Call me insensitive, but as someone who experienced 9/11 as an adult, being able to enjoy actual funny jokes that reference the attack is kind of refreshing, especially jokes created by the generation born after it happened.
I have nothing concrete to base this on, but my observation is this:
-
A 9/11 joke written by someone who lived through it is more likely to be about 9/11
-
a 9/11 joke written by someone born after it happened is more likely to use 9/11 to punctuate a joke about something else
Either way, I find the latter group funnier.
Call me tower 7 the way her bush is nowhere near me but I’m collapsing anyway
New name for the Cuck Chair just dropped
Call me flight 93 because baby I’m going down whether i make it to my destination or not.
Now thats a banger
It’s a good thing. Humor helps us deal with things, and it’s a good sign you’ve processed an event if you can joke about it.
You might be spot on with those observations. Never thought of that.
humor can also be suppression (though probs not in this case lol)
Oh absolutely, that’s true too.
Emotions be complicated.
Ashley Gavin has a stand up special where she does some 9/11 jokes and they’re pretty good. I think she does a good job of it, but she wasn’t an adult when it happened so I think that changes her perspective.

Collapsing? Is that a good thing? I think I have sex differently than this poster
I thought everyone knew you couldn’t fall in love until you had collapsed in lust, or at least stumbled in physical attraction.
I would never normally associate anything positive with the word collapse and I gotta say that I kind of see what you mean, but I’m still not convinced it’s clear wording
