Okay, so the Sleepaway Camp movies, or at least the first one, sound scary. But this entry from the main page...
I liked it better when Questionable Casting was called WTH Casting Agency
I always get a chuckle and a smile from the entry that says Louie from The Princess And The Frog isn't a "Himself Moment". :)
I like to keep my audience riveted.Most of the Playing With entries.

I think you mean entries. Either that or spell-check ballsed things up.
Thank you.
The payoff to this entry on Casino Royale:
I can't catch lasers with my telekinesis!
I thought it was psychokinesis.
Insert witty and clever quip here. My page, as the database hates my handle.Several entries on Cruel Twist Ending are rather amusing, particularly the ones that describe silly B-movies which added a random downer ending just for the sake of having one.
It's probably mean-spirited to laugh at this, but North Korea is one of my favorite pages on the wiki for its gold entries. For example:
Examples of a Deadly Euphemism
- "Brief shortages": Years of Holodomor-level famine.
- "Violating military discipline": We have nothing on you but you are going down anyway.
- "Technical difficulties": Nothing works.
Examples of Blatant Lies
- Their railway system is entirely electrified, apart from the bits that aren't. That is to say, all of it.
- In 2010, the Norks claimed that Kim Jong-Il had set off a worldwide fashion trend with his "distinctive" clothing style. In case the lie isn't obvious, just ask yourself: how many people have you seen walking around in grey or khaki colored Mao suits with oversized sunglasses?
- This incident is particularly egregious, considering two things. Firstly, the context in which this happened-South Korea discovered a tunnel leading under the border into their country from the north-leading North Korea to declare that the tunnel was absolutely not a route to invade South Korea and was totally a legitimate coal mine. Secondly, North Korea is a coal-producing nation, so not only should they know better than to think anybody at all would fall for this, but they had access to actual coal that they could have, at the very least, planted in the cave.
(after an entry details the American rescue of some North Korean sailors)
Plus the snark written near "Our Presidents Are Different"
And this only troper-written material that I laughed at, not all the trivia on that page about what's actually going on in North Korea. I'd have to list the whole page if I counted those.
...@ that technical difficulties bit.
And if I claim to be a wise man, well, it surely means that I don't know.The page for Haze also made me chuckle a few times, mostly because every single trope on the main page has a passive aggressive insult towards the game. Some highlights:

From Beam Me Up, Scotty!:
- Famous lines never said by Winston Churchill:
- "Don't talk to me about naval tradition. The only traditions of the Royal Navy are rum, sodomy and the lash."; his personal secretary, Anthony Montague-Browne, said that although Churchill did not say this, he wished he had. (Note that the British Navy abolished the practice of flogging in 1948, and that rum rations were discontinued in 1970. The modern navy runs on sodomy, and sodomy alone.)

From Anachronism Stew
- Samurai Shodown is a clearinghouse of this. The games are set in 1788-1811, yet Texas and San Francisco are part of the United States, Amakusa Shiro (1621-1638) and Hattori Hanzo (1542-1596) are both alive, Prussia is a feudal kingdom with castles, armored knights, and an Arthurian king, the White House has its modern appearance, and there are robots.
- One of the ninja characters is a blonde-haired blue-eyed American surfer from California. This does not gel with the stated year of the game in several respects.
- One of the other characters marries Queen Victoria, who wasn't even born until 1819.
- It would be easier to list the things that aren't anachronistic in Soul Calibur's version of the 16th century.
- Let's see: there's no electricity or telephones, aaannnnd... we're done.

The Scunthorpe Problem page in general is a funny read, but this example (talking about Fark's autofiltering) made me literally chortle (emphasis mine):
