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 :)
but it’s been my brand since I was 9
In that case you just won’t have an early warning sign.
Yeah, a dark sense of humor is a pretty common coping mechanism for millennials and gen Z, although gen Z tends to be more nihilistic (and rightly so considering the state of the world)
More than a few of us gen x’ers too.
I’d say Gen Z is polarised on this just like with everything else. You either got the nihilistic doomers or the positive absurdists

I’ve had dementia since I was a teenager. It’s not getting better, either.
Not as far as I can remember anyway
Dementia is like food, not everybody gets it.
This is what I’m here for
Well we’re sinking on this ship together buddy. Just for your information though, I will be shoving you under the water to give myself a last desperate attempt at survival. No harsh feelings.
I’d expect nothing less
“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.”
“please let him stop with the rape/child abuse jokes”
“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.”
- C.S. Lewis
I got rid of all my friends.
They were smelling up the Quiet Time pit You wouldn’t believe how many flies there were!
So a demented sense of humor is a sign of dementia? Who would have thought.
Oh no, Maybe I have dementia.
Friends?
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.
