Can you share some dark humor stories?

A cemetery worker was asked why he liked his job. He said, 'Well, it's the only place where people are always laid back.' This dark humor story uses a play on words with 'laid back' in the context of a cemetery where people are literally laid to rest.

Here's one. A man goes to the doctor and says, 'Doctor, I think I'm a moth.' The doctor says, 'Well, you should see a psychiatrist. Why did you come to me?' The man replies, 'The light was on here.'

Once, a man went to the doctor. He said, 'Doc, I keep seeing an onion everywhere I look.' The doctor replied, 'That's a rather strange condition. Have you tried not looking?' It's a bit of dark humor as it plays on the absurdity of the situation in a private, individual - centered scenario.

Sure. Here is one: A man goes to the doctor and says, 'Doctor, I think I'm a moth.' The doctor says, 'Well, why did you come in here then?' The man replies, 'The light was on.' This short story has a touch of dark humor as it plays on the man's delusion in a rather unexpected and somewhat morbid way.

Once, a politician gave a long speech about reducing waste. But right after that, he ordered a ten - course meal just for himself at a fancy restaurant. It's like he was saying one thing but doing the complete opposite, which is a bit of a dark political humor in itself.

One dark humor story is about a man who went to a cemetery and said, 'This place is so crowded. People are just dying to get in here.' It's bad because it makes light of death in a rather macabre way.

Here is one. A man goes to the doctor and says, 'Doctor, I think I'm a moth.' The doctor says, 'I'm a doctor, not a psychiatrist. Why did you come here?' The man replies, 'Well, your light was on.'

Roald Dahl's 'Lamb to the Slaughter' is also a great example. A wife kills her husband with a frozen leg of lamb and then cooks it and serves it to the police who come to investigate. The contrast between the grisly act and the domestic, almost comical situation that follows is full of dark humor.

One is 'The Lottery' by Shirley Jackson. It's about a small town's annual lottery, which seems like a normal event at first but takes a dark turn when the 'winner' is stoned to death. It uses the concept of tradition to create a sense of dark humor.

Sure. There's a story about a little boy who has an imaginary friend. But this imaginary friend is a grumpy old man who constantly complains. One night, the boy says he's scared of the dark. The old man says 'The dark is the least of your problems, kid. Wait until you see what real monsters look like'. It's a short but darkly humorous story.
