Ministry of Silly Links

A Counterstrike game where one guy is being a dick and won't let his buddy through the air-duct. It goes on for ten minutes, with the guy who's stuck making all sorts of threats and screaming. Funny if you like this kind of thing. Language advisory.

When the guy gets down to "seven health," from being shot at due to be being stuck in a vent, he drops the threats and insults and starts pleading.

Thanks to Matt.

More... The funniest stories of 2005, according to World Net Daily.

This one's a keeper, and one I'd never seen before. On some talk show where they're talking about sex with a handicapped person, the interviewer can't stop himself from laughing -- though he tries mightilly -- when a male guest with a high-pitched cartoonish voice speaks. As the article notes, you don't need a translator to get the funny.

H/t to Attack Machine.

Geez! I mean, the guy with the "funny" voice wasn't that funny. The interviewer was really unprofessional. Worse he was an a**hole, and his voice wasn't that masculine and deep either.

yes, but it's funny to see someone lose it.

Look, if you watch movie out-takes, sometimes someone just starts laughing and can't stop, partly because they know it's so important that they stop laughing. It's the fact that it's inappropriate that makes it almost impossible to stop.

Ace,

I dunno', I started to laugh right away, too.

But don't you think the host had met the guests prior to their being on-air?

Like, "Mr. Host, this is the funny-voiced guy," "Funny-voice guy, this is Mr. Host."

Just askin'.

Ace,

I watched it again.

No, it's not funny.

It's hilarious.

But not funny.

Definitely not.

Cruel?

Rude?

Totally imnappropriate.

Dismissal worthy?

Outrageous

Yup.

But not funny.

Imnappropriate.

loose shit.

The best part is that none of the guests, or even the high-pitched voice dude for a while, react. Gotta love the dutch. Hey, the host has lost his mind, pretend like you don't notice.

that was the strange thing to me. NONE of the audience reacts at all. I mean, you think a few would laugh at the guy not being able to control oneself.

The reaction of the host was honest though. He is truly taken by surprise by the high girly voice.

EoI, RWS,

I watched it again, this time with the sound turned down.

There are a few people in the audience who are trying not to laugh, but yes most appeat stoic.

But even with the sound off, it's pretty f'in hard not to laugh at the guy laughing.

Ace is correct on this one, once again.

This is from a comedy show from whatever its country of origin is. I forget where it's from but it made the rounds a few months ago.

It's well done, but fake.

Geez, I hope so.

Posted by: Emperor of Icecream on January 2, 2006 11:49 PM

Hmm, ya'll must be easily amused. Seems completely phony and that's is so obviously not the guy's real voice.

Posted by: on January 2, 2006 11:50 PM

...

Yes, I am easily amused.

Thank you.

I once got the uncontrollable giggles at a very serious meeting. I just could not stop laughing. Once the belly laugh starts, it is very hard to control.

I used to get the giggles in church. It was usually my siblings' fault.
