It is that time of the logic course where we cover fallacies and I always use this time to also talk about humor. The main reason is that talking about humor means playing some hilarious videos which main class more enjoyable. But it also brings up a very interesting point - and very real point - that jokes seem to be invalid arguments. So what we can do is look at the varieties of fallacies and compare them to the varieties of jokes to see if the templates behind the fallacies are similar to those that seem to structure the jokes. Keep in mind that behind this whole exercise is making the point that the structure of fallacies / jokes might be entertaining but what makes the structure funny is at the same time what makes the structure a poor way to frame an argument.
