What's the verdict on them? Funny, or just lame?
Depends. If there are props -- not funny. If the prat is English -- funny. Otherwise (or in intersecting cases), we need to evaluate individually.
So there is something I can do, besides scream like a woman?

Spike's Bitches 27: I'm Embarrassed for Our Kind.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
For example, I am cleaning the house and my tiara falls off. I slip on it, fall to the floor, beaning myself in the head with the vacuum hose, which then clogs with my hair and explodes all over myself and the dog.
Fuuny or lame?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Fuuny or lame?
Is the dog wearing a sweater?

You need an accent to pull that one off properly. But the dog really tips it in your favour.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Fuuny or lame?
Was the vacuum bag full at the time? Also, does the dog end up wearing the tiara at a cutely off-kilter angle?

Bag full, dog ends up with tiara on his butt.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
With YOUR dog Aimee?
Always funny.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
What about pratfalls? What's the verdict on them? Funny, or just lame?
Depends -- is it happening to me, or to someone eles?

move out and draw fire
The "boys will be boys" line is something of a jaw-dropper. I guess the principal will be okay with it when Sparky's nephew or another boy takes a tw-by-four or worse weapon upside the bully's head?
And, as a veteran of innumerable girlfights in junior high, I deplore the gender-biased double standard.
(That was humor, in case our definition needed another data point. Maybe not good humor, but then that's ice cream.)
