Why has German humour always been historically shit? Well maybe that's unfair, but why can it not translate well to other languages?

Lot of puns and wordplay and goofy backwooders talking funny in their dialects

Germans are hilarious, they are just not aware of it

Americans have the best humour as we all know....

funny german joke

>translating other languages jokes and expecting them to work in your language

Amerifat, stay mad.

>tfw you've been working on dispelling this stereotype by shitposting for two years already
ANY DAY NOW
This; it doesn't translate well nor do most people make an effort to compensate
>Japanese are the funniest
Unintentionally so.

germans and japs are actually objectively the LEAST funniest races. Really makes you think, considering their past association

t. spic.

I had a few laughs from Look Who's Back

Making other people laugh requires empathy. The Germans, having only potential for destruction and genocide, utterly lack it.

It has very little to do with language, as proven by the fact that the Austrians are pretty funny, and the "German" speaking Swiss are downright hilarious the moment they open their mouths to speak.

American humour isn't better, it is associated with movies like "American pie" which is literally shit for degenerates..

Cute. :3

Et tu?
KANKER

We have a comedian who made a joke about Erdoğan, soon afterwards we was put under police protection, his TV show was temporarely shut down, Merkel said he was acting disrespectful towards Erdoğan and phoned the Turkish government.

Humour is dangerous.

what are you talking about Ivan, Russian humour is stabbing a guy then laughing at him

>Humour is dangerous.

Humour start wars, just look at the situation when Hitler joked about annexing Gdańsk and Polish corridor! That one escalated quickly!

If nations were comedians, Germany is the guy who runs up to people, punches them in the nuts, and the moment they start retaliating by breaking Germany's wrists he cries out "IT'S JUST A PRANK, BRO!".

kek'd.
And I totally agree.

Pretty much this, but still even Soviet comedies were superior to the American ones, which are totally about somebody's virginity losing process.

I know what you mean, Polish communist era comedies were goat, directors and screenwriters had to be really clever to "smuggle" jokes about communists into the movie under the censorship noses...
