So, yeah... I'm pretty down right now (the classic wanting-a-girl-but-can't-get-her syndrome) and I need a good comedy to cheer me up.  Any semi-recent movie would be appreciated.

And no Will Ferrell, I've seen his very few good movies and he's just not funny anymore.

Gavin and Stacey is a UK thing but if you can find that on the BBC ebsite or any streaming sites it's well worth watching all episodes.  It isn't a film its a TV series and don't worry about the Karma (providing you thought this was a decent reply).

Im sure a USA tv channel has just bought the rights to it so it's coming your way soon (well in a year or so if they remake it)

Young Frankenstein,
The Blues Brothers,

If you aren't going to experiment, then forget people suggesting you good movies.

I thought that Juno was going to be crap and "girlish", but it wasn't. It was witty, funny and perfectly acted and shot.
Probably one of the most inspiring and original movies of the year. I have seen it 3 times it's so good.

No, I actually looked them up on imdb, read the storyline and some reviews and decided against them.

But thanks for assuming... you know what they say about assuming...

Wait, you read reviews on Juno? It got 93% on RottenTomatoes, won an Oscar and got perfect reviews from nearly every single critic, yet you "decided against it".

Where is my assuming? I had already assumed you had read the plot, like I had. But I still thought I should download and experiment, and I was pleasantly surprised.

Well done for misreading what I said, you sure you didn't misread the reviews as well?

If you want another suggestion for a comedy :
You Kill Me - Absolutely brilliant black humour.
or if you haven't seen it
Bad Santa
