For some strange reason “I burning your dog” had me chuckling all day yesterday.
Anyone want to help Herge with the link to the original 1920s style death rays?
The gag began after Dogface’s infamous triple post on the linked page of this thread.
Calvin pounding nails into the coffee table. Mom says “Calvin! What are you doing?!?” Calvin looks at the table, looks at mom and says “Is this a trick question?”
Calvin: “I wish I was a tiger.”
Hobbes: “A common lament.”
etc.

As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly.
When my dog flaps his ears.
No, seriously, pull my finger.
He he, we have that here in England also, Cervaise.
The hysterical laughter fit by Tom Hanks in “The Money Pit” after the bathtub falls through the floor.
I’ve seen that movie at least five hundred times, and during that scene I laugh until I can’t breathe every single time.
SNL - Bassamatic I just about bust a gut every time, even now 27 years later.
Steve Martin - How to be a millionaire and never pay taxes. I almost wrecked the car the first time I heard that one.
Young Frankenstein - Puttin on the Ritz
Beyond the Fringe - One legged Tarzan Audition
To name but a few not already mentioned.
Oh, and another vote for The Jerk
I just happened to be listening to “Taking Retards To The Zoo” by the Dead Milkmen. I know its wrong, but even after all these years, it still makes me laugh.

Hehehee…yeah! YEAH!!! That rocks! ehehehe…yeah!
As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly.
Les Nessman getting ready for a date to the song “Hot Blooded”
Yes, I’m the greatest mono-thingy guy there ever was
Eddie Izzard–no matter how many times I watch his stand-up, he still cracks me up to the point of wheezing and crying.
Calvin and Hobbes
The Far Side
Christmas Story “I can’t put my arrrms down!” I swear, I think I could watch that movie all 24 times during the 24 hour marathon around Christmas on TNT.
Bill Cosby “Himself”
Almost any classic Cartman moment from South Park “No, Starving Marvin that’s MY potpie!”
Bill Bryson “A Walk in the Woods”
That stupid scene in “Dumb and Dumber” about the legless parakeet
The old thread here on the Dope about waking up with arms or legs still asleep nearly made me pass out laughing the first time I read it and still does.
My fave is this one:
Grog, got some mammoth on face. (Grog has a huge mammoth tusk stuck to his cheek)
This is my absolute favorite.
“Throw away” gags involving human skeletons.
I read once that a lot of ancient Greek plays would try and work in a scene of bald guys slapping each other, because it would always get a laugh. I don’t know if it’s true or not, I can’t even remember where I heard it.
Whenever I watch any Monty Python, I can’t help myself. It’s friggin’ FUNNY! There is one scene in particular in “The Holy Grail” that makes me laugh my ass off and I don’t know why. It’s not meant to be funny, this one little part… maybe. Happy accident or creative genius? You decide.
It’s when the main knights are about to go to Camelot and the knights inside are singing and dancing on the tabletops, there are chickens flying around all upset. One chicken gets stepped on. This one, lone chicken getting munched underfoot just cracks me up every damn time!
You have to know me to understand. I seriously hate large birds! I also laugh at anyone who trips and falls down, even my SO (love you, babe… sorry).
And I just love “The Rutles”. “I’m shocked… (thoughtful pause)and stunned.”
I stopped watching South Park years ago but it was shockingly funny in it’s heyday.
“Young Frankenstein” - classic funny!
Eddie Izzard is hilarious, I agree with Greywolf73. Alas, I’ve not seen him in awhile. sigh
If I posted all these things that were old but still hilarious, it’d never end! Let me go to bed, darn it!
