Why do people find Jamaican mannerisms funny?


Recommended Posts

What is it about Jamaican culture and their mannerisms which so many people find amusing?

 

eg, i never hear of anyone finding Asian or Jewish cultures and their mannerisms amusing or been imitated and treated as a joke.

 

Actually, Jews, in their wonderfully self deprecating style of comedy will often joke about their mannerisms and traits because they are funny.

Quite, there's a strong tradition of Jewish humour and comedy, particularly in the States.

I don't know of many Jamaican people TBH and I suspect that most of the people who are considered by white British people to be Jamaican are actually more than likely Nigerian or Ghanaian
