You probably are smarter than others if you find humor even in the darkest of times a person can go through. People who appreciate dark humor, see or perceive even the bleakest times of life in a lighter way which isn’t very common. Such people have been found to be less aggressive and negative.
Anybody can have the sense to crack jokes about brighter things but what actually makes a difference is finding something to laugh at in the darkest hour. It takes courage! No matter how gruesome the subject may be, finding hilarity at such a topic is surely a Genius! A little sick, too, maybe, but well everybody has a different perspective. And different coping mechanisms.
We’ve gathered a compilation of comics where the artist, Mr. Lovenstein, has enlightened its viewers with unlit moments of life with a perfect blend of humor. If you’re someone who appreciates dark humor, this is surely for you!

Dark humor often makes it easy to process intense situations in life such as depression and even death. It helps you embrace difficult situations and deal with them like a man, well, you could be a woman too, of course. Often, the realities of life are kept hidden as they’re considered dingy but I think dark humor is an excellent tool for bringing these issues to light. Gives us some actual reality checks as the world isn’t just a fantasy. Sometimes we have to put our big boy/girl pants on and deal with the world, with sarcasm. Ahem! Oh well, gotta do what you gotta do.
Keep scrolling. This definitely isn’t the end!

The web is flooding with memes and comics made over common insecurities. Often even the people creating these memes, suffer from such insecurities. However, they find a way out to brush them off and create jokes about them. There are some people which would find this humor cruel but trust me there are folks out there who get motivation from such content.
Death, depression, and aging are components of life, they assure you that you’re living not just passing time. Not talking about these points wouldn’t help anyone out of it rather send them in denial. However, highlighting them would make people accept them in a manner that is less painful and hurting.
It wouldn’t be wrong to say ‘dark humor is evil at its best’ expressed in a lighter mood. Emotional dilemmas can be hard to bear, but yet again it’s what makes you stronger. Comics illustrating humor about such emotional dilemmas are ‘my type’ I believe they project emotional strength.
