Which Comedy Style Matches Your Sense of Humor?

Every comedic style pulls laughter out of people in a completely different way, and the one that gets you every time says a lot about how your brain finds things funny. Some can't resist slapstick, physical and silly, laughing hardest at a well-timed pratfall or an exaggerated reaction. Others live for dry, deadpan delivery, understated and sharp, finding the funniest line in the one said completely straight-faced. Some love satire, observational and cutting, drawn to comedy that says something true about the world while making you laugh. And some are drawn to absurdist humor, surreal and random, finding comedy in things that don't need to make any sense at all.
