Dark Humor: 1985

10 Curated Routines
1. Live Aid Satire

Parenting

"I told my son life isn’t fair. He said, "I know." I said, "Good, then you won’t be surprised when I forget to pick you up from school.""

3. Standard Satire
Gaming

"Nintendo was released in America. Finally, a way for children to stay inside and ignore the sun while developing the thumb coordination of a professional safe-cracker."

4. Medical Wit
Culture

"I told my doctor I was addicted to the 80s. He told me to "Relax" and gave me a pill that tasted like hairspray."

5. Suburban Dark
Consumerism

"My neighbor is so obsessed with status that he bought a cellular phone just so he could call people and tell them he’s currently standing in his own driveway."

Self-Deprecation

7. Era One-Liner

8. Charles Addams Style
Misanthropy

"I like my tea like I like my heart: stone cold and sitting in a dark room."
