I was expecting something a little less dumb.
These guys are so dumb they don't know how shoes work.
They're so dumb they wouldn't be able to function at all in society, yet here they are.
It's just forced and not funny.
Other likewise shows that come to mind are Mr. Bean and Bottom.
That's just not my cuppa British humour.
The reason this funeral scene is funny is because it could happen to a normal, yet slightly socially awkward person.

Well, there ya go. We've all seen the socially awkward guys working in this field, and some of us can totally relate to some of the situations they get themselves in.
Now take their ineptitude and turn it all the way to 11. You just have to go with it.
I also understand not appreciating Mr. Bean. If you can't take it for what it is, then people should just leave it be and not force it on anyone. Humo[u]r is subjective. There's plenty I despise.

When it was funny, it was hilarious (e.g. the Jen and the Internet thing), but it didn't hit high points often enough.

Sander please do NOT take @kmoorevs advice and tell jokes in your presentation, listen to CWs advice, relax and talk like you are discussing it with a friend who is interested in your info. The people attending will be interested in your knowledge, not your sense of humour.

Yeah, humor can be effective, but tricky...
Someone else gave me that advice too and my reply was "cool, I'll prepare my best dead baby joke!"
That kind of humor is probably the worst way to start out a presentation

I'm talking about this[^]. It's 51% off for another 90 minutes at the same site I've referenced before (the Admins don't like me referencing it though) and I'm tempted but want to know if anyone has used it and thinks it's shite. Version 3 recently released.

Why pay for a command-line that's already there? What does it add that is worth $30?

Might as well make it permanent for all the effect it is having. Just think of the savings over the wage bill!

Anyone affected by the Government shutdown?
Me, it's making me sick watching a bunch of elected officials acting like children!

That's to be expected if you elect a child

Luckily DoD has funding, so no. Every other one in the last 10 years though >.>
I feel terrible for the people who aren't getting paid. For those that are pulling the whole "clearly they aren't doing anything on the regular" bit, quite a number of people are still working, and contractually obligated to work, but will not be paid for it until a budget agreement is reached. It sucks.
