And our accusations have a moral tinge: we decry people for being sanctimonious buzzkills, and command them to\u00a0 \u2018get over themselves\u2019. But are these moralized reactions justified? And what, if anything, justifies them? In this paper I argue that humourlessness often is a moral failing. This is because humorlessness often involves a disrespectful failure or refusal to engage with other peoples&#8217; perspectives.
