Official funny stuff

[Wade]

I was going to post this in a thread of its own as it would make a great off topic thread in its own right.

So if it gets enough comments or likes I may just start a new thread with this as it is a topic worth talking about.

If you have a cat, you will understand.
If you do not have a cat, you will wonder why so many of us have cats.

Which reminds me of the scene from Heinleins stranger in a strange land when Michael finally groks laughter after watching monkeys in a zoo.

Its a peculiarity but the truth is, most of what we call humour pivots on the misfortune of another.
Slapstick for example includes violence in its definition, none of us would want a pie in the face, but watching it happen to some unsuspecting stooge is hilarious.
Jumping out from a hidden spot and shouting BOOO, terrifies the recipient, invoking a very real fight or flight reaction, but we find it sidesplitting

Everytime you see something "funny" look for the "misfortune" element, you'll be surprised how prevalent it is in what we call "funny"
