Nah, the paper used journalistic licesne.

The study stays, signs of dementia 'could' include a person's sense of humor quickly getting darker.

edit: I get that it's a meme, and it's a good one, just better to make sure people know the truth that goes with it :)

In that case you just won't have an early warning sign.

I’ve had dementia since I was a teenager. It’s not getting better, either.

Dementia is like food, not everybody gets it.

"I have such a dark and twisted sense of humor."

Every person on OP's friend list: "i hope his edgy phase is over soon."

“But flippancy is the best of all. In the first place it is very economical. Only a clever human can make a real Joke about virtue, or indeed about anything else; any of them can be trained to talk as if virtue were funny. Among flippant people the joke is always assumed to have been made. No one actually makes it; but every serious subject is discussed in a manner which implies that they have already found a ridiculous side to it. If prolonged, the habit of Flippancy builds up around a man the finest armour-plating against the Enemy that I know, and it is quite free from the dangers inherent in the other sources of laughter.

It is a thousand miles away from joy: it deadens, instead of sharpening, the intellect; and it excites no affection between those who practise it.”

So a demented sense of humor is a sign of dementia? Who would have thought.

[-] sag@lemm.ee 3 points 11 months ago

Oh no, Maybe I have dementia.

It's a TV show. No idea what a "FRIENDS list" is, though. Episode list? IMDb cast sheet? I guess the gang did get pretty dark sometimes, but dementia seems a stretch.

I remember when Joey couldn't remember how everyone was doing and had to keep asking. It was sad.
