I don't get it at all. How is it funny???? It's not witty or intelligent, its just a guy dancing around and then saying that's why I don't like cricket. The two subjects are completely unrelated - it's totally unreal. Perhaps a Delta member could shed some light on how it's funny?

[Mea]

Err.. no idea. I didn't find it funny at all.

[meatburger]

Hehe you seem to be interested in deltas. Thats cool i respect that

I agree with you that its not witty or intelligent. Its obviously just stupid humour. I didn't find it laugh out loud funny i just found it humorous. Was just the way that he was dancing and wasn't self conscious at all. Letting out his silly side. His dancing style was so unfashionable.

[Mea]

It was humourous? lol.
I dunno. I couldn't even concentrate watching the clip. It doesn't make any sense.

Only mildly humorous

Things that dont make sense can be extremely funny i think.

That is SO random you posted that bananas for hands video. I've always thought it was hillarious! I rememer when I found that, I watched it like 5 times. I just can't get enought of it. It's probably dirty if you overthink it, so I try to not think about the meaning.

Haha yeah it used to be a bit of a joke between my group of friends. I like the part where he goes "5 fingers, oont some hair". My ENTj friend said "oont some hair" about 20 times a day after that.

It's even funnier to imagine an ENTJ finding that funny/saying "oont some hair." The ENTJs I know are very serious and don't usually admit to finding things like that funny.

I also like when they're afraid of the monkeys and the monkeys are doing that snapping thing like in A Westside Story. "we are da monkeys (snap, snap)"

Yeah i dont know, i do suspect hes a little different to most ENTj's lol. The few ive met do seem to have a good sense of humour though.

This guy seems to have a strange humour sometimes similar to mine. He seems to love it when people make mistakes with things they say etc. He used to sit on my computer and just say random things. Then when i did it he would pick a part of what i said and repeat it like 100 times. "and" "and" and" and" "dog". He found it hillarious. One night he had us all say something like "Smelly Arse" then he rewound it to see what it sounded like. And its like Sayalems or something. Then he was asking people to say Sayalems. Finally he reversed again and cut them all together to make a reverse smellyarse remix. :wink:

[Creepy-bg]

the original clip was humorous for the homoerotic aspect... not lol or anything even close but mildly amusing

[jewels]

hitman, which do you think are which? do you think the main guy is istp and the blonde girl is enfp? I didn't notice any in particular so I'm curious what you thought.

That made no sense what so ever....and it wasn't humorus at all....and I find stupid stuff funny! I also noticed that the guy watching made the same eye movment every time the camera showed his face...it was like watching an anime that loves to repeat the same set of animated graphics over and over again....

British humor in general seems Delta to me.

[Ritella]

yes. though monty python is practically the prototype of alpha humor, IMO

I agree. I love monty python but it can get old after awhile.

I thought it was pretty funny. and yeah, delta.

Who shot ya?

One of us would have to write a song about you, Mune...

lol

Agree on the Monty too.

Though my question is: How is the original video delta humor? What are we talking about when we say that? I mean it's not just that I don't find that particular thing funny, but I've been fervently searching for some kind of underlying premise or whatever springs from the delta fountain that I'd even remotely be entertained by. Is it because of the guy personally? Is it just messing with total strangers in a public place? If it happened in my vicinity I'd probably smile to myself because it's clearly a gag, but my response to it is pretty overwhelmingly meh. Not saying those of you who enjoyed it have a shit sense of humor or it's objectively unfunny, but it doesn't really do anything for me at all.

[somavision]

I love this guy, absolutely hilarious...the phone stuff always cracks me up, actually all of his stuff does.
My guess is he's ENFp, but not sure.
I think this is a pretty insightful interview, if anyones got any thoughts.

I didn't laugh, not even once. And it's boring to see the same joke over and over again.

There is no such thing as Delta humor. We are super serious. Srsly.

[Rick]

I agree.

SLI humor: go to zoo, see tortoises having sex. Go home, search for "tortoise sex" on Youtube, show it to someone and laugh.

[tereg]

Does anyone remember when Jim Carrey did this?



So, so awesome.

oh my god. i LOVE him

Well, I laugh when other people say or do funny things. I think my dual cousin and I were laughing about well talks about this one other person's sexual preferences. Otherwise, when we don't have work and serious things on our minds, we can spend the whole day at a museum and comment on the various things about certain periods of art; I said something very innocent once about a certain style of jewelry being invented in egypt saying "look you didn't come up with that idea!." She starts laughing. Usually our humor is over quite innocent and out of place things. Or we'll say, "that style is due back." Things come out with a certain sense of fun as they are happening.

[Absurd]

Ssmall is right. I don't think there's such thing as humour, actually. It's pretty subjective.

The Most Important Tool in the Shop
By Vance Burns

By far, the finest work is done with the best tools, and the best tool in the workshop is a happy spouse. The spousal tool facilitates all future tool purchases and is the standard by which all other tool acquisitions (or the possibility thereof) are measured.

Though the spousal tool can be a complex and quirky device, one thing it surely ppreciates is sharp tools of its own. This is a, if not the, sure path to making the spouse tool one of the most satisfying with which to interact, often resulting in many culinary side benefits. It’s a matter of geometry...

Very funny Numbers.

Do you know if Winterpark agrees with the profile that SLIs are masters with tools and daredevil stuff?

I am fairly handy with tools, and can create one with a paperclip in a pinch, but the daredevil stuff is not me.

By the way, Amazon is offering cell phones for .01 with a 2 year plan. Is that a deal? And what should I get that would maximize my cheap side? My ideal cell phone would be pay-as-you-call. I don't make many calls. Internet would be nice though.

I'm hoping we can take a break from the drama for a bit What has made you laugh recently?

This always makes me laugh:

Now, this might lead to more drama, but, I find this funny. It was on my playlist for funny clips.

thanks to tereg...

[Minde]

I tend to like dry, subtle, clever humor. I'll see if I can find some examples.

Edit: Well, not always subtle. Sometimes not-so-subtle is funny, too.
