Hmmm...toss up between "dirt nap with baby jesus" and the scene in family guy when Peter reminisces with Lois' fater about that time he tried Ectascy.

Peter: "Oh...oh Brian. you're so soft....and so, oh you ears...ohhhhh"

Fits of laughter every time.

Actually, I cannot believe I forgot from Sportscenter on ESPN. There was a highlight that Kenny Mayne was supposed to report on and he could not pronounce the player's name and he even forgot the names of the teams playing. After he gave up getting it right he yells "Oh man! I really ate it on that highlight!" and ESPN aired it. Absolutely hiliarious. I wish I had that on tape. I remember waiting for the back to back rerun of that airing of Sportscenter just so I could watch it again.

Any episode of The Simpsons,The Kids In The Hall, or Monty Python.
Brian Candy, (Kids In The Hall) is one of the funniest movies EVER ! Oh, And any Old Steve Martin or Mel Brooks movie is also great for a laugh.

Lots of things have cracked me up over the years, but the best one lately was the scene in Dodgeball when the "coach" pulls out the bag of wrenches. That moment was priceless. I just knew what was coming next. It was a good thing we saw it on DVD because we had to pause it while we laughed.

Laughed till I cried:

Tom Hanks tripping/falling/wheelbarrowing down the hill in "The Money Pit". The flying turkey and crashing bathtub were also pretty good from that movie... I consider it a comedy classic but people seem to talk it down alot so YMMV.

Angel puppet episode

One of the Southparks - I can't remember the specific one, just thinking, "Wow! I'm laughing so hard I'm crying." I enjoy Southpark but usually not that much.

My favorite all time comedy is "Big Trouble in Little China" with Kurt Russell and Kim Catrell - god, we were all so much younger then...
Specific line that made me cry: "...or little basketcase on wheels..."

Think I'll throw that in the DVD player right now - could use a laugh...

Oh, that's a toughy:

Saw Brain Candy mentioned here. That movie had me in stitches :) Let's see...

Family Guy: can't remember which episodes, but there's been two times I remember with an extended fight scene between Peter and a guy in a chicken costume. That always gets me.

Bong Water, with Luke Wilson. Jack Black just about killed me in that movie. Especially the scene where he's tromping through the forest like a deranged wood elf on 'shrooms.

And of course, Firefly. Jaynestown and OMR of course, and I always liked the scene at the end of War Stories. "This is something the Captain has to do himself." "No it's not!" "Oh.." :)

I love those fights between Peter and the Chicken guy! I also forgot about the Family Guy episode where Peter had a tab at the drugstore so he brought home some kind of vomit enducing medicine, and the family got into a contest on who could hold out from throwing up the longest. CLASSIC!!!!

That is pretty funny. I also liked the really bad doorbell.

I agree. Underrated movie. I always loved the part when the good guys are in the sewers and that monster jumps out of the hole in the wall and that guy uses the flashy gem to kill it and says "It will come out no more." and Kurt Russell's character completely freaks out "What?! Huh?! What will come out no more?!" Or the knife getting stuck in his boot during the end battle scene? Or the lipstick? Or shooting the gun into the ceiling and getting knocked out by the falling plaster?

The "ninja crab" from Finding Nemo . I think I laughed for a solid five minutes after that one...kids in the theatre were looking at me oddly. My wife can still crack me up by doing an impression of that.

Of course, from the BDM, the whole "You wanna be Captain?" segment got me.

Many, many others, but it is quite easy to get me to laugh.

One day.
One mission.
One army of Browncoats.

This was in 3rd Rock From the Sun:

The funniest thing I have ever seen on TV is, hands down, when William Shatner tells John Lithgow that he saw something on the wing of the plane and John Lithgow yells, "So did I!!" I literally fell of the couch and then called my mother to see if she had seen it. (Please tell me you all know that both of them played the same character in the Outer Limits classic!!)

In movies: Everything in Monty Pythyon and the Holy Grail, Dodgeball, Without a Paddle and Animal House.

And, of course, "TRAP!" by our captain in the Serenity outtakes.

Mal-licious

I'm going to add cursing and the hurling about of things to my repertoire.
