It's a downright disgrace
Long as I got you by my side
I don't care what your people say

Mechanism and function of humor identified by new evolutionary theory

Mon, 30 Jun 2008 21:24:01 GMT

clipper's remarks: "By removing stipulations of content we have been forced to study the structures underlying any instance of humour, and it has become clear that it is not the content of the stimulus but the patterns underlying it that provide the potential for sources of humour. For patterns to exist it is necessary to have some form of content, but once that content exists, it is the level of the pattern at which humour operates and for which it delivers its rewards."

Previous theories have only ever applied to a small proportion of all instances of humour, many of them stipulating necessary content or social conditions either in the humour itself or around the individual experiencing it. But this doesn't explain why an individual can laugh at something when no one else around them does, nor why two people can laugh at the same stimulus for different reasons.

A new publication answers centuries' old questions regarding the mechanism and function of humour, identifying the reason humour is common to all human societies, its fundamental role in the evolution of homo sapiens and its continuing importance in the cognitive development of infants.

"The theory is an evolutionary and cognitive explanation of how and why any individual finds anything funny. Effectively it explains that humour occurs when the brain recognizes a pattern that surprises it, and that recognition of this sort is rewarded with the experience of the humorous response, an element of which is broadcast as laughter.

Funny one line jokes

People who complain about the way the ball bounces usually dropped it.

People who love sausage and respect the law should never watch either of them being made.

People who think they know everything upset those of us who do.

People will accept your idea much more readily if you tell them Benjamin Franklin said it first.

People will believe anything if you whisper it.

People will buy anything that is one-to-a-customer.

People with narrow minds usually have broad tongues.

Perfection is achieved only on the point of collapse.

Performance is directly affected by the perversity of inanimate objects.

Perhaps your whole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.

Work Smarter, Not Harder

Posted in Crime by Greg Ross on November 5th, 2007

On Dec. 10, 1968, a uniformed man pulled over a bank car in Tokyo. He explained that police had received a warning that dynamite had been planted in the vehicle, which was transporting bonuses for local Toshiba employees. The four passengers got out and watched as the officer crawled underneath.

After a moment he rolled out, shouting that the car was about to explode. When the passengers ran, he got in and drove off.

Thus one man stole 294,307,500 yen in broad daylight, working alone and without harming anyone. It remains the largest single heist in Japanese history. The thief was never caught.

clipper's remarks: Who says animal's don't have a sense of humor. Looks like a lot of people who used to wish they had a camera have got one now. Now we can all get to see what was so funny. It's also amazing the things they can get up to when they don't think there's anyone watching. A bit like people.

this is why your server is cranky

exhibit a) submitted by an anonymous bystander at a pittsburgh lunch counter:

exhibit b) submitted by patrick in kansas city, mo, who explains: “my friends chris and katie had a rude waitress a few weeks ago. in order to tell the waitress that there was indeed a reason she wasn’t getting a tip, chris left this little note where the tip would ordinarily go.”

though i can certainly empathize, as a former food service industry worker i just can’t condone not leaving a tip. (i’m guessing there are a lot of you, however, who’d disagree.)

Chaser's 'war on everything' Kevin Rudd Election commercial

Thu, 01 Nov 2007 06:29:51 GMT

clipped by: pokkets
clipper's remarks: This is a generic Election commercial, that can be adapted to suit any politician's style, or personal habits for Australian elections soon. Comedians have the politicians in their sites. Any similarity between 'The Chasers,' and anything that should be taken seriously, is purely co-incidental

What would you like to read in the Newspaper?

The Spectator once ran a competition asking its readers "What would you most like to read on opening the morning paper?" One reader submitted this entry:

Our Second Competition

The First Prize in the second of this year's competitions goes to Mr. Arthur Robinson, whose witty entry was easily the best of those we received. His choice of what he would like to read on opening his paper was headed, 'Our Second Competition,' and was as follows: 'The First Prize in the second of this year's competitions goes to Mr. Arthur Robinson, whose witty entry was easily the best of those we received. His choice of what he would like to read on opening his paper was headed "Our Second Competition," but owing to paper restrictions we cannot print all of it.'
