Dominican humor is for me pretty stupid. They find body humor, sexual and bathroom humor to be hysterical.
Just watch their "variety" shows and you will see.
However, a sense of humor is mandatory to living here!

Learned these saying from Milagros my Dominican mother in law.
She like one of my favorite sayings "it's a free country" LOL.
