they seemed pretty damned funny when I was 9 years old......now they seem abusive and old

being turned off by the abusiveness of the three stooges is like protesting bugs bunny cartoons for violence. people are hysterical.<br>

Absolutely. Funny then; funny now (but Curly Joe, not so much)

I'm surprised they classified this as a difference between men and women and not USA vs UK/rest of the world. American humour consists of falling about, UK humour is punny or has a punchline twist in the tale. USAians (often) can't follow a joke that takes more than 30s to tell. Or, because of their "Fonix" spelling unskills, don't get the puns because, ...wel.. er, they just don't GET it.

thats a bit of a stereotypical/generalised view tbh

Three Stooges fun??

<P>I have to admit I never found them funny, which made me an outcast in their day. I just never did get it. But the article is totally useless and doesn't even answer the question posed in the headline.</P> <P> </P> <P>Len</P>

Bugs Bunny is still funny Jess...and for every style of comedy, you will find a counterpart on each side of the pond....
