I'm guessing you find someone slipping on a banana skin hilarious?

Depends.

Are they fat, and has ITV hilariously added comedy sound effects?

Lee Evans.

Where do the Marx brothers fit in to this - they're funny.

Less funny, however - Karl Marx....

Yes, he was their Stuart Sutcliffe - the fifth Marx.

I don't find Dawn French funny, but then again, I don't find anything that Lenny Henry has been in funny.

Well I got that gag even if nobody else did.

"Anything to declare, Osc ?"

"Nothing but my genius"

Why is it silly? Comedians try to be funny, trying to be funny isn't funny, therefore comedians are not funny.

So the most insightful modern philosopher the world has ever produced, who also happened to be a comic, the legendary Bill Hicks wasn't funny?

Nor was

Lenny Bruce
Richard Pryor
Billy Connolly
Bill Bailey

And many many many others?

I'm guessing you find someone slipping on a banana skin hilarious?

No none of them were. And slipping on a banana skin isn't funny either.

Sarah Silverman

Oh, I don't agree with that. The Sarah Silverman show is hilarious, and pushes boundaries. She's quite cute, too.

[jesta1865]

Stewart Lee, never been funny, just sounds like the pseudo intellectual that we all know that uses big words to sound intelligent and isn't.

and Omid Djili blows hot and cold, the sketch the other night about recycling was funny, the henry viii just wasn't.

was funny in mean machine though

So what does make you laugh then?

Oh dear.

May I ask what, if anything, you do find funny?

I got bored of him, then went to see him at the O2, changed my mind he is amusing.
But - Bohemian Rhapsody... just not funny at all, no matter how many times he does it.

[nelly1]

Pretty much anything Peter Kay or Ricky Gervais had anything to do with...

[Tiggsy]

nothing more narrow minded than saying a comedian is "not funny"...the very fact they are on TV means that many others disagree. You can say "i dont fnd them funny" or "i don't know why others find them funny, i hate em" but simply "they aren't funny" is ridiculous. It's the sort of retarded thinking that has the Daily Mails forum full of people demanding Ross is dumped from the Beeb because he showed up to the BAFTAs!

Even worse though is people who demand EVERYONE regard their favorite as funny no matter what - the sort of thinking normally reserved for Bill Hicks and similar (who i like, but can quite easily see why others may prefer Dawn French)
