    Hello K:

    I'd watch re-runs of Seinfeld.

    I'd be laughing at the doctor for suggesting that. And then I'd be laughing all the way to the bank after I sue his a$$.

    I would get another doctor. I would pay someone to break into his safe and steal all its contents, take my cut,  and pay a new doctor.  And laugh and laugh and laugh.

    as far as watching things ~

    watch "All in the Family"

    watch "Reno 911!"

    watch that laughing lady with the Chewbacca mask --  she still makes me laugh every time

    watch "I Love Lucy"

    watch "MadTV"

    watch "Angela Anaconda"

    watch "All That!"

    watch "The Middle"

    watch the movie "9 to 5"

    watch the movie "Airplane!"

    watch the 1937 Irene Dunne/Cary Grant movie "The Awful Truth"

    that'd at least be a start to a full recovery for me.

    :)

    I like this question, Kittigate.

    :)

    I try watching these things and I end up gasping in horror, worried if the people are OK. 

    :)

    I got to the 3:40 minutes-or-so mark and had to stop. That speeding-car-hitting-the-bus-and-the-bus-crashes-big was my limit.

    :)

    (and the ping-pong lady falling in to the cabinet concerned me)

    I'm hopeless.

    Except that first one is great with the boy-and-the-baby. And many others I smiled/laughed at in the brief amount of time I watched - -  but, hey, three-and-a-half minutes of watching - - pretty good for me in these types of clips!

    :)

    and the young male gymnastics guy flying in the air and landing badly, yikes ~ 

    Ha!

    :)

    I'd hope on the bus and go visit my buddy in Deep Bay then I'd ask him to do some Popeye imitations for me. There hilarious so I'd be cured in no time. Cheers and happy weekend

    hi there, "MARLA!" - - only here for a second - - but wanted to thank you for the input on that "Louie" guy in another question -- he has a TV comedy show I assume --  you said he was funny. The clip was funny in that answer. It was him and a woman going through an art gallery.

    :)

  • I agree about people getting hurt, but c'mon..the kid licking the freezing post.

    I look at it in phases like grief...

    Disbelief & Horror

    Worry about the person

    Amazement at the stupidity

    then...

    pure joy & amusment at seeing idiots doing things that they know will end up badly, but they do it anyways.

    so...we got a guy who is going to jum out of a plane at 25k feet with no parachute to land in a net soon.

    He's going to be a splash hit! LOL

    You make good points, my friend! Thanks! I think I will try to literally look at these clips with those stages in mind.

    Definitely you're right about the tongue-freezing-pole. Are there people who have still not seen "A Christmas Story" movie?

    :)

     

    And the person sliding down the side of the escalator.

    :)

     

    I will have to check out the article later; I must run off to work right now. The "Un-Parachuter" sounds like he will be in one of the clips possibly in the future.

    This sounds crazy- -  I just read the article really quickly --  it scares me actually --  according to the article, Aikens will be doing this in about three hours or so.

    Back to work ~
