Yes, humorous content deserves merit. For example, the movie "Airplane" is a silly farce; however it is one of the highest rated movies on Rotten Tomatoes. I give merit for a whole bunch of different reasons. You can check my recent merit history to see who else I merit. Apparently, theymos thinks I am doing an adequate job as a merit source since he is upped my monthly source merit twice since he granted it to me. Also, if I were in some sort of clandestine arrangement with Lauda, to give her merit, I'm doing a really bad job, since I'm only giving her a very small portion of all the merits that I give out.

Well, I'll show you the real reason behind your merit...

If I wasn't there and Lauda wasn't there, are you still giving that merit to Lauda? (If what you're saying) the answer is NO (Ask from your conscience). The point is... If you aren't Lauda himself nor his conferrer, you wanted to demonstrate your appreciation to Lauda due to the action he took against me (The red trust). That's why you merited him.

Anyway, there's another orientation as well to discuss this situation.

no healthy minded person wants to offer a merit at kind of hilarious and no sense reply

I gave Lauda a merit because it made me laugh out loud when I read the trust comment that she gave you

Nobody has yet merited Lauda, or at least mentioned here (until this reply message is published) they were made laugh out loud by Lauda's comment. Honestly, I just got little smile at his comment.

Means, it has happened something special for you...
