My mother is shopping for shoes. Suddenly she turns to me with a pained look.
“Please, I beg you, tell me honestly, am I dying?” she asks. “I don’t want to buy the shoes if it turns out I won’t live to wear them. That’s such a waste of money.”
“Well, we’ve got to bury you in something,” I answer.
Our humor is very dark. I wouldn’t make this joke to anybody who’s not one of us.

“humor is very dark”
One I heard recently here.
A man is standing at an open window on the 10th floor and staring out gloomily.
“I don’t know where to close this or jump out of it” he says.
“Then jump and I’ll close it after you” his wife offers.

Joke in SA, what did they have in Zimbabwe before candles? Answer electricity.
For all the people who say SA is the next Zimbabwe, there are probably even more people who consider it a cautionary example of what not to do.
