@Anduin and @CrevsDaak I live just off Slag Lane (voted one of the 10 rudest street names in the UK). I used to smile seeing the women tottering to the local pub on Slag Lane (emphasis on the word Slag!) in their skimpy imitation silk cocktail dresses, fishnets and stillettos in the snow, but eventually it was just too damn sad!
I remember when I was little. My parents once took everything except my bed out of my room (I was a bad kid). So, I pulled out some little erasers that were in with my school supplies and played with them instead. I didn't need toys, only my imagination.

At uni I lived a hundred yards or so from Crotch Crescent, in a town that also has the delightfully named "St. Helen's Passage"... Many a student has visited that thoroughfare!
Not as amusing as those names, but there is a little street in my city called Catfish Alley that bemuses me.
Also, just about anything made of metal, doesn't have to be shiny. Not so much amusing as just... appealing aesthetically. Specifically, I am always strangely pleased with myself whenever I find a coin on the ground, even if it is just a penny facing the "wrong" way up.
My future wife and I live about an hour and a half away from eachother now (:/) but we spend most nights (probably 4/5) together on skype as she sleeps. Since I am usually up later I stay with her for a bit. It always makes me smile... most of the time because she looks great, but the best is when she has her mouth open and her face is in a weird position. Its good for a laugh, and if I take a screenshot I can pretend to blackmail by threatening to upload those hilarious photos onto the Facebook XD
Sending my boyfriend a facebook message when we're sitting right next to each other on the couch.
(I shall neither admit nor deny that I may have just done this a moment ago and giggled when the boyfriend turned his sarcastically glaring eyes on me.)
This misheard quotes topic could probably fill a thread all on its own... Hmm...
I am not entirely sure why, but I find the mannerisms and antics of the Tasmanian Devil (from what I remember) to be very funny. It is too bad I didn't get to see many of the Loony Toons... By the time I got to the age where I could begin to understand them on a more sophisticated level; the Loony Toons were all but extinct.

"Hey kid! Imma computer, stop all the downloading!"
or
"Give him the stick. NO!! Don't give him the stick!"
and lastly
"Porkchop Sandwiches!!"
I used to laugh at these real hard when I was 14, now I'm 24 and I still almost tear up from laughing.
*Anduin floats on by*
Welding always makes life better too. Unless you get bad arc blow.
(it wasn't pretty)

Also, I'm surprised this hasn't come up yet: newtons cradles. I can stare at those for hours.

She often awakes with a handrawn moustache below her pretty little nose... It is too hard to resist...

Hmm… I’ve wondered why your so often missing body parts. Now I know.

* Playing "I recognise that place! I've been there!" when watching any of the Tolkien/Jackson movies.
