There was nothing subtle about this, thank you very much.  We understood what was supposed to be funny: but feel free to watch and laugh at e.g. frozen nose dribble. 

It's true tho, a lot of people just don't get certain kinds of humor. Runny noses can be funny, no doubts about that.
Action is the only truth

Is there a rule that nobody under 50 will be seen at a movie theater these days?   8)

While we have not seen much this past year, we have noticed that most of the audience - and in some cases the entire audience - qualified for Social Security.  This includes the cartoon movie Inside Out

To be sure, we have not seen things like Fast and Furious VII, but I have noticed that most of the people milling around the "multiplex" are middle aged.  And this observation started some years ago.  My sons - in their 30's - basically refuse to go to theaters, and prefer to wait for the TV release.  I know some of you here at GMG are of the same opinion.
