Hive King 2,001 June 12, 2014 Share June 12, 2014 One of the most common jokes in media is the crotch shot(usually on a man). Why is this so funny to us? 1 "Aren’t we the same?

Admiral Regulus 2,769 June 12, 2014 Share June 12, 2014 (edited) HAHHAHAHahaaahaa he got hit in the ballsies. It's because we're sadistic creatures who like to watch people in serious pain. It's hilarious. Edited June 12, 2014 by Regulus 3 Tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainblow H. Ash 5,091 June 12, 2014 Share June 12, 2014 I personally don't find them funny. But I think that they're very effective at disabling your opponent. Android 13 knows this and exploited that. Either way, if other people find them funny fine, but I hope people don't think it's fine to actually do that unless a dude's attacking you or something. It can seriously mess up a man. #bringbackmerriwetherwillaims Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyDream 315 June 12, 2014 Share June 12, 2014 I'd be more interested in going for a kidney shot, because at least then they would know I mean business, rather than walking away with a Joker laugh. That could mean absolutely anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dattebayo 2,850 June 12, 2014 Share June 12, 2014 I don't know, and it almost causes me physical pain to watch, but it's always good for getting a cheap laugh out of me when someone gets punched in the d*ck. ^Click for my Deviant Art^ You truly are the Rosa Parks of not understanding what r34 is.

True Rarity 1,240 June 12, 2014 Share June 12, 2014 I've been asking that same question for a long time now. I don't think it's funny; it's serious. The worst part is that they're mostly in children's movies now. Not a good influence. 1 My deviantART Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostgage 7,975 June 12, 2014 Share June 12, 2014 I've experienced them a few times... it's not fun. Even the smallest amount of contact can be very painful.

Commander Bubbles 1,343 June 12, 2014 Share June 12, 2014 Because it hurts like a bitch, and humans tend to find humor at the expense of others. Gotta learn stuff through denial and error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M'aiq the Liar 5,804 June 12, 2014 Share June 12, 2014 Well we laugh at others pain as a coping and defense mechanism, and since ball shots often result in a sever form of pain, many people find it funny. People also often find the groin as a "forbidden" area, so a punch to the " no no square can be found funny. http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/vera-yeoman-r5921Muh pleb tier OC .http://mlpforums.com/blog/1663/entry-12477-pony-waifu-wedding-13-maiq-x-fleetfoot/ MLP forum's #1 Fleetfoot fan also married to fleetfoot <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Nobody- 519 June 12, 2014 Share June 12, 2014 I don't know why media finds it so funny. Most people I've talked to don't find it funny at all. I'm just nobody at all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParsoOfEquestria 1,490 June 12, 2014 Share June 12, 2014 I don't know, to be honest, its painful as all hell. but I guess in cartoons/TV shows its funny Add me on Steam | Youtube Channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziggy + Angel + Rain 11,302 June 12, 2014 Share June 12, 2014 When last I watched it, "America's Funniest Home Videos" was roughly, I'll say... 65% unexpected crotch shots. Or fairly well-staged crotch shots. I do not find them overly funny in general - the real ones, anyhow. And pretend ones have been done to death. The appeal, I assume, would lie in its sometimes slapstick quality (often accompanied by a funny sound effect). D'ooooOOoooh, that happened! *Pie to the crotch.* I mean face. Did the Three Stooges ever resort to a crotch shot? I don't think so. They respected each other enough AS MEN to only perform face slaps, eye pokes, and to bludgeon each other with objects that would - at the very least - result in a concussion.

Theshadowmaster235 70 June 12, 2014 Share June 12, 2014 I don't really know why people find it funny I myself usually find it funny, I guess a lot people love watching others be in pain and trust me it does hurt like hell but like I said before I find it funny usually as long 1. I'm not the one being hit and 2. It's not something that's being overdone like for example if it happens in every episode of a tv show its not funny also I only find it funny on tv since I know how much it hurts irl.

Banul 3,831 June 12, 2014 Share June 12, 2014 Nut shots are in the same group as fart jokes. Body humor appeals to a certain demographic, I guess. I thought they were the height of comedy when I was a kid, and now I think they're dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugar & Sins 156 June 24, 2014 Share June 24, 2014 It's just that it's funny to see someone in pain when It isn't a serious injury, especially in the UK, we just laugh at EVERYONE'S misfortune. The worst part about being strong is that no one ever asks if you're ok... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
