My ongoing bickering with JP5 over humor has reminded me of this test. It's kind of fun. Just a warning (the Force disclaimer): Some of the material is offensive- how else are they supposed to judge how vulgar your sense of humor is?
I scored this:

I do have quite the reputation, don't I? Without taking the test (thanks for the warning), I can tell you that I have a good sense of humor- unless the subject matter becomes non-Puritanical. Then I become a humorless, enraged autocrat.

Out of 1/3 of questions, I have to check the dictionary and here is the result.

Your humor's mostly innocent and off-the-cuff, but somehow there's something slightly menacing about you. Part of your humor is making people a little uncomfortable, even if the things you say aren't themselves confrontational. You probably have a very dry delivery, or are seriously over-the-top.

Your type is the most likely to appreciate a good insult and/or broken bone and/or very very fat person dancing.

We have a caffeine addicted you and Coffee addicted him as well as a nicotine addicted me... let's have a party.

Geesh... there are a dozen of alcohol addicted showing up here suddenly...Can't attract any drug addicted... they all rush straight to the other side of the border now.

I remembered those days where ever there's a party there are so many of US involved happily, nowadays all the party starts feel like a church gathering.

So what is the dark/light variable? What would be an example of each end of the spectrum?

You like things silly, immediate, and, above all, outrageous. Ixne on the subtle word play, more testicles on fire, please. People like you are the most likely to RECEIVE internet forwards--and also the most likely to save them in a special folder entitled 'HOLY (*)(*)(*)(*)'.

Because it's so easily appreciated, and often wacky and physical, your sense of humor never ceases to amuse your friends. Most realize that there's a sly intelligence and a knowing wink to your tastes. Your sense of humor could be called 'anti-pretentious'--but paradoxically enough, that indicates you're smarter than most.

Oh yeah. That's definitely me. Not a big Belushi fan though - the rest of it is spot on though
