I can tell HN has no sense of humor by the unreadability of the comment.

It isn't that people here have no sense of humor, it's that internet humor tends to grow like weeds, and everyone overestimates how funny their jokes are. scott_s expressed this well a long time ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7609289.

Exceptionally witty comments tend to do well here, but they're rare.

We need a discussion of null on this website once every 3 months. This is no laughing matter.
