Might I suggest a few more funny things to our conservative friends?

The Punic Wars: critics agreed this was the funniest work to date, though some later critics say the ending is a bit salty.

The Holy Land Crusades: a classic whose comedic influence can still be felt today

The Albigensian Crusade: Christian religious humor so gut splitting you'll want to see it again and again. And again. And again.

The Mongol Invasion: After all these years, still listed in the top three. Not to be confused with the later British Invasion, though it did include a chorus of about 40 million souls belting out "Help! I need somebody..."

From the Conqistadors to the Cowboys and Beyond: A long running sitcom still in production. If your friends don't want to watch with you, a pox on them!

The Atlantic Slave Trade: It'll leave you on the floor screaming with glee.

Franz Ferdinand's "Vacation In Sarajevo": No worries: something this giggly can't be a one shot deal. The jokes keep on rolling in the sequel. Don't miss the director's cut, which includes scenes from the 1918 flu epidemic.

The Armenian genocide: You've been starving to be exposed to humor like this.

And last but not least, the funniest thing in human history. The comedy troupe's humor perfectly parallels contemporary American right wing humor. I'm not supposed to tell you who they are. But for excerpts from one of their books, check this out.
