Do you remember the great Python skit...

that may have only been on the LP (!) of the soundtrack to Holy Grail, where a professor of logic gets all flustered because his wife, when told that "all mackerel are fish, and that all fish live in water, deduces not that all mackerel live in water, but that fish live in trees, or that I do not love her any more..."

There is the basic issue of common sense, which can indeed provide great humor when it is uncommonly nonsensical; there is the issue of the egregious logical gaffes, which are often hysterical; and there is the issue of reading incomprehension, which is more sad than funny, unless combined with the previous two, in which case we're talking hernia-inducing milk-out-the-nose belly laughter.
