No. I had a German exchange student once. She told us a joke that was a simple statement of fact and nearly fell out of the chair busting herself up, and we were still waiting for the set-up, never and the punchline. Basically, German humor boils down to schadenfreude (no, really, she thought other people suffering was peak comedy) and statements of fact.
Edit: and sturgeons, apparently. Ngl, the sturgeon stuff gives me some hope for them.
Is there an offensive joke lurking or is it just total anti humor
It’s worse, it’s unintentional anti-humor.
