The funniest standup I’ve ever seen
I would say Bill Burr. He’s incredibly funny. I’m usually a really bad audience member when I watch standup as I start daydreaming, but with him I’m completely hooked the whole way through.
The funniest sketch I’ve ever seen
Chappelle’s Show’s Rick James sketch is a classic. That whole series is full of great ones.
The funniest TV show I’ve ever seen
Da Ali G Show. I’m talking food falling out of my mouth, not being able to eat my dinner funny.
The funniest film I’ve ever seen
The Naked Gun because it’s the first comedy I ever recall seeing. I watched it again not long ago and found that my judgment had been pretty accurate back in the day. It’s still super funny, and Leslie Nielsen was such a good clown.
The funniest person I know
My friends back home in Norway are hilarious. They have a great sense of humour.
The funniest item of clothing I’ve ever owned
I would say a bow tie. It’s a strange piece of clothing and I always feel out of my comfort zone when I have to wear it.
The funniest meal I’ve ever eaten
Once when I was super drunk I fell asleep in bed with a slice of pizza in my mouth. I woke up eight hours later with the TV on loud and the whole slice still in my mouth. It was nice as it meant that breakfast was already ready!
The funniest dream I’ve ever had
The other day I dreamed I was in a jungle and all the animals were wearing boxer shorts. I don’t know why I seem more comfortable with animals wearing underwear in my dreams.
The funniest thing that shouldn’t be funny
The names of German sausages.
The funniest word
Jagdwurst – it’s a type of German sausage
