I can now only recall a few things from the time I was a kid until now that had me literally on the floor laughing 15 - 20 minutes straight, making my ribs sore :

1) When I first watched episodes of The 3 Stooges. At least 20-30 minutes non-stop laughing, my stomach was always sore after watching these chaps.

2) The skits of The Carol Burnett show.

I was eating dinner with pops , and fell out my chair, and was under the table for at least 10 minutes laughing, just off one skit and I think it was the skit when they made fun of T.V. commercials, especially the Bing Crosby orange juice one.

3) Warner Brothers cartoon classics like Bugs Bunny and Wild E. Coyote kickin someones ass.

4) Dumb and Dumber, I think

5) The opening scene to The Marathon Man, starring Dustin Hoffman, the two New Yawkers getting into it yelling at each other because dudes car stalls in the street, blocking it and he could'nt get it started for a while.

Classic just for that scene alone and an exclamation point of everything New York and attitudes there.

I paused the video and was on the floor for, I kid you not, literally 20 minutes, and I think I'm being conservative of that number.

Dude got up in dudes back-side with not ONE, single shred and ounce of mercy.LOL

    Well it takes a lot to make me laugh and in fact 99% of what they call comedy is not just not funny - it stinks.

    However there are two people that can make me LMAO - even just by their facial expressions it will set me off - that is Jim Carey and Whoopie Goldberg. Almost anything they say will make me laugh.

    In particular Jim Carey with his Fireman Bob thing he used to do on 'In Living Color'.

    Notable mention also on 'In Living Color' would be Jamie Foxx as the horrendously ugly Wanda the very forward masseuse.

    I used to like Laurel and Hardy but can's say I ever rolled around holding my sides in.

    Also some of Lucille Ball's stuff like her Vitamin commercial and the time she put too much yeast in her home made bread and it was like the blob from hell coming out of her oven. I think of her whenever I do something completely stupid when I am cooking, like not standing over the sink when draining water out of boiled pasta.

    Yeh - I guess there are some really funny people after all, but they are few and far between - an elastic face helps a lot.

      Yeah, I forgot about Laurel and Hardy, those guys had me on the floor for awhile.

      "I Love Lucy" episodes are always good and a few of them had me holding my stomach.

      Whoopi Goldberg?!?!? Funny???

      She started, I think, as a stand-up, but wow, I don't really see how she made it as comedian from the start......, some of her 80's movies were ok to see, ONCE, but making me laugh, hardly.

      But most women or the average woman don't seem to have the sense of humor men have, they mostly seem to have a very select or very limited view of whats funny, seems to me, if they find ANYTHING funny at all, and I'm not just talking gross humor either.

      Come to think of it, only recently has there been any surge of numbers of women stand-up comedians that are ACTUALLY funny.

      From way back then until now, most women's comedy strength was in skits like Lucille Ball and Carol Burnett, not stand-up.

      Few exceptions like Phyllis Diller or Joan Rivers were damn good at stand-up.

      A parrot so horny, he would risk it with a total stranger and species to get going.

      If he knew this species created Kentucky Fried Chicken, he would fly as fast as he could and go hump a tree or something.

      Shows you fellas going to do what they got to do.

        Oh my god, here's another one.

        I was at a funeral with the family, and everyone is so solemn , blank looks on our face trying to be reflective, quaint and quiet as it being a sad occasion.....

        .......then me, my mother and one of my sisters looked over at my small brother, and he was sitting there with the most intense, quiet, restrained , sneaky snickering I have ever seen, I mean he was totally flush red with veins coming out of his face, head and neck...., dude was simply staring straight at the pew, eyes locked straight ahead in one direction using every ounce of might to constrain himself, he was literally sweating in exhaustion from trying to avoid an outburst, that was clearly evident.

        My mother looked at him and would normally smack him, but even SHE saw he simply lost it, he was gone, place of no return , he was like that for 12 minutes straight, and it got infectious because we started to lose it.

        And the more we tried to control the quiet snickering and kept looking at him, the worse it got.

        I still laugh to this day when I think about his face, him losing it like some guy in the middle of a war who just snaps.
