Well, in books they would be categorized simply as
humorous...but thanks to the magic of glamour era filmmakers such as Howard Hawks and Preston Sturges, respectively, they are called
screwball comedies. These two especially rife with a thinly veiled banter representative of the battle of the sexes, intriguingly tinged with sexual teasing and innuendo - brilliant! And both sides wage very admirable campaigns. I recommend them both very highly.
Ball of Fire and
Sullivan's Travels are two other sterling examples in this vein of filmmaking.

Not much to say at this point. History happens fast these days.

drop those nasty-ass collards out, and now we're talking. i might argue grease is also effectively deployed in chili-cheeseburgers and what-have-thee, but the corn bread is making my mouth water. i mean, you just had to throw that in, didn't you? fie on you woman!!! as far as it not getting into the cream of wheat - i'm crying a little, on the inside, about the travesty of the situation. but i guess you can't win 'em all...

Nasty-ass collards? Well, I never...
Well, yes, actually I have heard that before. But fuck ya'll. Collards rock!
