Also, I woke up to a flooded basement this morning so I am NOT in the mood to do computer stand-up for you. I am mad at you right now because your basement is not flooded.
Instead, here is my Taxonomy of Comedy.
Taxonomies are a nerdy teacher thing; you make them as a way to brainstorm ideas. Here I've made a taxonomy of funny stuff I like. It's an odd list because I was limited to one entry per letter. So, I don't follow Queen Latifah's comedy career too closely, but she has been funny on SNL and her name starts with a Q. X was also a bit of a reach. Check it out, then go off and make a taxonomy of your own. You can pick any subject. Once my husband and I made a taxonomy of baby names. It was really cool and not lame.
