Thread Name: Your attitudes toward 'what's funny'.
Subject: RE: Your attitudes toward 'what's funny'.
I like quirky stuff. Rick and Bill and I would have a big ol' time! King of the Hill is my favorite show on TV right now. I have grown weary of the Simpsons but it's still amusing. I laughed my ass off at Fargo. I hate to say I laughed at a murder mystery... but the kidnapping/murder business wasn't really what the story was about. Here, Marge, lemme fixya some eggs... he was funny lookin'..... hey, I was bangin that girl! Y'all realize the "funny lookin" guy played to goofy buffalo hunter in Lonesome Dove...

Cultural jokes... well... there are some that are lighthearted and funny and others that are downright mean-spirited. But I think most people can tell when someone's trying to be ugly on purpose.

And then there's that adolescent-type silliness that really just isn't all that funny. But I have to say, I laughed all the way through Austin Powers. Grooooovy, baybeeeee!
