The Importance of Being Earnest is a comedy of manners, mostly because it pokes fun at the society it was written for.
It's not a "laugh like a moron" type of play, it's a "giggle because you get what Oscar Wilde was actually trying to say" kind of play -_- . And people would do well in actually remembering that once in awhile.
It's a real giggle-worthy play when you honestly understand and pay attention to what's going on instead of taking 15 different breaks just to explain something to a group of people that aren't even really paying attention to anything, in the end. :)
