Asperger humour

I have known several people with Aspergers who have made me laugh, more so than 'neurotypical' people have ever done. My dad, who has Asperger traits (but no diagnosis), has a childish and coarse sense of humour, but I always find him funny. What do you think? Are people with Aspergers more likely to find other people with Aspergers funny? Is there an Autistic comedy genre that needs to be researched? Because it is certainly not true that we lack a sense of humour. Maybe we just struggle to understand 'neurotypical' humour - I am trying not to generalise, we are all different!

  • I don't know if you find this fun, but I do..

    I said to my mum, "the only way to get a perfect response from you, is for me to speak to you but for me to also answer for you as well, but if you can just silencely just move your mouth it will help with motion".

    I would say to her "I am away home now",,, she replies "okay, drive carefully"..,, so I say " i am away home now".. (I her(me also) replies " it was a good having you here, I will see later on son, night x"

    I found that, the perfect conversation is.., me to you me.

    I am only kidding here,, but it was funny at the time.
