Gálgahúmor is Icelandic for "dark humor" (or "gallows humor"), and as you can see from these super dark comics by Hugleikur Dagsson, Icelandic humor is darker than most.

Dagsson is a cartoonist, writer, and comedian. He's published around 20 books including titles such as I Hate Dolphins, Where's God, and My Pussy Is Hungry. Also, his online comics have over 113k likes on Facebook, although it's safe to say that not everybody will relate to his darker-than-dark sense of humor. Check out a sample of his webcomics below to see what we mean. Some won't find the jokes funny, and others will find them flat-out offensive, but for those of you who appreciate a heavy dose of darkness in your humor, these funny comics are for you. Don't forget to vote for your favorite! Be warned however that these comic strips contain themes and language that might not be safe for work...

Not only did the traitorous traitor who ever traitored actually refuse tea in the U.K., he didn't even bother with the English niceties required when refusing the SACRED NATIONAL FARKING BEVERAGE or anything else for that matter. Those niceties begin with "Oh thank you, luv; would adore some tea but doctor's orders, you see. Or some such very gentle, endearingly polite totally lying poppycock. Good thing the guy has no arms, otherwise he'd have probably punched tea lady right in the face just for asking.

Arg! Instead of this "mature content" warning Bored Panda should have a "Do not watch if you just had food" warning.

And you'll get excruciating cramps, mood swings, acne and pregnancy amongst many other horrible self esteem issues social media puts on you. Oh but you can't complain to the guys they just think you're a whiney b***h.

There dressed as bratz dolls. Or monster high. Both highly inappropriately dressed dolls with hooker boots puffed lips and mini skirts.

Pretty much exactly what I thought when I heard about Amy Winehouse's death. Cruel, I know.

A woman I dated mentioned to me that she had to reassure a new parent friend of hers that "it goes back".

I don't understand why the farmer and fisherman would even be THINKING of artists (I'm presuming the person that the EMTs are putting in the ambulance could be an artist).

in Iceland the government has something called Artist Salary that some chosen artist get to do there arts for a living on government paycheck. some folks in the other working classes such as the think the artist salary is a burden on the system. and thus the local humor about Icelandic artists :)

I never remember people's names, but luckily I have never once been called on it like this. I'm honestly not sure if I'm suave enough that nobody notices, or if they're just too polite to do this.

First time I saw that cartoon was in the 90s - and I've never forgotten it. It's darker than a black hole.
