It's light hearted, but that's not the same as funny. I think the main reason it's not funny to me is that humour generally needs an element of surprise, the unexpected. These jokes don't do that for me, they're trite.

As for what's funny to me, my occasional posts in the spam and meme threads should give you an idea but if I come across a good example I'll post it here

Actually, here is one (although not mine):

where is the surprise?..ducks fly no surprise ok gate damaged, so that's the joke... had ducks in the UK and had to clipped their wings, as they were not bought up in the wild, so pets, special pets, although when they bred one of our chickens sat for the duration of, to hatching then we took over....

Jokes to me are so varied..take the UK CarryOn films..loads and loads of them, funny to me as is the late Kenny Everett....when you can laugh at yourself though your a winner....that's is not so easy really.

Think Marvel Universe + Angry Duck.

The scarecrow/litter one I wouldn't label a joke if it was multiple choice.
Much more satire imo.

This is funny.
