Black humour
Black humor, also known as dark comedy, is a style of humor that involves making light of serious, taboo, or sensitive topics such as death, illness, or disaster. It seeks to challenge conventional boundaries by highlighting the absurdity or irony in difficult situations. While it can be provocative or controversial, its intention is often to provoke reflection or to find humor where others might see tragedy. Black humor requires a nuanced understanding of context and audience, as it balances the uncomfortable with wit, aiming to confront difficult realities through satire or irony.
