What makes you laugh over and over again even though you’ve heard or seen it a million times?
For me, and it’s not at all PC, I always laugh when they play the “Indian/Middle Eastern” music on Howard Stern. It’s “Up, Up and Away” (a cheesy Fifth Dimension song), which is in no way, shape or form “Indian/Middle Eastern” except that, on this recording, it’s played on a sitar. I think I’ve been laughing at this for more than a decade.
The Far Side. I got The Complete Far Side last week and even though I read the majority of them already they still make me laugh out loud.
“I once shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got in my pajamas, I don’t know” Always cracks me up. God bless the Marx Brothers.
Peter Sellers as Inspecter Clousou in the Pink Panther movies.
Old Mel Brooks movies:
Young Frankenstein, Blazing Saddles, History of the World Pt. 1*…
Monty Python movies.
Farts.
Oh, and closing italic tags with bold tags.
Kills me every time.
Beavis and Butthead impressions. And the annoyed look of folks who think it DOES get old.
I’ll see AmericanMaid and raise her one… the entire Marx Brothers movie Duck Soup.
That Cox cable commercial with the guy breaking up with the postal worker.
“That’s right, girl. Just move on.”
I laugh every time!
Christmas Vacation… Still see something new everytime…
Monty Python movies.
Danny Kaye- The Court Jester.
Only Fools and Horses - dropping the chandelier, Del falling through the bar.
Tommy Cooper - “A man walks into a bar. Ouch. It was an iron bar.”
Football in the groin!
Steve Martin as Cowboy Bob in Parenthood.
Children’s farts.
Women’s farts.
Horses that fart when you cinch up their saddle.
Anything with Peter Sellers in it.
South Park.
Jackass.
George Burns and Gracie Allen. They slay me every time. “Tell me about your brother, Gracie . . .”

The 2010 Year Old Man, with Mel Brooks and Carl Reiner. This may be the funniest recording I’ve ever heard. I just think Mel Brooks is a multiple genius. When he dies, so does a big chunk of funny.
“Absolutley Fabulous”, Patsy & Edina especially. Everytime they open their mouths I giggle.
