See that’s actually funny. The sentence can be interpreted on multiple levels, there’s an element of surprise when you figure it out, there’s wordplay.
“Haha guy is on the floor having a panic attack” has none of that.
Compare to “there’s always money in the banana stand”, which is a brilliant setup and payoff. That’s the kind of stuff that makes me love a show. Wish it had worked for me overall.
We were invited to laugh along at the guy collapsed and hyperventilating on the floor, no thanks.
That’s fair.
Dark humor is like food. Not everyone gets it.
