Here’s a confession. I will watch anything funny. I mean anything. There is an extra gene woven in me to seek for humor. But it’s the silly humor that needs to be consumed in small dozes. The TBS (Dept. of Humor Analysis) site falls in that silly category. But the multimedia really raises the bar for goofiness.

Right from the word go, there are crazy pop ups and surveys making you explore more. Creating funny faces by adding weird breads to it may be juvenile, but the flash tools and colors are worth making the trip. For a few laughs, the Take A Survey section enables you to upload a picture and fool around adding crazy elements.

The Table of Periodic Laughter section has A to Z funny sounds. Just click on your ten best and form a composition of funny noises. The Movie Maker provides the same option of selecting a video and background score with a variety to sound effects (naturally silly ones) you can drag to the track list to compile the entire movie.

The downside is, it’s good for a few chuckles but gets boring in few minutes. You probably wouldn’t want to revisit. Here’s an observation from its Funny Shorts section that will last for a long time:


The Seinfeld show became funnier as Kramer’s dark hair grew higher.
