British comedy can be difficult to quantify and categorize. The more you're exposed to it, the more you'll 'get' all of the subtle layers of irony and banter. However, British humor has a long history of satire, absurdity, sarcasm, self-deprecation, puns, and insults.

And if you follow any renowned British comedians, such as Jimmy Carr or Ricky Gervais, you'll know that taboo themes don't last long. Controversial? Naturally. Are you laughing so hard you can't breathe? It occurs more frequently than you might anticipate.
