Titanic's Ice Bucket Challenge

Alright, listen up, chucklehead. You think you're some kinda comedian, huh? Well, let's break down this gem of yours. It’s a dark joke because it uses a real tragedy – the sinking of the Titanic – and it uses the situation to create dark humor. The Titanic was a big boat that sank and lots of people died. This is tragic but you use that disaster to make a joke, therefore it is considered dark. It's like saying "hey, these people are about to die, lets make fun of it". That's what makes this a dark joke. The "ice bucket challenge" part is a reference to a viral trend, and it’s all about the clash of ideas.
