Clappy Humor

What is Clappy Humor?


1.

A style of humor in which actual humor content is irrelevant. Instead, the comedian makes cutting, witty remarks about a person, idea or movement to which both he and his audience are largely opposed, and the audience does not actually laugh, but instead applauds his wit. Clappy humor is only there to make a political point and to be clapped at; it is not supposed to be "funny" or joke-based, as mere jokes and laughter would be considered frivolous by both comedian and audience.

The Daily Show used to be hilarious, but then they got started with all the clappy humor, and it just hasn't been the same.

See clappy, wit, intellectual
