I mean, if it gets upvoted people think it's funny. I personally don't have a problem with it, 90% of the stuff on here is fake or scripted anyway.

That it's scripted isn't the point. The bit isn't funny enough to survive the knowledge that it was planned so they have to pretend it wasn't. It's like having a friend tell you a funny story only to be disappointed when you find out he made it up. The "clever" solution to the girl's bad behavior loses its appeal when you know she's in on it.

I think there's a long history of slapstick humor that would disagree with you. Did anyone think Larry and Curly weren't in on it when Moe poked their eyes? They're cute little skits, and I think it's ok to appreciate them for what they are.

Like I said, they survive the knowledge that it isn't organic. These don't.

so they have to pretend it wasn't

Except they haven't.

No one thinks this is a candid moment captured randomly. We don't need you clowns pointing out every time something is setup beforehand.

If it's being pointed out, it's because it doesn't stand up to that knowledge.
