This was a comedy of error by idiots doing more idiotic things. Watching stupid people being stupid doesn't translate to comedy to my tastes.

Crazy 9.5 Fingers wrote:Comedy is an art form, therefore it is subjective. If it makes you laugh, then it's funny, if it doesn't make you laugh, then you didn't find it funny. I have a few friends who are comics, one has actually "made it" and others are now regular job people. I have always said that being a stand up comic is the toughest job out there in the arts by far.You hit on something, 9.5. Comics are usually more intelligent people.
