Dilbert Humor Quotient

I have this nagging feeling that how funny one perceives Dilbert to be is directly related in some fashion to how bad things are at your current job and previous jobs. There must be some mathematical expression to express this:

H = h * sum( j[i])

H = How funny Dilbert is perceived to be
h = universal personal humor constant
j = how pointed haired your boss was at job[i]

H is self explanatory

h is a constant related to personal taste regarding humor. Someone who can't read English might have an h approaching 0 while one of your paid minions might have an h approaching infinity. The former thinking your comic is completely unfunny, the latter telling you your comic is the funniest thing since some guy invented that funniest thing saying.

j = is a measure of how well Dilbert relates to the work environment. If one works for a place where the employees are appreciated and decisions are made in a win-win paradigm, then j would be quite low. It increases as Dilbert becomes more true to life.

This theory of the Dilbert Humor Quotient came to me over the last couple of years. 2 years ago, Dilbert wasn't that funny to me. I just couldn't relate and it seemed cynical. Then we got new management and Dilbert has gotten funnier over the last 2 years. Even the older Dilberts got funnier somehow. The attitude changed from "Nobody really does that" to "Hey, that reminds me of when Dilbert did ... ". Also, the number and poignancy of the Dilberts tacked to bulletin boards has gone up. Maybe the Dilbert Humor Quotient needs to be amended to included the number of Dilberts hung for public display. That exercise will be left up to the reader.
