There's two kinds of people in the world. Those who lean towards the sharp, erudite humor of them thar Marx brothers and those who lean towards the slapstick end of the spectrum represented by the 3 Stooges. Me...all I know is last night I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How it got in my pajamas I'll never know...

I love both. They were all amazing entertainers.

Not saying you can't love both. Just saying folks lean more towards one end of the spectrum than the other. I think it's legit impossible to love them both truly equally.

I’m on the Marx end of the spectrum. Love the Stooges, but the Marx Bros hit all my sweet spots for comedy.

I get insanely granular about it. I think the Marx Brothers have funnier material, but that the general pathos of the Stooges is funnier to behold.
