I think we laugh at people or things for different reasons sam. I think when laugh it is because of the of pain, weither emotional, or physical that other people are experiening, a kind of "It's not me, so it's funny." principle. We laugh at the great Fudd because he had a gun blow up in his face, that hurts, he's a bad guy, (we want to see him fail) and he's comical, (which seperates him from us, and people like us). People also laugh at iorny. His gun ended up hurting him, instead of hurting Bugs.

Counterpoint.

yes, all true.
but i'm trying to emphasize the point that comedy and humor are society's ultimate optimism. we laugh because we think "at least it's not me" in a way. this is a speach that i wrote about optimism.
but you are completely right.
but why do we think that irony is funny?
