One of the subtle cultural differences I notice whenever I cross the border down into the states, is that a lot of the implied humour in some of the absurd things I'd joke about just isn't received like I'd expect. Not even necessarily absurd actually, it could just be something mildly exaggerated for comedic effect in regular situations. Not all the time, but enough that I notice and dial it back depending on where I am.
