Hello all! My friend and I are currently conducting a study about cross-cultural communication. We thought it would be a good idea to test people from different cultures on various facets of culture. I figured one avenue could be here since we have a diversity of gamers on VGC. Below is a video that is extracted from a Jamaican comedy and imposed on a skit from Crank Yankers (for added humor, I suppose). Basically what I want to know is:

1 Did you comprehend it?

2 Did you find it funny?

3 Why or why not?

4 What cultural background do you come from? (you can also elaborate on your exposure ...  for instance you may be Chinese but made Jamaican friends in college so you understand their parlance).

 

 

Now I'm from Latin America, but I must admit, I LOVE British humor. A lot of that has to do with the exposure though. I made a lot of British friends growing up so what the Brits say is easily understood for me.

 

 

 

 

 

I am going to put up a poll but I will not make it exhaustive. I will limit the options for the purpose for the study. Thank you all in advance.
