Elevator or lift, school or shooting range

  • An American is lecturing a British person, saying things like "it's an elevator, not a lift" and "it's chips, not crisps" etc. After a while of this, the British person calmly retorted, "they're schools, not shooting ranges."

  • Explanation

  • The joke plays on the stereotype of Americans correcting British English and the real-world issue of school shootings in the US. It's dark humor because it uses a tragic event for a punchline.

  • That's more of a dark roast than a joke.

    Thing is, school shootings are rare. Most of them are just an accidental discharge that harms no one.
