One characteristic is the element of surprise. In funny edgy stories, something unexpected usually happens, like in the story of the clown with the falling pants. Another is that they often involve breaking some kind of social norm, even if it's minor. For example, the student making a paper airplane during class. Also, there's usually a quick shift from a potentially uncomfortable or inappropriate situation to one that is humorous. This makes the story both edgy and funny.
Well, funny edgy stories often play on the boundaries of propriety. They walk the line between what is acceptable and what might be considered a bit out there. This gives them their edge. For example, in a story where someone accidentally says a wrong word at a formal event. It's edgy because it's not what is supposed to happen at such an event, but it's funny because of the absurdity of the situation. Also, the characters in these stories usually have to think on their feet to turn the edgy situation into something humorous, which is another characteristic that makes these stories so interesting.
