108 Dry Humor Jokes That Feel Like A Mouth Full Of Sand

Dry humor jokes are not everyone’s cup of tea. They might sound stale and cringe to many, but if you have that specific sense of humor, there’s nothing better to mix in some dry humor into your daily jokes playlist.

One might also wonder, is dry humor attractive? Well, that’s the same as with the jokes itself. It all depends on the taste. If you have a dry sense of humor, there’s nothing better for the person in the same boat.

It’s hard to describe their nature without having any dry humor examples at hand, but we feel like the contents of this list will do just fine. From Batman discussing his preoccupation with a vengeance with his therapist to people advising against eating a clock (as it can be quite time-consuming), dry jokes of all kinds are gathered here. 

Some will make your eyes roll, some should make you think for a bit, and some even carry an uncanny resemblance to their better-loved cousin—dad jokes, yet, all are dry as hell. And be careful not to break your finger while scrolling! On the other hand, we think you might be OK. No, but seriously, be careful.
