Bad Spider-Man

Perhaps I should post the list of everything that is funny to me so that I can always have a website to refer to it.
Yes.
Yes. I think I will do that.
But first,
I'm glad that I do things because they will make only me laugh. I'm delighted that other people might eventually find them and see them and also enjoy these things, but my initial rational is to make something I like because I like it. Sometimes I forget to do this. And in making things for a process class it's good to do this. Here is a minor example:



These last two are a little bit sad, however. The thing is, I really honestly do feel unloved sometimes. I become aware of this and some unconscious force that is attracted to laughing at sadness triggers a response like this one. Why would I make fun of myself to myself? I guess it's like an insincere cry for help. I suppose I make these things for myself and the immediately want to give them to someone else. I can't tell if this is ego-maniacal or if it is complete selflessness.

Anyhow... here's everything that is funny to me... I will follow this up in my next post with every place that is funny to me.
