No, its totally normal to find Nietzsche funny. He was one of the best people at not taking his own stuff too seriously and laughing about even the most serious topics. His stuff is really filled with a lot of humor, and he loves to just play with language.
Anyone who doesn't see the humor in Nietzsche doesn't completely understand Nietzsche. Some of his stuff, like in Thus Spoke Zarathustra, is really a mock-epic, which comes off as really serious, but if you take a step back is laughable sometimes.
But that really is part of Nietzsche's genius. Nietzsche is the ultimate synthesizer. He is able to combine even the most disparate elements of metaphysics and human nature into a cohesive and inspiring vision. And not only the serious aspects of those things either, but their comedic aspects as well.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
