anonymous jokes
دعابات حول أشخاص مجهولين / دعابات دون تسمية الأشخاص


Explanation:

الفكرة هي أن النكات (أو الدعابات) لا تتمحور حول، أو لا تسمي، أشخاصاً معينين. فبدلاً من أن نقول "فقد كولمبوس بوصلته ذات يوم..."، تصبح النكتة "المُغفلة" : "فقد أحد البحارة بوصلته..". كما يمكن استخدام إحدى هذه العبارات

دعابات حول أشخاص مجهولين
دعابات دون تسمية الأشخاص
دعابات مُغْفَلَة الاسم
دعابات دون تسمية
إلخ
