"Lay off" WAS necessary, as I felt I was being attacked! Second of all, how it "cutting" to ask somebody what their idea of humor is? I'm not ashamed of the things I find to be funny- and I NEVER said I couldn't appreciate some of these guys' work (read nearly every posting I've left on here, including the first). Read what I write before you start freaking out that I 'dissed' your beloved "who's on first" sketch.

I wasn't trying to be a defense attorney, and I don't believe the expression "LAY OFF" was necessary. I was simply pointing out the era in which the routine was created and how it represents the way people think even today. If I wanted to be cutting, I could have asked what your idea of humor was and taken off from there. There are plenty of people and routines I don't find funny either, and people say the same thing to me I said to you. I don't always like Laurel and Hardy, and people disagree.

That's ok, I knew there'd be a few of you out there would be intolerant of someone disliking something that you like and voicing their feelings. I said right off the bat that I expected it. It's ok.

Look, in my initial comment, I DID give some credit to wit. However, in MY opinion and in MY taste in humor, I'm not a fan. It is OK for me to say that. Lay off, you're not Abbot & Costello's defense attorney.

You're entitled to your opinion, but you have to remember Abbott had a very difficult job, being the straight guy. He was considered the best straight man in Hollywood. These guys were timeless and hysterical!

I can watch this 15,000 times, and it's NEVER irritating! These guys are timeless! I showed this to my seventh grade students and had them paraphrase because that was the lesson of the week, and the kids were roaring with laughter!
