I'm sorry, but does anyone else appreciate this kind of humor? Example in film: Napoleon Dynamite. Example in literature: Arms and the Man. I'm wondering if I'm the only loser that laughs at it. mellow.gif

I don't know why Napoleon Dynamite was a funny movie... heh. I thought it was a boring movie. The only thing I laughed was the part when he was just standing there like he's some stupid person or very hungry-ish looking. Anyways... people only laughed on the part when he acted soo geekish? I don't if that's true but when I was in the movie theater, people was laughing only cause of that.... cause he's a geek????? ehh yeah. I don't know if i do dislike dry humors but yeah i think i do dislike it hmm.

You mean slapstick, or physical comedy? tongue.gif And...yeah...if you think about it, dry humor takes a lot of wit and intelligence to come up with what they do.
