Fascinating, Nolan. I’ve never given a lot of thought to the cultural psychology of humor, but I have wondered about the often aggressive nature of humor amongst folks here in the US, a humor I’m not so drawn to, which may be the reason I have tended toward a certain skepticism about humor in general, even though my mind is witty--do I contradict myself? I contradict myself.
I’m enjoying this series (and meant to restack with a quote but wasn’t paying attention!).
Thank you, Renée! I’m curious what you’ll think about the upcoming two pieces. They stray away from psychology and dive into people’s opinions and observations.
