I find it's only funny if you deliberately hurt someone by accident.

I find a lot of slapstick funny. I find the Three Stooges funny. But I find a lot of British humor funnier than slapstick---for example: Monty Python, Are You Being Served?, Keeping Up Appearances, Bean, and the Vicar of Dibley.

Even as a kid, I have never understood slapstick humor. Just don't get it.

Old School slapstick - yes.
modern slapstick - no.

slapstick is funny only because of the exaggerated gestures and sound fx. especially because of the sound fx.

I'm a big fan of slapstick humor, in fact, I spent all day today watching Abbott & Costello movies.

I'm not sure why I find it funny, I just do.

Lace-Bane used to enjoy Happy Tree Friends... although the slapping sticks usually decapitate in that show .

Lace-Bane isn't sure if that cartoon counts though . He's never found stuff like the three stooges funny... It doesn't make sense and it's not morbid enough to make Lace-Bane laugh
