While I'm impressed by the quality of the work (very Monty Python-ish in
some ways), after about the first 1/4 of it, I found some of the rest of the
clips more disturbing than funny (like the baby sneezing its guts out and
then sucking them back in, just to mention one thing among several). Guess
some people laugh at one thing (like the Three Stooges) and others (like me)
just wince at the same.

Here are two claymation videos by a homeschooler/unschooler (who later went
to film school) which I found funny a while back (despite, or perhaps
because of, some violent and perhaps sacrilegious scenes etc. in them,
though as a part of a narrative):

Just shows what kids can accomplish when they get a chance to have time to
pursue their passions and some access to the tools and materials they need.

Yeah---different strokes and all, but I'm more likely to find poking
fun at a particular person or group of people more offensive and
disturbing.

Cute animation though!
