of dementia.
“We investigated concreteness effects in the comprehension of six SD patients. Across nouns, verbs, synonymous and associative relationships, a clear and consistent pattern emerged: concrete words were always comprehended more successfully than abstract words.”

It’s the edumacation system. Do they even teach English composition or understanding literature anymore? Everything is about deviant sex?
Ha ha ha ha etc. I must be smart, I only had to look half of them up, the other half I didn’t get at all.
I’m no Alfred Einstein, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express…
If people listened to more country music and threw out all the rap crap the IQ in this country would rise 110%. Country music seems to thrive on word play, rap music not so much.
Of course, now that the trans have invaded the Country Music Awards, all bets are off.
What I find funny is the people correcting the others can be seen as the ones not getting a sarcastic dead pan joke – AKA a Dad joke.
And some people even on here aren’t getting that angle, either.
Dad jokes go over the head of some people every time. Ask me about my Ex. She took every joke seriously. It was an extra giggle when others were around and felt the need to explain them to her.
I could see myself saying 1, 2, 4, & 5 – but only in front of other high IQ friends that would know that I know better and get the dead pan stupid-on-purpose statement.
Yup, 81M of them
