Dark Humor: 1994

10 Curated Routines
1. O.J. Era Satire
O.J. Simpson/Media

"The O.J. Simpson chase happened today. It’s the first time in history a man was chased by the police at 35 miles per hour and still managed to make everyone in America late for dinner."

2. Gallows Humor
Economics/Health

"My doctor told me I had a "sleeping disorder." I told him I sleep just fine; it’s the waking up to my bank balance that’s the problem."

3. Standard Satire
Technology/Internet

"The first banner ad appeared on the internet. Finally, the information superhighway has its first billboard for a product you don't need and a virus you didn't ask for."

4. Medical Wit
Economics/Health

"I told my psychiatrist I was feeling like a bridge. He said, "I know, I saw your dental bill; it’s a suspension bridge for a very wealthy family.""

5. Suburban Dark
Nihilism/Mental Health

"My neighbor is so depressed he decided to "reconnect with nature." He’s currently living in a tree in his backyard and throwing pinecones at the mailman."

6. Era One-Liner
Movies/Nihilism

"Forrest Gump was a hit. A movie that proves if you’re slow enough and lucky enough, you can witness every tragedy in American history without ever realizing how miserable you should be."

7. Charles Addams Style
Misanthropy

"I don’t need an alarm clock. The screams of my own conscience wake me up every morning at 6:00 AM sharp."

8. Existentialism
Nihilism

"Life is like a box of chocolates. Most of it is filled with stuff you don't like, and it’s usually way past its expiration date."

9. Dark Wit
Cynicism

"A pessimist is a man who thinks things are as bad as they can get. An optimist is a man who knows they can get much worse."

10. Kurt Cobain Post-Mortem
