The best stories in the world to me are the ones that elicit a real emotion, but have humour  (Humour Quotes) I try to offset any tendency towards the macabre with humour. As I see it, this is a typically English form of humour. It's a piece with such jokes as the one about the man who was being led to the gallows to be hanged.
