My wife can't stand him. Then again, she doesn't know why I watch the 3 Stooges either.
The Stooges is a man thing. I have only meet woman who "tolerate" the Stooges.
My mom had a great sense of humor, it was just she saw nothing funny about slapping the old guy on the head, chasing women around in fast motion, etc...
Women tend to have a flawed sense of humor.
