Stupid People Doing Stupid Things (SPDST)
Anime
Tired of the Slice of Life genre being filled to the brim with these boring ass moe girl shows that don't DARE to go above and beyond with their comedy? Here's a list "curated" (thrown together haphazardly) by me of some goofy ass stuff that will make you laugh if you have the same wack ass sense of humour that I do.
Will continuously update as I find more that fits the "genre". Note that this doesn't encompass all slapstick and/or situational comedy, just stuff that has characters with half a brain. In a funny way.

The quintessential stupid slapstick humour anime. He punches the banana girl and suffers.

Aho Girl is like the spiritual successor to this lesser known anime. You like one of them, you'll like the other.

Everyone is stupid as hell, but the fact that the "worldbuilding" goes along with it and reaches further into hysterics really helps.

A little more grounded than most stuff on this list, but it's got like 2 Boke characters and Osaker's basically like she's high on some good ass weed the entire show. Probably the least dumb I'm willing to go when it comes to this stack.

This girl's brain is horny as hell. Amazing voice acting. Show's trashy, but what did you expect? Go have fun with it.

It's Konosuba. It needs no introduction. I don't need to add the other seasons either; if you like this, you know where to find more.

Excels in its deadpan delivery and situational comedy. Low budget excellence.

One of my favourites. Takes an episode or two for the humour to pick up, but when it does, it's a rollercoaster.

A possibly controversial pick. The best "so bad it's good" anime that I know of, self aware or not. Everyone is an idiot dialed up to 11.

Kana Minami embodies pretty much everything I want from these female-centric slice of life shows that seem to have become so popular. More like this, less like New Game, Bocchi the Rock!, Yuru Yuri, etc.

Dumb squid girl initiates the worst invasion ever while being stalked by someone equally stupid. This one's fun.

The anime hasn't aired yet, but the manga is absolutely hilarious. Masterful juxtaposition used between visuals, dialogue, and viewer expectations. I'd highly recommend this even if the anime ends up half as good as the manga.
Update: it's out! My first impressions are that it adapts the humour to an animated form pretty smoothly.
