- It was like the punchline to a joke.
- Oh, is that what it was? - Yeah.
- The punchline to a joke. - Let me explain comedy to you.
♪ (upbeat intro) ♪
- (FBE) So, before we get started, let's talk about who
you have with us today. - I am here with my boyfriend Mike,
a.k.a. Husky on all of his social media handles.
- We met in high school. - Yeah, we met in high school
at a carnival. I didn't like you right away.
- We've been together for nine years.
- Almost nine years. - Yeah.
So yeah, we're a couple fiances.
- (FBE) So, we're going to be having the ultimate
couple battle today. - Ultimate couple battle?
- (FBE) You'll be playing against each other
in a Try Not to Laugh or Smile Challenge.
- Oh, I love it. Okay.
How do you think you'll do? - I think I'm gonna
kick your ass as per usual.
- I usually-- I would normally say,
"Bring it on" but I fail these every time.
- Yes. - By the first one.
- Yeah, good. - I'm very giggly.
- (FBE) So, there are some rules here.
If you smile or laugh at all after we start playing
the first video, all the way until the end of the challenge,
even between the videos, we'll be adding a point
to your score. - That is gonna be
really hard because if you laugh on the first one
then you're gonna laugh freely for the rest of them
and then you're gonna screw me over.
- Yeah.
- He always says I cheat, but I'm not cheating.
- Yes, you do.
(fart noises)
- I can't believe it. (buzzer)
(fart noises) (buzzer)
(fart noises) - Damn it.
- That's funny to you? - The ending, the ending.
(buzzer)
- (cameraman laughing) - Have you seen this?
We have to continue not to smile or laugh.
(buzzer)
- I'm not gonna do it. - I'm not laughing!
I'm not laughing!
- (cameraman laughing) - I recognized that
that was funny. I thought Becky would
actually like that. Sometimes she likes that,
sometimes she doesn't.
- It was like the punchline to a joke.
- Oh, was that what it was? - Yeah.
- It was a punchline to a joke. - Let me explain comedy to you.
- (baby yelling)
- I feel like this is me trying to sleep
and you trying to tell me all the T.
- (baby yelling) (buzzer)
(baby yelling) (buzzer)
(baby yelling) - That's not funny to you?
That is-- (buzzer)
- (baby yelling) - Those little cheeks.
(buzzer)
- (baby yelling) (buzzer)
- I feel so bad for the mom, though.
- Oh man, I've seen this one, too.
I think.
- (imitates turkey call) (turkeys gobbling)
(buzzer)
- That was amazing. What just happened?
I'll take the laugh. - Army of turkeys.
- I'll take the smile. - An army of turkeys.
- Is nobody else amazed at that?
(buzzer)
- (imitates turkey call) (turkeys gobbling)
- What is that? - Damn it.
(buzzer)
- (imitates turkey call) (turkeys gobbling)
(buzzer)
- (imitates turkey call) (turkeys gobbling)
- Oh my gosh, that was so cute.
- That did it. - That was so funny.
(buzzer)
- See, I've seen this video. - "I gobbled at the turkeys
and they--" - They're all gonna gobble.
- (turkeys gobbling)
- Okay, I was expecting that to be funnier than it was.
- Yeah. - It was funny.
- I did not expect the chorus, they symphony of sounds.
- That was really loud. I'm glad we eat turkeys.
- Is my laugh interrupting you?
- No.
- (boy crying)
- (little girl) Are you okay? - (little boy) Yeah, I'm fine.
(buzzer)
- "I'm fine." (buzzer)
- Oh. - Okay, don't get me with this.
(buzzer)
- I do love it when children are stuck in a toilet.
- (little boy) Yeah, I'm fine. - Yeah, I'm fine.
- Oh my God. - (little girl) Are you okay?
- (little boy) Yeah, I'm fine. (buzzer)
- (little girl) Are you okay? - (little boy) Yeah, I'm fine.
- Not gonna cry at another human's suffering.
(buzzer)
- It feels so good to not have responsibilities.
- Oh. - He was stuck in the toilet
and he's crying. - Oh my God.
- And you're laughing at him. - I am and I would
proudly laugh again. - He's still stuck in that toilet.
- No, no.
- (man screams)
(slowed down scream) (buzzer)
- (man screams) - That's just so messed up.
That's disgusting. - That's sad.
- (FBE) But somehow, you still managed to smile.
- I was hoping you didn't catch that.
- (FBE) Oh, I did. So we're going--
- You smiled at that? - I don't know why.
I don't know why. It's not funny.
It's actually really awful. - Now I'm gonna have to
stay awake at night. (buzzer)
- Oh girl, don't do that. - That is so mean.
- Oh my gosh. - That is so mean.
- (man screams)
(slowed down scream)
(man screams)
(slowed down scream)
- What is wrong with people? - That's the most evil woman
I've ever seen. - What is wrong with people?

in one second.

That was-- I was shook, didn't laugh.
- (FBE) So, the challenge is over and Mike won.
How do you feel? - Whoo!
I just have no sense of humor, so I had no idea
that these were supposed to be funny.
- I'm so impressed by that. - I feel so accomplished.
This is the only thing I've ever won.
- In this competition, the people who win
are the people having the least fun.
- I think I laugh more when I'm trying to suppress it
and I think that's what amplifies the comedy.
- You're like the church laughter. - Totally, yeah.
- When you're not supposed to laugh
- Oh, that's a really good-- the church laugher,
that's beautifully put.
- No matter how hard you try, you're gonna laugh.
- Yeah. - If it's a funny enough video.
- It's always fun to laugh. - That's the power of the internet.
- I wanted to make sure that I was able to get through it
and if it wasn't for the damn cat one,
I would have made it. - Yeah, it's real fun.
