I have just noticed, over the years I've seen X amount of anime productions, and throughout every single one, when a scene, line, or series is identified as "hilarious" I never remember laughing. God forbid an anime push comedy as it's defining feature, I will be bored 100% guaranteed.
I have a sense of humor damnit! stand-up comedy is my favorite form of entertainment, beyond music, movies, anime, reading, anything. I love reading funny books and seeing funny movies and like making my friends laugh.
Whats so different in comedy anime? It seems to just fall flat on me (oh, i GET it). Is it just a sign of different cultures? I remember in high school people quoting animes and guffawing their pants off, and there I sat with a blank face.
Anyone share my feelings? Or have an explanation? Or even find comedy animes funnier than the local flavor?

+1, Welcome to the NHK is pure awesomeness and a must watch anyway in my opinion.
You might also wanna check out Gintama, cause it's probably the anime that made me laugh the most.

Well, its partly true for me too. When labeled as a comedy anime (the very main genre), very few are actually consistently funny. I usually laugh/smile more when it's in the background and subtle.
Still, there are quite a number of animes with comedy as a main element that I found funny; like Nodame Cantabile, School Rumble, GTO, FMP Fumoffu, Yakitate!! Japan, Detroit Metal City. Even Golden Boy, NHK ni Youkoso!, Rocket Girls, Bamboo Blade (and for some reason I even thought Bokura ga Ita was funny!).
Though the number of animes, with comedy as a major component, that I don't like are many more. Maybe because all ecchianimes are actually comedies, and I dislike them :P.

I was hoping we could get to at least the second page before someone mentioned school days
