Humour ( Commonwealth English) or humor (American English) is the tendency of experiences to provoke laughter and provide amusement. The term derives from the humoral medicine of the ancient Greeks, which taught that the balance of fluids in the human body, known as humours ( Latin: ', "body fluid"), controlled human health and emotion. People of all ages and cultures respond to humour. Most people are able to experience humour—be amused, smile or laugh at something funny (such as a pun or joke)—and thus are considered to have a ''sense of humour''. The hypothetical person lacking a sense of humour would likely find the behaviour to be inexplicable, strange, or even irrational. Though ultimately decided by personal taste, the extent to which a person finds something humorous depends on a host of variables, including geographical location, culture, maturity, level of education, intelligence and context. For example, young children may favour slapstick such as Punch ...

Die Toten Hosen
Die Toten Hosen (literally "The Dead Trousers", figuratively "The Deadbeats") is a German punk rock band from Düsseldorf. History The current members of Die Toten Hosen are Campino (Andreas Frege), Kuddel (Andreas von Holst), Vom (Stephen Ritchie), Andi (Andreas Meurer) and Breiti (Michael Breitkopf). All members except one are German, though Campino's mother, Jenny, was English. The drummer Vom comes from England. He joined in 1999, after previous drummer Wölli sustained injuries in a car crash. Wölli had played from 1985 to 1999 and was an honorary member of the band until his death in 2016. The drummer until 1985 was Trini Trimpop, who became the band's manager when Wölli joined. The band is reputed to have played for free at private birthday parties or similar events in their early years, so long as the host provided them with unlimited beer and covered all damage caused by the band. 1982–1987 Die Toten Hosen formed in 1982 at the Ratinger Hof, a Düsseldorf b ...

Bayern (song)
"Bayern" (''Bavaria'') is a punk hymn by Die Toten Hosen. It's the third single and the sixteenth track from the album ''Unsterblich''. It is an anti-FC Bayern Munich song.

Nie im Leben würde ich zu Bayern gehen." (''Many things can happen. Many things can come to pass/One thing I know for sure. Never in my life would I go to Bayern.'' ere meaning the football club. Also Real Madrid and Manchester United are mentioned along with Uli Hoeneß, the former Sporting Director of Bayern Munich. The Tipp-Kick version is more anthem-like, as it features the line "Wir würden nie zum FC Bayern München gehen" (''We would never go to FC Bayern Munich'') throughout the song, not only in the end and the emphasis is taken off the I-character (the narrator). In 2012, Campino mentioned that Die Toten Hosen lost ...
