You know, I have found that what I consider funny videos today are not what I would have appreciated as funny ten years ago. I just found new movies to laugh out loud at recently that back then I might have found amusing or worth a chuckle. Age is not the factor I point to here in deciding what is funny. What is funny is subjective, and depends upon the mindset, upbringing, and overall experiences of each group or individual, so how about we consider a variety of funny videos in hopes that each of us will agree with at least one offering on the funny videos list?
