In order to explain this subreddit's massive success we need to get a little academic. Part of its appeal could probably be understood with the incongruity theory of humor.

According to Dr. Alex Borgella, who is an assistant professor of psychology at Fort Lewis College, it "suggests that we find fundamentally incompatible concepts or unexpected resolutions funny. Basically, we find humor in the incongruity between our expectations and reality."

This is similar to the techniques of stand-up comedians today — they speak of the set-up and the punch (line).

The set-up is the first part of the joke and it creates the expectation while the punch (line) is the last part that violates that expectation. In the language of the incongruity theory, the joke’s ending is incongruous with the beginning.

Indeed, many of the posts on 'Comedy Heaven' involve setups that lead to unexpected punchlines, such as a girl who drew a picture of her cat and thanked the vet for "carefully removing its testicles," or a chat between two people discussing Roe vs. Wade, only for one to reply they don't watch boxing.

Aaaaand...that's how egregious, draconian laws are passed; too few folks are aware of and/or care about the effects of laws that they don't think about or think will affect them. No one cares until it happens to them.

The "slap heard 'round the world" wasn't a big deal to Odie and Nermel. They are more fans of the Golden Globes.

The first philosopher to use the word incongruous when analyzing humor was James Beattie (1779).

When we see something funny, he said, our laughter "always proceeds from a sentiment or emotion, excited in the mind, in consequence of certain objects or ideas being presented to it."

Our laughter "seems to arise from the view of things incongruous united in the same assemblage."

And the cause of humorous laughter is "two or more inconsistent, unsuitable, or incongruous parts or circumstances, considered as united in one complex object or assemblage, as acquiring a sort of mutual relation from the peculiar manner in which the mind takes notice of them," Beattie thought.

My mom never would have let me live that down. She’d be gleefully planning out how to work that story into her speech at my wedding.

Record the next boink to show him what you're talking about, and what you don't like. Don't forget to delete after it's served its purpose, lest you accidentally post it somewhere.

I suggest the wife activates her own "Dead Log" mode during sex if the husband does it again.

Shine a really bright LED flashlight at him everytime. Aim for his face. It will turn him to stone, according to my source (Tolkien), and then he will have to shut up... conditioning at its finest! 👍 oh... wait... that's trolls. Still , I think the flashlight might work. Or, an air horn and counseling 😬. Best wishes!

Tell him that goblins don't get sex and they don't sleep in houses. Anyone with goblin-mode symptoms should be returned to their cave for as long as it takes for them to either overcome the condition, or return to the animal kingdom...

A couple therapist might help. That being said, noises during sex that sound very much "caveman" are normal.
