    The core of humor is exaggeration. The joke is that it only took 3 hours, and not the usual 3 years past their 18th birthday.

        And it’s not creepy in the slightest that this handsome, successful, rich middle-aged celebrity stops dating these young women right around the age the brain fully matures…

      It’s one of the categories of humor. You can also be funny by timing, reference earlier works or common knowledge, etc. Best jokes combine multiple things. In this case, exaggeration and reference to common knowledge (DiCaprio likes em young)
