According to Mary Douglas, jokes are a kind of anti-rituals operating in reality. Their anti-ritualism resides in mocking and parodying ritual social behaviour. In order to capture the anti-ritual character of the joke, suffice to imagine, Simon Critchley suggests, a bishop stuck in an elevator or spreading margarine on a communion wafer. A good example may also come from a joke recounted by Milan Kundera, the point of which is that, at a funeral, a hat falls onto a coffin, as it is being lowered into a grave. The funeral loses its ritual gravity and so the liberating laughter is born.
