**Sample Comed ** media type="youtube" key="SXn2QVipK2o" width="425" height="350" I picked this video because I thought it was funny when he went to pet the dog the dog bite him. media type="youtube" key="wru7XVriBdQ" width="425" height="350"I picked this video because the tabacco went all over the guy"s face. **Personal Reflection **  I do not really have a preference in comedy. I just like any kind of comedy. I really like slapstick comedy where there is some type of physical accident. I find Mr Bean movies very funny because of all the things that he does and the things that happen to him.  **Personal Humour **

The other day another student asked if I had mints and I said "NO!" Then Aaron and I were sneaking mints into our mouths and he did not notice. This went on for most of the class. He only noticed at the end of class that we actually had mints lol.
