I'm currently +defining the type by a group of works I've read that I've not really enjoyed +which all gave me a siliar vibe. The group is Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adams +books, as well as Monty Python movies. + +The realisation came to me while I was reading the first chapter[^1] of [Beware of +Chicken](https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/39408/beware-of-chicken), which is a +highly rated progression fantasy series that also gave me that same vibe. + +Obviously, no beef with anyone that likes said comedies, but they're just not my +cup of tea. + +I think that the most accurate descriptors are satirical comedy, tongue-in-cheek +comedy or over-the-top comedy, but none of them fit the bill completely. + +[^1]: Note: I'm writing this right after reading chapter one, but I'm still going to +read a dozen more chapters to find out whether I'll like other aspects of the +series -- cgit v1.3.1
