A few things/people that I find funny:
- The idea of combining the desire to entertain with the infliction of self-damage: Jackass & their copyist hordes.
- A number of stand-up comedians: Eddie Izzard & his hilarious stream of consciousness improvisations; Simon Amstell & his biting sarcasm; Bill Hicks' anti-establishment ranting; & Billy Connoly's sheer lust for life humour.
- Fresh & unusual TV shows: Despite its' age, Monty Python's Flying Circus; Also despite its' age, Fawlty Towers; Sacha Baron Cohen's various uber-cringe-making shows; Rick Gervais' ditto (Watching the Extras Xmas special last night triggered this thread).
- Quick wit: friends' rapid & side-splitting responses. My mate is very gifted in this department, & Oh how we laugh !!
