Tried going back again to see if I could find the humor without falling asleep this time, but they obviously keep changing the video clips since the one I was watching yesterday was not the one that started playing today.

I watch the Daily Show every night and it is funny! I received so many texts and phone calls from friends and family about the 'Romney' episode (most of them have been here and know this is an active community).

I was wrong. I was wrong. I was wrong.

I have had the oral surgery now and I don't feel so crabby.

Did I say I was wrong? It is beginning to be a little bit funny.

No right or wrong! Different things in life make us laugh...just as long as we laugh! Why don't cannibals eat clowns? Have a great day Gracie!

When you say "different things in life make us laugh" you weren't just whistling Dixie! I finally found the episode and got to see it in it's entirety, and I can honestly say it didn't make me chuckle even once, not even in my mind! I found it to be dull and no where near being as fair and balanced as has been suggested in a previous post; a little perhaps in a token way, but not much. However, I can understand that others find humor in it especially when I've seen people laugh on America's Funniest Home Videos at such clips as a toddler who has mucus flowing out of their nose or other clips that have equally grossed me out. I remember years ago hearing someone (a comedian I think/hope) say something like this... 'I find no humor in the thought of my dying, but the thought of your dying is a different matter!' Anyway, at least I didn't nearly fall asleep this time.

BTW, cannibals don't eat clowns because they can't digest the humor!

John Stewart caters to a young, hip audience with a sense of humor.

Oh I think us older curmudgeons with a sense of humor can enjoy Jon Stewart too. I especially like him when he appears on the Factor!

I am young, I am hip and I have a great sense of humor, and I think John Stewart is funny too!

Cannibals don't eat clowns because they taste funny!

I'm in my 70s and young at heart and watch him regularly. I especially love it when he goes into his rather frequent Elephant bashing routines which I'm sure is in large part what the multitudes of Villagers don't find a bit funny.

Hey GG, I never ever disagree with you, ever. And I'm a girl. But, um, I thought those two lines in particular were .
