Just so.
It has long me appalled that so many Christians seem oblivious of the probability that Jesus had a really spiffo sense of humour. That given his humble upbringing and that most of his disciples were as common as muck,that he almost certainly had a quite vulgar sense of humour----telling and enjoying fart jokes for example.
I base my supposition on the knowledge that Jesus' dad Hughie* has a refined if a little dark, sense of humour. A glance at The Torah soon reveals just how witty the old man can be,and how fond he is of practical jokes. (EG Abraham and Job)
*Yes,his name is Hughie. Jesus' middle name is for his dad. Surely you've heard the expression 'Jesus H Christ?' I learned that fact in the army. Aussie soldiers are on first name terms with the Almighty,and can become quite rude in times of personal inconvenience. (monsoon rain filing one's boots and soaking one's groin, that kind of thing);
