two from CrackerMilk

Aussie comedy troupe CrackerMilk has two videos I found funny. One is of the your mileage may vary variety since it involves 9/11 humor.

9/11 humor in 3... 2... 1...

The classic line (said by multiple sources) is Comedy equals tragedy plus time. As an American, I obviously see 9/11 as a national tragedy, but one way of dealing with tragedy is through humor, and I can understand how one person's national tragedy might not resonate with a foreigner at all. Twenty years have passed—a whole generation—so I think even Americans can tolerate a spot of humor about the event. 

Or maybe not. As I said, your mileage may vary.
