Talk:Off-color humor

message: blue humor is clearly a thing. the term is kinda dated but it's clearly one scale on which one can rate comedic performance, style or content. how blue is it? it would not be crazy to invent other "scales" on which to measure or describe humorous content. is it... racial, political, mainstream, self-deprecating, geography-oriented, esoteric- u get the idea. how much so?
I don't know what "off color humor" is. there's an encyclopedia entry for off color humor? that's gay. Ka-zizzlMc 05:03, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

message: ...I don't get it, why does humor have a color?  I've heard of the phrase tickle me pink and thought it was kinda weird.  I've never once laughed to the point where I've turned or felt pink, and I don't want to.  I've never felt "blue" I've never felt "green with envy"...
All of these colors should not be used with emotions, or humor... NEITHER have color
I think the term 'blue humour' comes from the lighting used in the comedy clubs/bars in which comedians who told dirty jokes performed. Colours and emotions go together perfectly. Black humour (a bit dark, associated with death?)... and what about Blues music?! Maybe 'tickled pink' is because people's faces turn red if they laugh a lot? (just a guess).  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.243.73.219 (talk) 11:21, 24 November 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: i don't get it

message: I think dickfor is hilarious, I'm kind of suprized at the things that get put in here, but if phrases like "off color humor" can go in, then dickfor should be automatically allowed as it's own entry.  I don't think you should merge those because they're all unique.  That'd be like merging George Washington, Bill Gates, important americans, and money and campaign together.  Just because they have some similarities, doesn't mean you should just throw them together.  They're all unique, and they all deserve there own page.

thread_title: back to the matter at hand

message: May I inquire as to why there is no separate entry for either "Facetious" or Facetiousness? When one types in the word "Facetious," he gets re-directed to "Humor", and when one types in the word "Facetiousness, strangely enough, he gets re-directed to "Off-Color Humor"!!! Why is this? "Facetiousness" doesn't generally doesn't fit into the category of "off-color humor". Not usually, that is. And "Humor" is too broad a subject in which to include a specific entity as "facetiousness" 
Another thing. Why should "Facetious" and "Facetiousness" be re-directed to two separate pages? 
At any rate, I believe that there should be a "Facetiousness" page to begin with. It's a specific subject all of its own.
And believe me, when I say this, I'm not being at all facetious.Runt (talk) 00:15, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

message: Incidentally, I agree with Tim. A "dick joke" doesn't have to be about an actual penis, meaning the male sexual organ. A "dick" also means a "detective". So a "dick joke" can also mean a "detective joke". Just like the W.C. Fields' movie, The Bank Dick. The movie refers to a bank guard, or if you prefer, a bank detective, not a "bank penis". Yes, there are a lot of people who work in banks who can easily be referred to as "bank dicks" who aren't bank guards or bank detectives, but these are the banks' CEOs and bank presidents, such as the corporate criminals at Citibank, who the government has bailed out, just to have them use the billions of those dollars for "naming rights" on stadiums, such as the New York Mets' new stadium, Citi Field. Yes, the Citbank corporate criminals are definitely bank dicks. -   Runt (talk) 00:35, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
