What do we consider to be Humor?



According to the on-line edition of the Merriam-Webster dictionary, Humor is:
 
a : that quality which appeals to a sense of the ludicrous or absurdly incongruous
b : the mental faculty of discovering, expressing, or appreciating the ludicrous or absurdly incongruous
c : something that is or is designed to be comical or amusing
 
Subsequently, their definition of 'Funny' is:
 
a : that quality which appeals to a sense of the ludicrous or absurdly incongruous
b : the mental faculty of discovering, expressing, or appreciating the ludicrous or absurdly congruous
c : something that is or is designed to be comical or amusing
 
Well, what we've done is combine the two into one simple definition - 'something that makes you laugh or smile.' While this is a little broad, we feel that it encompasses all areas of what humor is, from the always classic Knock-Knock joke to an old episode of 'The Honeymooners' or 'Barney Miller'.
