Wait you want Yorick to stop ranting but you're baiting him into flaming you openly? that's a bit of a mixed message.

As for humerous, it's not a word. Humorous is a word and in every definition for the word I've ever encountered funny is included, not as a possibility but as a confirmed correlation.

hu·mor·ous
/ˈhyumərəs or, often, ˈyu-/
[hyoo-mer-uhs or, often, yoo-]
–adjective
1. characterized by humor; funny; comical: a humorous anecdote.
2. having or showing the faculty of humor; droll; facetious: a humorous person.

That's not intended as an attack of any sort, merely a clarification on the meaning and spelling of the word being disputed.
