I only use the funny button for reviews I find funny. Everyone is aware of its misuse and personally when I see a funny vote on a serious subject I wrote...so what. I have survived trolls in the past and will again...however, I know there are a couple of nice people on this site who's feelings have been hurt by the funny votes on serious subjects. That bothers me a little because their feelings should be taken into consideration. With the comment feature I can disagree with someone if I feel they are needing to explain their point better....honestly most I disagree with, I ignore.
