observational humor

Observational humor involves making witty or amusing comments about everyday life and common experiences that many people recognize. It highlights the humor in ordinary situations, such as habits, social behaviors, or cultural quirks, often revealing how strange or funny they can be when looked at closely. Comedians use observational humor to connect with audiences by pointing out shared realities, making us laugh at the familiar aspects of our daily routines and interactions. It’s effective because it resonates with personal experiences, turning ordinary moments into comedic insights.
