Abstract

Instead of delusion, which to me suggests irresponsible behavior, let's assume for the moment that titling is an invitation to connect imaginative processes. Jokes, puns, words games and metaphors relate to unconscious occurrences that call to be named in language, just as dreams demand to be visually deciphered. The social aim and function of humor is an expression of psychic evacuation, not dissimilar to lower forms of biological evacuation. Humor parallels dream mechanisms, although the function of humor is different. Jokes, puns, humor and comedy release repressed ideas and emotions and consequently set patterns for potential evacuation.
