I’m sorry. I tried. I really tried. I know this disqualifies me from being a true “guy” but I can’t hide the truth anymore.
Tell me I’m not alone. Anyone.
But they just don’t make me laugh. I just can’t into the Three Stooges.
Hold me.

You disgrace!
You know what must be done. Hand over your membership card to the male race. We expect your fez back within a week, once you’ve taken it to the cleaners.
::sneers::
This probably won’t help, me not being a guy and all, but I have never understood the Three Stooges. I don’t think they’re remotely funny at all and have been of the opinion since I was a kid that you had to be kinda not-so-bright to appreciate them.
My son’s with me. He just doens’t get why they don’t get in trouble.
I’ll hold you anyway. {{{Euty}}}
It’s okay, Euty. Really, it is. The world needs more women!
[sub]You’re one of my dearest friends, and I’d do anything for you, but I swear I am NOT going to show you how to put in a tampon…[/sub]
You’re not alone, Euty! I hate 'em too, and I’m a guy. Dull, boring, pre-adolescent humor. Give me Marx Bros. anyday.
[sub]Then again, I’m gay…[/sub]
Hey, Euty, it takes balls to admit you don’t like the Three Stooges, so don’t question your manhood.
I never found them funny either, even as a kid - they were just an obstacle to be endured while waiting for the Little Rascals came on. I haven’t admitted this publicly in front of other males in years. But you’ve inspired me to feel ashamed no longer. Maybe we can start a support group or something.
OK, I’d better go start making thinly-veiled references to my penis in front of a bunch of women now to reaffirm my masculinity…
Make that “waiting for the Little Rascals to come on”. Jeez, this whole confession has me so flustered I can’t even conjugate a verb correctly.
I’m indifferent to the Stooges. I don’t think they’re hysterical, but I will watch if I happen to catch them on TV.
The one Stooge bit that I think is classic though:
“Niagra Falls! Slowly I turned…”
I think I’ve kinda grown out of them. They used to be funny…now I don’t even get a giggle from them.
Ah, well…
I’ve never been the guy-est guy anyway…

No, no, no! You need to teach the world to sing! MARS needs women!
I think it’s a ploy. I think he’s just trying to pull the whole Emotionally Mature, In-Touch-With-His-Feelings, “Yes, dear, you’re right–the Three Stooges aren’t really very funny, are they?”, Sensitive Guy bit in order to get more chicks.
[sub]Hey, man, uh, let us know if it works, okay?[/sub]
I never did like the Three Stooges either. I think they’re kinda stoopid.
::puts up manly, muscular fists:: Anyone got a problem with that?
Does it make me less of a woman that I can’t stand shoe shopping, and have never owned more than 5 pairs at a time?
Wow, I thought I was the only guy who didn’t really like the Stooges. I just don’t see whats so funny about them.

Konk! Punha goes down like a ton of bricks!

SLAP! SLAP! SLAP! mrvisible, woodstockbirdybird, and blur reel back…
<forking the fingers>
POKE! Euty grabs for his eyes, too late!
I am shocked, SHOCKED I tell you…
Yes. Yes it does.
There’s a problem with not liking the stooges? Not only don’t I like them, but I don’t know anyone who does. Rank right up there with the WWF if you ask me.
THANK YOU, Fugazi! With all apologies to hardygrrl and the rest of the SDMB wrasslin’ clique, I just don’t get it. And not the whole “it’s fixed” thing; I got past that when I was a teenager. It’s just not…interesting. Kind of boring, really.
Oh, and like Crunchy Frog, I’m lukewarm towards the Stooges myself. I occasionally find myself watching them, but I don’t actively seek them out.

The what …THree Stogies??? Isn’t that the really old black and white TV show, yeah it is. I think the history channel bought the rights to the show. Maybe they can fill their dead time with episodes of the three stogies
