Perhaps a sense of the absurd matters because so much of what developers put up with is absurd - absurd schedules, absurd requirements, absurd hours. Treating the absurdities of the average development process with humor makes developers' jobs much easier.

I think it's rather that you need a good sense of logic to even notice - let alone truly appreciate - the absurdity of certain situations.
