Penny Arcade is not funny.
Dave Barry stopped being funny around the time Reagan left office.
Achewood is not funny.
The Onion was funny until they started repeating themselves sometime around `97.  They'll occasionally have a good zinger, but most of their stuff is telegraphed to hell and back.
Jerk City is not funny.
Sinfest is funny until you realize it's a adolescent ripoff of Bloom County with the main character being two-thirds Milo, one third (Watterson's) Calvin.
Something Positive is not funny.
David Letterman is funny only when compared to Jay Leno.
McSweeney's is not funny.

Robot Chicken is funny.

I've given RC several chances. After finding nothing funny in two episodes, the third ep I watched had about five funny minutes in it, with a ripoff of "Enter the Dragon" and "The Karate Kid". Then it just got numbingly boring again. The stop-motion animation is so jerky it's almost hard to watch and definitely hard to follow. Do I lack the chromosomes needed to find it funny?

It is... possible.
