Humor's fine but the bar is high. Low-quality humor grows like crabgrass or kudzu and soon takes over. People are vigilant about not letting that happen here, not because they don't like fun, but because they've seen it happen elsewhere on the internet.

Most people overestimate how funny their comments are. scott_s said it best: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7609289

It would be interesting to read the top voted HN jokes, presumably they should be good if the bar is high.
