| Description | The presentations deals with the phenomenon of humour in readers' online comments on the topic of the recent migrant crisis. It pays attention to how the commentors draw on shared cultural knowledge, using irony and allusion to poke fun at various outgroups, while constructing a sense of an imaginary (national) community bound. |
