Sense of humor The sense of humor has a different meaning and it depends on the country where you are. A good example could be the difference between the Spanish sense of humor and the British one, they are huge difference in which Spanish will find funny and which British people prefer when they make a joke. It is well know that British´s one is a very acid and ironic humor, they enjoy pulling somebody leg until it makes someone feel absolutly ashamed. In contrast the Spanish people choose laugh about daily situations which everyone could experiment one day of their life, common and embarrassing situations which might show a bad face from the society but in a kind way. I don´t know much about which are the subject of irish jokes, besides i don´t know which regions are considered funny in England, in contrast, in Spain Andalucía is the land of art, and there you will find events relative to the humor like Carnavales, one week where people make jokes about what is wrong in Spain but the people who is the critica about enjoy listening a song relative a his/her own mistake. To be honest, if i must to choose betwen the two differents senses of humor, i prefer the Spanish one, because i think that a joke should make you smile and it shouldn´t make you feel awesome bad

Sense of humor

The sense of humor has different meanings depending on the country you're in.
A good example could be the difference between the Spanish sense of humor and the British one. They are very distinct. in which Spanish will find funny and which British people prefer when they make a joke.
It is well known that British have a very acid and ironic humor; they will pull somebody's leg until he/she feels absolutely ashamed.
In contrast the Spanish people choose to laugh about daily situations which everyone could experience one day in their life, common and embarrassing situations which might shine a bad light on society but in a kind way.
I don't know much about which are the subject of Irish jokes, or in which regions of England these jokes are considered funny. In contrast, I do know in Spain Andalucía is the land of art, and there you will find events relative to their humor like Carnavales. Carnavales is one week where people make jokes about what is wrong in Spain and the people who fit the critica about enjoy listening to a song relative to his/her own mistake.
To be honest, if I must to choose betwen the two differents senses of humor, I prefer the Spanish one, because I think that a joke should make you smile and it shouldn't make you feel awesome bad. (The word "awesome" usually has a positive connotation)
