scatological humor

Jokes about excrement

Scatological humor is comedy centered on feces, urination, flatulence, and other bodily functions.

The style ranges from children's potty jokes to sophisticated satire—Swift's "The Lady's Dressing Room" qualifies as much as a whoopee cushion.

The movie relied heavily on scatological humor, with fart jokes in nearly every scene.
