What do you think is the preferred style of humor that each type possesses or the relation between humor and certain functions?

I enjoy dark humor and creating PUNS...One particular situation I thought was funny was when I was working in a Math Clinic....I noticed the students stressing out a week prior to "Dead Week." I then stated: " We'll have ourselves a Medical Clinic by the time next week rolls around." One of my favorite comedians was George Carlin, who was very good at wordplay.

Dry humor. I find that most jokes lose any sense of comedy when the delivery overplays it, I feel like many stand-up comedians are incredibly boring to me for this reason.

Life is too short to be taken so seriously....Laughing is a good way to boost endorphins and stay optimistic, which will increase life span. A happy person may perceive life to be shorter than a depressed person, but what matters is the substance.

I always enjoyed Joe Kenda's dry humor in the series "Homicide Hunter." I definitely agree that too much expression can really downplay the delivery.

Ne humor is always welcome ... finding stupid connection bewteen concepts it's alot of fun.
Carefully written humor is fine too.

Sarcastic humor is fine when you can learn from it , being sarcastic just for that is just meh.

I use mostly dark humor, and dry humor. If I am doing puns, I over exaggerate it.

I tend to gravitate toward dark, absurd, over-the-top campy stuff, but I also enjoy my fair share of a dry British wit. As long as I find it funny, it could be anything really, even slapstick. Although, I don't find many stand-up comedians very funny either. I think it's because of the overly forced nature of it all; knowing that they're supposed to make me laugh ruins the whole experience for me. But comedy films are the exception, for some reason.

Anything silly, random, ridiculous. Jokes made at unexpected moments.

INFX, and I love sarcastic humor bordering on dark and cheesy. Like Tim Burton movies.

I do not enjoy any humor. But I think that Extroverted feeler type have a good sense of humor. ESTP can be a great comedian. Sometimes I do not realize that someone told me a humor until they told me that was just kidding.
