Dark vs Morbid Humor
Categories
Explanation
Experiment
The joke plays on the concept of dark versus morbid humor by using the disturbing image of babies in trash cans. Dark humor is portrayed as a situation where many babies are together, while morbid humor has a single baby spread across many trash cans. It suggests that morbid humor is even more disturbing because of the focus on the individual rather than a group.
