    Nah, the paper used journalistic licesne.

    The study stays, signs of dementia ‘could’ include a person’s sense of humor quickly getting darker.

    edit: I get that it’s a meme, and it’s a good one, just better to make sure people know the truth that goes with it :)

        In that case you just won’t have an early warning sign.

      Yeah, a dark sense of humor is a pretty common coping mechanism for millennials and gen Z, although gen Z tends to be more nihilistic (and rightly so considering the state of the world)

        I’d say Gen Z is polarised on this just like with everything else. You either got the nihilistic doomers or the positive absurdists

    I’ve had dementia since I was a teenager. It’s not getting better, either.

    “I have such a dark and twisted sense of humor.”

    Every person on OP’s friend list: “i hope his edgy phase is over soon.”

    “But flippancy is the best of all. In the first place it is very economical. Only a clever human can make a real Joke about virtue, or indeed about anything else; any of them can be trained to talk as if virtue were funny. Among flippant people the joke is always assumed to have been made. No one actually makes it; but every serious subject is discussed in a manner which implies that they have already found a ridiculous side to it. If prolonged, the habit of Flippancy builds up around a man the finest armour-plating against the Enemy that I know, and it is quite free from the dangers inherent in the other sources of laughter.

    It is a thousand miles away from joy: it deadens, instead of sharpening, the intellect; and it excites no affection between those who practise it.”

    So a demented sense of humor is a sign of dementia? Who would have thought.

      It’s a TV show. No idea what a “FRIENDS list” is, though. Episode list? IMDb cast sheet? I guess the gang did get pretty dark sometimes, but dementia seems a stretch.

        I remember when Joey couldn’t remember how everyone was doing and had to keep asking. It was sad.
