vulgar humor
Jokes about bodily functions
Vulgar humor relies on crude, indecent, or taboo subject matter for comic effect—bodily functions, sex, obscenity.
The appeal is partly the shock of violating social propriety: The movie's vulgar humor isn't for everyone.
Fart jokes, dick jokes, and gross-out gags all fall under the umbrella.
Distinguished from wit or clever wordplay, vulgar humor aims lower—sometimes literally.
