The Comedy Portal
Comedy is a communication system for people to make other people realize how stupid some things are. Be they stupid people, places or things. Comedy is usually expressed by Comedians which may be Canadians, individuals, teams or troupes. Animators and illustrators may also qualify as comedians, as their product serves the same purpose. Certainly, Propaganda, pornography and laundry detergent advertisements may be funny, and serve as de facto comedy, but they are not officially comedy.
Internet comedy, called Lulz, was initially just about cats and a few other cute animals. It was introduced in the 1950s, with dogs introduced within a year, after much demand in the UK. It also used the terrestrial internet through ground-based modems. Later, high speed via overhead and/or underground wiring and then 3G were introduced. More recently in the 21st century, lulz has increasingly moved from analog to digital technology. (Full article...)

Comedy is a constantly evolving creature. What was once funny in olden times may be met with blank stares and drooling today. This is because the human mind has become more sophisticated with every passing year, despite evidence to the contrary. Society has innovated, and as comedy is a significant part of any civilization, what humors society has innovated along with it.
Explored in this article are several of the most notable ways comedy has innovated over the years.
The pie-in-the face gag
- Old: Bob gets hit in the face with a cream pie.
- New: Bob gets hit in the face with a cream pie. Bob dies.
- What's changed: This is what is referred to as “dark comedy.”

Before he became this... |
Stephen Colbert is the greatest traitor in the history of comedy. Long before he became the unfunny political commentator and talk show stooge you love so dearly, Colbert shown brightly as one of humor’s greatest purveyors. Of course, you’re too young, brainwashed, and/or oblivious to know this, because the only reason you’ve ever heard of Stephen Colbert is his Daily Show spin-off. And because of that sad truth, not only are you a comically-devoid moron, but an unwitting supporter of comedic retrogradation. For this, you should be completely, utterly ashamed. I am completely, utterly serious.
Stephen Tyrone Colbert was born, grew up in South Carolina, and blah blah blah. None of that shit is important. I can't even believe you're still reading this as opposed to vandalizing the page in a display of ignorant hatred for the truths I'm displaying to your meager brain cells. Seriously, I'm eagerly awaiting your slack-jawed demonstration of retaliatory idiocy.
Oh. You're staying.…
