Someone makes the mistake of mentioning that IMAO is supposed to be a funny site.
Oppo: “Funny how?”


I appreciate one reviewer’s description of this scene as “slapstick sadism.”
Joe Pesci based this scene on his own experience, ad-libbed it with Ray Liotta, and won an Oscar.

I thought the funniness was an accidental by product of our high level of intelligence.
Like an “emergent property?” Ha-ha-ha-ho-ho-he-he-ah-ah-um-um-um… Hmmmm.
(Kind of like your brain.)
The only person I’ve heard accuse me of being funny is myself, and I ain’t takin’ no lip from that clown!
By funny do you mean funny ha-ha…or funny peculiar?
In life, sometimes you’re the funner, and sometimes you’re the funnee…
Funny, an even deeper question on a Saturday morning is….
What is the relationship between ‘fun’ and ‘funny?’
Is “funny” fun? Is “fun” funny?
Well, that’s it for now. It’s been fun. I’ll think this over while I shop for WWIII.
Speaking of funny ad-lib, I heard about 80% of Bill Murray’s lines in Ghostbusters were ad-libbed. Well done!
