[Seamus28241]

White Americans just have a great sense of humor. This is a result of their rather privileged status in history and a bit of rebellion against it, but it's also because of the working-class Anglo mores that are quite apparent in American culture. It's a culture that loves to poke fun at itself with all the irony it can muster. I spend a lot of time in Great Britain, and it's certainly very apparent there. However, I think white jokes are getting tired. Not because of subject matter, but because of application. It hasn't moved really far since Richard Pryor was cracking up my mom with those bits. Occasionally a comedian does it well, but nine others just go through the motions of a bad parody.
