Dark humor isn’t for everyone. Those who don’t like it may have a problem with its supposed lack of empathy, its reliance on shock value, or its potential to trigger past traumatic experiences. 

But if this is your cup of tea, you may enjoy it for how it serves as a coping mechanism to help you deal with the absurdities around you. And if you do enjoy this type of humor, you may also get a kick out of the following memes on this list. 

We’ve collected these images from the Facebook page aptly called “I See Demons Staring At Memes.” If that name piqued your interest, go ahead and scroll through.

    You’ve likely heard about the connection between appreciating dark humor and intelligence. The explanation there is that processing this type of humor takes some “mental gymnastics” because it’s a “complex information-processing task.” 

    Experts also say that dark humor requires more emotional nuance than simpler jokes like puns. This means that your brain’s left and right hemispheres are going against each other as you process these “darker” jokes. Simply put, you’re doing more thinking without even realizing it.

    "At times when we are engaging in dark humor, it's often because we are having an overwhelming experience of the more 'negative' or challenging emotions, such as grief, sadness, and anxiety,” Brummell said

    Challenging times may lead to the loss of personal power and control. People experience this when dealing with the loss of a loved one or a failed relationship. According to Brummell, dark humor can help a person regain control. 

    “The use of dark humor can, if nothing else, offer a chance to choose how we respond to what is going on. It can make us feel a little more in control than we otherwise would have,” she said.

    Of course, dark humor has its negative side. We can’t recognize that. For one, it can hinder people from moving forward from the dark episodes they are going through. 

    Like with anything in life, it’s all about finding the right balance, which is why Brummell reminds us about the importance of using it strictly for the funny aspect, as well as how it uplifts the spirit. 

    “Overdoing it to a point where we push people away and refuse to accept what we're going through, that can cause issues,” she said.
