Well, the ones I report lately tend to be about sex, so yeah, twinleaf and SSSS have a point, for sure. I will address it with him tomorrow.
As far as other jokes go. Well, there was one really funny one about a year ago. I was talking about how hard it is to refrain from doing disruptive stuff all the time. he said, "I know what you mean. On my lunch hour I walked across the bridge to the highway and found this perfect rock to throw down on the cars below, and it wasn't until I had it in my hand that I realized that I shouldn't be engaging in this type of activity" I wasn't really paying attention, but I looked at him and practically yelled "you actually picked up a rock, thinking you might throw it?" He said- no, I was joking. Wanted to make sure you were still with me.
There are political jokes too. And jokes about bosses. In general, though, I'd say about 95% therapy and 5% joking.
I use humor as a defense mechanism /coping mechanism, so this works out well.
