I don’t consider myself a funny person. I have a good sense of humor but I’m not a joke teller and my zings zag out more often than they connect. However, I don’t get offended by much and I think a few topics are typically funny which I’ll share with you today. More often than not, extremes are funny.

Pooping

everybody-poopsThere is a humor to poop that is undeniable. I don’t necessarily know why I find it hilarious but it’s the #1 go to humor joke to the every day man. Someone taking a dump when they aren’t supposed to is the genus of humor. If you’re shitting in any place that isn’t the toilet, there is a sense of taboo associated with it which is why it’s funny. It’s also disgusting which adds the grossness factor. For instance, if I was getting ready to roll a ball in bowling and crapped myself on the approach, people would laugh. I think it’s because your not supposed to do it which is why it’s always funny. Farting is the lesser humor but still always funny.

Death

Death_87e949_2975976There’s a reason becoming an hero is funny and it’s because there is no more extreme consequence than death. Wishing a disease on someone is low but wishing someone dead is bottom of the barrel. This is why it can be used as a joke more often than not. A few examples:

  • When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandpa did, in his sleep — not screaming, like the passengers in his car.
  • I bet the main reason the police keep people away from a plane crash is they don’t want anybody walking in and lying down in the crash stuff, then, when somebody comes up, act like they just woke up and go, “What was THAT?!”
  • Two Red Army soldiers in World War II, Jewish and Russian, are buddies. The Jewish soldier is very badly wounded.
    “Finish me off, Ivan; I cannot suffer anymore.”
    “I cannot do it, Abram: I am out of bullets.”
    “Then buy some from me.”

Little Kids Getting Hurt

It’s funny to laugh at someone who is not you. Especially when they are little.
