The bolded part (my bolding by the way) = "works for me."

What about this is so hard to grasp? I'm not questioning your right to not find something funny. I'm only pointing out that your point of view (with regard to what you find funny, or appropriately funny) is only your point of view. You can't point to something and definitively say, "that humor does not work." You can only point at it and say, "that humor does not work for me."

Thus, to say, "the only acceptable humor in epic fantasy is humor that works" is rather pointless.

See?? You just admitted it. So why do you fight me when I say it?
