Writing a researched argumentative essay on the use/emphasis on humiliation/discomfort in contemporary humor...

Questions I can choose:

Can humor be used to resist humiliation?
OR
Can humor change our perspectives on and response to a humiliating experience?

I need help finding research every database and library I looked at doesn't seem to have anything close to these...and also any points or ideas I could use as my focus/outline for one of the questions!

Thank you!
