Fail to understand sarcasm
Fail to understand deadpan humor
Fail to understand black humor
Needs to be explained a joke
Needs canned laughter track to be told when to laugh (that stuff drives me up the wall!)
Has 0 comprehension of what humor of the 2nd, 3rd & 4th degree could possibly be!
Whoosh

They stay stupid **** they don't mean:
"If you're ever in town, call me, I'll invite you to have lunch".
You're in town, you call and they go "WTF are you calling me".
Tell ugly people they look "pretty".
Sifting thru yanktard lies is exhausting.
