That doesnt adequatly define humour. It is like saying a good footballer is someone who plays good football. It explains nothing. It only states the obvious. What I want to know is why is something funny. Is there an equation which is used in all aspects of humour to illicitate the behaviour of laughing. Why is the same joke told twice by the same person in the same way funny one time but not another? What criteria must be filled for us to percieve something as funny? Again. Define humour. As previously said "Humour is whats funny" is not an adequate definition.
