The 5 most humorous actions of our time.

I can only speak for myself, but there are some things that never seem to fail to bring a smile to my face or a laugh to my mouth.

Mud. There's something just so comical about mud. People covered in mud. Vehicles stuck in mud. Throwing mud. Mud makes me laugh. :)

Groin Strikes. Maybe I'm an incurable adolescent, but seeing someone get smacked in the bollocks makes me laugh every time.

Humility. I love seeing prominent figures who(in my opinion) think too highly of themselves get knocked down a peg or two. When I saw photos of Bill Gates getting pied, I laughed out loud.

Unexpected De-clothings. Don't you laugh out loud when you see somebody who ends up in an unexpected state of undress in public? Whether it be underwear showing, or the full monty, I can't help but chuckle. Which makes me happy that some foolish teens still wander around town with their skivvies showing. Keep it up, kids. Some of us are enjoying your idiocy. ;)

Ludicrous Truths I love it when people manage to reveal just how stupid something really is. George Carlin is famous for this.

What makes you laugh, whether you want to or not?

I don't know whether to be sad for you, or happy that my madness is spreading. ;)

i was gonna act all superior over your list when i remember how hard i laughed when i saw a teenager with saggy pants have them fall around his ankles when he tried to cross the street.

i dont normally laugh at pain

i like unexpected (but not painful) twists of fate.

and a certain amount of abject stupidity "excuse me but do these stairs go up or down?"

Little kids dancing make me laugh, because they're both very funny and completely delightful. Little kids rule. :D

Its always funny to see people fall of river banks. People falling off stuff is funny, like chairs and ladders. Also, i find people walking into things funny, like windows and lamp posts and things.

Irony. Even when I notice it’s directed at me. As soon as I cool down enough I suddenly start laughing.

Other people my age are pretty funny. I'm 13 and many comment I'm quite mature. So it's funny to watch the same people who call me retarded names (what the hell is a dickmonkey?) then watch them be humiliated by themselves. One girls skirt was so tight it ripped and she fell down the stairs. And a guys pants were so low practically all his underwear was shwing. Amazing he didn't trip.

For example....this past week, we had a tornado watch and a severe thunderstorm warning...I was at work, but my mom told me about the message my brothers left... it goes like this

KYLE: Hi mom....uh...we just wanted to tell you......uh......we're over at Matt's, and.....uh....we're REALLY really scared
KEVIN: (in background) your scared, I'm not
KYLE: Shuttup Kevin. WE'RE really scared mom, ok? ok bye.



Or the time Kevin was trying to pull himself up on the monkey bars....instead of pulling his chin over the bar, he went straight up and wacked his head, and gave himself a concussion.... I've got more if you want...

That last bit is funny as heck...any more?

O god...let's see....

The time Kyle was annoying Kevin and Trevor, so they duct taped his head...he thought it was funny til they tried to get it off...

Or the time Kyle had a project he forgot about til the night before it was due..he was working in his room and singing "I'm so screwed...."

And then Kevin was up at a campsite in the dead of winter, and we made a fire, and it was really smokey. Well, the wind kept blowing the ash on him, so he'd move, then the wind would change direction, and Kevin thought it was following him (he's autistic) so he finally just yells out "dumb ash"...my grandparents were horrified....

and yes, I have plenty of stories to entertain....

or the time he was afraid he and Patch (his stuffed dog toy thing whose head is about to fall off) were going to be sent to (and I'm not kidding) "afagastan"

Afagastan. Heh.

I went camping with some friends and one of them claimed to be immune to poison ivy. Well, we dared him to prove it. So he rolls around naked in a patch of poison ivy. Well, the next day, he caught it. Badly. In very awful places.

Watching other people get hurt doing stupid stuff is gut-bustingly funny. When I was a teenager, my bud's little brother decided he was going to cross body-block me from atop his parent's bar and jumped into a ceiling fan. It spun him around and threw him into the wall. One of the funniest things I've ever seen in my life.

OW!

how injured was he?

ANother one:

I was coming back from an island near our place one day, which we have to catch a ferry for.

anyway, I was waiting on tyhe jetty, the kids on thios island are a buit feral. Anyway, a couple of these kids had a scooter and were riding it off the end of the jetty, for the first few times it went fine, then areound the thrird time the rider let go of the scooter after riding off it. Anyway, to cut a long story short, they lost the scooter (which looked fairly new) and the owner of teh scooter kid (the non rider/loser guy) was quite pissed off...it wouyld have been ibnteresting but the ferry pulled up and i didnt see what the kids did.

Had a bloody nose, but that was about it. We did far worse to him ourselves. He had a tire swing in his back yard. You know how if you spin the tire, the rope knots up the more you spin it? We knotted that rope up so far we could barely hold the tire and threw him through the middle and let go. After about 5 minutes, a circular stream of vomit came out of the kid, and we were laughing so hard we couldn't stop him from spinning. When we finally got him stopped, he was dry-heaving for the next 20 minutes. I swear, I think he walked in circles for a month.

Ha ha ha ha ha. Damn, some of these stories are funny.

Some people I know think I don't have a sense of humour, but I find irony and plays on words some of the funniest things around.

Just to add another tale to the mix: while I was on a scout camp a few years ago, we had two options for going across a river: a flying fox and a rope bridge. A few of us chose the rope bridge, but most opted for the flying fox. After crossing the river, the others who went across the bridge decided to go back and go on the flying fox anyway, while I spent time waiting for everyone to cross by crossing the bridge repeatedly. All of us fell at one time or another, but I was the only one to fall from the bridge (clumsy me), BUT, I landed on the riverbank and stayed dry. Everyone else was saturated from falling in the river when they finally turned up.

Oh, and I'm finally up to 1000 posts.
