Also, the super-masculine Old Spice guy does video responses to comments on YouTube. I think it may be the funniest channel on the site.

Dark Jaguar and A Black Falcon will be totally confused by these, and end up typing out long posts about how they aren't funny. I think that makes them even more hilarious.

Does it make sense? No. Is it amusing anyway? ... Yeah, probably. They're so absurd they're kind of funny. :)

I've been subscribed to Old Spice's channel since that guys first video and I've been watching these things all day
Probably one of my favorites of the bunch:

ABF, I think you're finally starting to understand the nature of "absurdist humor". Another part of it is they're making fun of "manliness" by exaggerating it to ridiculous proportions. It's funny, with the only real distraction being the product they're advertising.
Weltall I AM absurd. I tend to laugh at absurd humor all the time. I'm not sure what you're talking about. SQUIRREL!

This isn't funny and makes no sense... on a horse.

Remember, it's ME here. You really think I don't enjoy random humor? I thought you knew Stevenopolis better than that.

I'm just going to say it, I wouldn't be sad if ABF died.

That was great. Grover is the best monster. Screw Elmo and his all-consuming HALF-HOUR of modern Sesame Street.
