I find that men find me physically attractive, but hate my personality.
I've been called weird since childhood, but always brushed it off. I always thought "being yourself" is the best case scenario, but being myself has gotten me nowhere.
I have an "off putting" very dark sense of humor (dead baby jokes and the like)
I can either be incredibly pessimistic or borderline flight attendant perky.
I get called weird by just about EVERYONE, but no one ever wants to help me be "less weird". Like, I wouldn't even know where to start.
And I'm not "weird" in the quirky goofy cute kind of way.
"Eccentricity" is pretty broad - it's impossible to say.
Yeah, some people are going to be "put off" by dead baby jokes, etc. But, there are infinite ways a person could be "eccentric."
Being "weird" in a way that alienates you and presents a barrier to social opportunities you want to have (don't know if this is the case for you, given your past posts and username) is simply a matter of failing to be aware of what's socially appropriate/failing to choose to comply with what's socially appropriate. Nobody can help you "be less weird" unless you are willing to work on accurately reading and appropriately responding to social cues.
Why do you continue to tell dead baby jokes which are not funny? Having a child die is traumatic.
It appears you know what the issues are yet you refuse to quit doing what you do so you can "be yourself".
You are causing your own problems and no one else can "help" you, you have to change yourself because you want to.
When it comes to dating, you're going to have to conform to certain standards.
Dead baby jokes are not funny, it's actually extremely insensitive and can be interpreted as twisted by some people. If you don't want to change, find a dude that is into what you are into. Other than that, work on yourself, and conform to what is acceptable to other people.

I kind of like shock value. I'm a "Madonna" in a sense.

What are the standards? It's not like people write this on a wall.
My friend is incredibly popular with everyone though she has more than few eccentricites. She's not out to put people off or show how eccentric she can be. She's herself...she likes herself and many people.
I have to wonder....from the threads you start here...if you really want to learn social skills....you seem to revel in being 'different'.
