the Prankster (30% dark, 34% spontaneous, 16% vulgar)

your humor style: CLEAN | COMPLEX | LIGHT Your humor has a slightly more intellectual or even conceptual slant to it. You're not pretentious at all, but you aren't into what some would call 'low humor'. This isn't to say you wouldn't laugh at a good dirty joke, but you'd definitely prefer something clever to something moist. You probably like well-thought-out pranks and/or spoofs and it's highly likely you've tried one of these things yourself. In a lot of ways, yours is the most entertaining type of humor.

I'm not sure that I'd put "complex" and "spontaneous" at opposite ends of the same axis. Spontaneous can still be complex - it's just not planned, which might be a more appropriate word than complex. Preferring light humor to dark humor, I can see.. though I do appreciate things like Dr. Strangelove. I also agree with preferring clean humor to vulgar humor, though I think most of the time it's that clean humor has to be funny and vulgar is too often expected to be funny just from being vulgar, which is not the case. George Carlin's famous "Seven Words" routine might be vulgar, but it's funny and intelligent, not just vulgar for vulgarity's sake.
