like clowns and water sprinkling roses and hand buzzers, banana peel slips and pie fights will never ever ever be funny.

They are always funny! I've never seen a pie fight I didn't find funny. Or a banana peel slip! What about the one in Sleeper?

I love black and white slapstick comedy, if that counts.

I've never seen an unfunny polar bear. However, might not be funny if they try to eat you. Also, might not be funny if above bear were dead.

still bevens (bscrubbins), Thursday, 4 November 2004 19:14 (twenty years ago)

Hmmm. Best to not imagigoogle for "animals wearing clothes" with no filter.

Kevin Gilchrist (Mr Fusion), Thursday, 4 November 2004 19:15 (twenty years ago)

dude, why has men getting smacked in the crotch not graced this thread yet?

Because it's only funny when it happens to someone else, and each time it does happen to someone else, that means your turn draws nearer.

Hello and welcome to the Springfield Police Department Res-Q-Phone. If you know the name of the felony being committed, press 1. To choose from a list of felonies, press 2. If you are being murdered or are dialing from a rotary phone, please stay on the line.

You have chosen Regicide. If you know the name of the king or queen being murdered, press 1

Markelby (Mark C), Friday, 5 November 2004 12:50 (twenty years ago)

so you're saying regicide jokes are always funny?

OH MY GOD

I finally watched the intro Flash movie on the Zachary Allen site and I think I've hurt myself from laughing.

Also, obviously spliced-in film scenes are always funny.

I can't believe I clicked on that, but I'm so glad I did. It's like that thing in Harry Potter when the kid has to imagine Snape in his grandmother's clothes, to ridiculate his fear away.

Robots swearing = always funny. (Bender, R2D2, etc. Also, on The Mind of Mannie Fresh, Mannie has a robot voicemail filter that says things like "Damn that bitch desperate" in a computer voice. That shit is hi-larious, always.)

ten years pass...

when animals are referred to as "[given name] the [type of animal]", particularly if the animal has just died in a tragic fashion, eg Cecil the lion, Victor the giraffe

Phillip the Goldendoodle, RIP

the lungs of either a horse or a human baby (Old Lunch), Wednesday, 29 July 2015 17:08 (nine years ago)

In 1977, a giraffe called Victor tore a muscle in his leg, collapsed on his stomach, and was unable to get up. The press suggested that he had slipped while trying to mate and compared his situation to the splits.[12] All attempts to get him on his feet failed, and his plight became a major international news story. Portsmouth Dockyard made a hoist to attempt to raise him onto his feet. He died of a heart attack very shortly afterward in the arms of his keeper Ruth.[13] The publicity turned Marwell into a major tourist attraction, and interest was revived the following summer, when Victor's mate, Dribbles, gave birth to a female calf named Victoria.
