What happens when shock humor isn't shocking anymore?

Asked by Blackberry (33955points) August 7th, 2011

Some of us like comics because they are cynical and use shock humor. But what about when it becomes more frequent? We can’t go back to liking old-school innocent jokes because people like Louis CK and Daniel Tosh set the bar too high.

Are we just going to be that older person that dislikes new comics that emerge because they were never as good as what we were used to?
