The Scream Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 (edited) Eddie Izzard makes me laugh. Laugh out loud, laugh till it hurts, sometimes tears. The Onion makes me laugh, but in a different way. It's more of the constant, quiet laughing and amusement. Girl Moved To Tears By Of Mice And Men Cliffs Notes Chris Rock and Carlos Mencia make me laugh. But I sometimes find it an effort to sit through what are dud moments for me to get to the laughs. edited for typos Edited August 28, 2006 by The Scream 25 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Scream Posted August 28, 2006 Author Share Posted August 28, 2006 Dame Edna, too. Tracy Ullman, she's great. I don't find her hysterically funny like I do Izzard. Some people don't get him either. I think Gene Hackman, Tommy Lee Jones and Robert DeNiro are great at deadpan humor. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
