Humor comes in all shapes, sizes, and colors. “Blue” is an industry term for vulgar, for example. And “Bad” is another for not funny. At the local open mic's I attend. There are a lot of Blue and Bad comics.
But that's just the beginning of it. There are a lot of humorists with a lot of different styles. The key, however, is to develop a style that is distinctive to you. There's dry, absurdist, one-linery, blue-collar, other words making me look knowledgeable, and observational.
And now there is WET HUMOR. I coined it. It's mine.
What is it? I still don't know, I just like the word. But here's a few hints in the right direction.
– WET- It's not Dry Humor. It's the first thing you would assume. WRONG! You take that approach and all you're left with is Frat boys eating poop and rubbing their vaginas. This ain't LITTLE MAN.
– WET- Oh like the tide coming in? YES it's like a flood of humor. you're enveloped, surrounded, and permeated by humor. What does that mean exactly? The ocean has many levels, wet humor has many levels. Watch out for that continental slope. You'll end up in deep humor territory.
– WET- Oh these sudden rainstorms catch me off gaurd. YES AGAIN! Wet humor is all about surprises. Rivers never flow in the same place twice. Wait, yes they do. SEE, That's what I'm talking about. That joke totally caught you when you least expected it.
– WET- spraying someone with a hose? YES! But only because it's so damn literal that it makes me laugh.
