Just thought I'd ask what the funniest thing you've ever seen is. Here's mine: I went to see 36 Crazyfists in Liverpool, and there was some crap band opening called Chariots of Fire or something along those lines. Well the lead singer of this band was big, which I wouldn't make a thing of, but none of his clothes fitted him. They were far too tight. But anyway come up to the last song or so, he jumps onto the speaker right in front of me and then jumps into the crowd. EVERYBODY jumped out of the way and he landed face first into the floor. As soon as he got up he looked so out of it, but everyone was laughing at him so much that he tried to start a fight with a huge load of people. This got so out of control the bassist had to jump in and try and save him but they got surrounded and everyone started a mosh pit with them. In the end they found a way out and ran off the stage. Was just so funny to watch and it all happened so quickly.
I once watched a mosh pit (I was taking a break at the time) at Sonisphere... a girl just ran in screaming ready to join in and everyone just stopped, probably because they were afraid they'd hurt her
At work there's a girl with Asperger's. Now, I try not to make fun of people who legitimately can't help themselves, but there are limitations. One such limitation was a couple months ago... She is always very odd and has a hard time grasping social situations, which is to be expected, but this time it went a little farther than normal. While managing to make an analogy promoting the superiority of women using Star Trek characters, she managed to provoke our boss just a little bit too much. He came walking in with a stare that would freeze Hell and says: "You're fired." and walked away. And the best part is, she starts crying and packs up, but while she's walking out the door he says "It's only 1pm. You going to be taking leave for the last three hours?". That's where I just burst out laughing like I never had before. The look on her face was one of such complete devasation that I couldn't help it. Of course, the boss was just kidding. He plays rough and she isn't socially skilled enough to know what's serious or not so all of her reactions were completely honest (and completely hilarious).
You say that with half the story! She may not understand sarcasm or situational humor, but she's no saint! More than capable making some good jabs of her own
Every time I drive through the ghetto/black part of town. I laugh a little inside. I saw a Ford mustang all riced out with body mods, spinners, jacked up... Looked cool and all, but a mustang? Really? I just love seeing ghetto cars, and those people wonder why they can't afford to live in a "nice" home. Ok end of my rant/logic
I don't think they wonder... I think they use the logic that "more people see my car than my house, so I will make it look as retarded as possible so everyone knows how big of a douche I am." ...wait, that's just what I think of them... they are douches.
Probably not the funniest thing I've ever seen, but watching my son chomping enthusiastically down on a peeled lemon for the first time, and the resulting facial expressions was pure grade A hilarity. Sadly I did not have my camcorder handy for this event, but I may do it again.
I have a friend who's overweight and we we're joking around with a few other friends and he was pretending to do Shoryukens and Hadoukens. So he does a few of each without any trouble and then he starts off a Hadouken, steps backwards while doing the twirl and trips over an edge of the concrete slabbed floor and falls flat on his backside. I have no idea why it was so funny but we all were laughing for 5 minutes afterwards.
In my Numerical Methods class our professor was asking us if there was anyone not in Mechanical or Aerospace engineering in the class and what major they were. One kid raises his hand and says: "I think I am in the wrong class, I am a Food Resources Economics major although this seems a hell of a lot more interesting than what I have been learning"
