Laughing at inappropiate things

I was just thinking...a good "funny death" would be a situation where someone gets the classic pie in the face....then they fall over dead, as it's later found that the pie had cyanide or arsenic or some other poison in it. Turns out the clown that did it was a homicidal clown..the Silly Serial Killer, if you will. There have been lots of creative serial killers in history....why has no one used a cartoon theme? It would be quite entertaining... it even promted me to draw what said clown might look like. The cartoon is coming soon!

Anyway, that's the random thought that sparked this post....things we aren't supposed to laugh at. There's something I just don't like about the whole situation of pretending something isn't completely hilarious. For instance...you know good and damn well that the visual of someone falling down some stairs is a laugh riot. It's only "not funny" when it's happening to you, of course....or someone you actually care about. When I was a kid, the visual of someone falling always cracked me up, even if it was family...I didn't care, that shit was funny...especially if they were in the middle of talking before they fell. Dudes getting kicked in the balls... that always gets me too.


Chicks getting hit in the face. Though I would never physically hit a woman, unless she was trying to cut off my balls, the sight of one getting the dog shit punched out of her always leaves me in tears!
I remember when I was in high school I saw some couple having some dispute and all that crap when suddenly the chick lunges at him with a fucking knife. Dude reared back and punched her full force square in the nose! He had obviously broken it because you could hear the snapping sound a block away!
That wasn't the funniest part though, the funniest part was when she just stood there looking at the blood streaming out of her nose and then looks at him in shock and gives him that "I can't believe you hit me, I'm a girl" look! The she just sits down with the same shocked look on her face!
I guess I think that sort of thing is funny because you never expect it and in this case the man was completely justified, knocking her block off.

Domestic violence in general makes me laugh, too as long as it's not happening to anyone I care about. I never get sick of seeing domestic dispute number 34985098750033 on COPS. It always reminds you why they call those white tank-tops wife beaters.
I just love the way the dumbasses keep fighting like the cops aren't even there and it usually ends up with the dude getting dog piled or tazered which sends me into convulsions from laughing so damn hard. It's even funnier when the meth head loud mouth chick gets tasered and she's flipping and flopping and screaming like a fraggin' banshee. Yeah, she doesn't look so tough now with 50,000 volts going through her!



Rescue 911...that show was a gold mine of comedic chaos...
-the kid that blew his hand up with an m80. (I have it on tape somewhere)
-the girl that fell off a step ladder, and busted her arms on a window.
-a kid jumped in front of his grandma's lawnmower at the last second and tried to jump back....haha..he didn't jump away in time.
-Legendary: this one kid and his friends playing with fire. Kid brings out the gasoline...and begins to pour it on the smoldering area. The other kids' can sense this is about to go horribly wrong...and you see them slowly backing away...kid pours one little bit, *WHOOSH* dude instantly looks like the human torch. I was seriously in tears from laughing at this.

-there was another kid that went up in flames up in a treehouse. He uttered these great last words before the screaming began: "...hey my back feels warm..." Ah, the memories...if they put out Rescue 911 on dvd collections, I'd buy all seasons immediately.

  1. One time I passed a man in a wheel chair hustling down the street on a rainy day. I did 2 U-turns and then splashed him hard with the nasty water on the side of the road. Everybody in my car pretended to be shocked, but I know they were laughing inside.

  2. Worst thing ever that I still feel guilty about to this day. I was in the supermarket with my girlfriend at the time and the guy in front of us at the checkout only had one hand. My girlfriend starts making these one hand jokes and laughing out loud, so naturally I could only hold it in for so long and I start laughing as well. The guy turns around and gives us the dirtiest fucking look I have ever seen. I still wish I could apologize to the guy, but at the same time I laugh when I tell the story.
