EN: gutter humor, low-brow comedy
The type of comedy that makes you laugh but also makes you feel a little bit guilty. Think green jokes, slapstick that's a bit too painful, and memes that would get you cancelled if you posted them on your main account. It's the humor of the masses, unfiltered and often politically incorrect.
Combination of Tagalog 'kanal' (gutter, low-brow) and English 'humor'.
ROOT MEANING: low-brow, crass, tacky, gutter
Often used interchangeably with 'kanalhumor' (one word), which is also used as a hashtag.
