I'll take shit that never happened for $200
Nothing ever happens.
Still pretty funny.
The humor comes from absurdity. Knowing that it's made up greatly decreases the absurdity.
I'm an absurdist first when it comes to comedy. I still thought this was funny. I can get to the end and understand that it probably wasn't real while still enjoying the story. Source: will joke about punching a baby for the hell of it. Or a nun punching a baby.
So do you skip movies unless they're documentaries? It's OK for people to like fiction even if you don't.
I skip shitty, low quality fiction, yeah.
I never said it wasn't ok for you to like it. I don't judge people. I just judge jokes, and this is a sucky joke.
I like hearing a multi-cultural joke that isn't racist except towards U.S. Americans
