as i said earlier ,it is in the eye of the beholder, what might be entertaining to a person one night might not be the next night dependent on the their mood, the room can have an effect too-, which reminds me of the elbow room in kirkcaldy.
i remember doing a gig there and the vibe i was getting was "we are not going to laugh at your stories you bloody southern englishman, we are from the kingdom of fife", then i made some throwaway remark , darkhumour about death, and the whole place erupted with laughter, at what i thought was only mildly amusing, it was as if they had been bottling it up and finally they went off in a fizzbang   thats fifers for you , a remarkable breed of scots
