Laughing Space: Anthology of Science Fiction Humour di Isaac Asimov and J. O. Jeppson

You may find this to be better than 3... But I'm afraid this classic has become a little bit dated. The cartoons are, as intended, timeless, but the style of the stories is what I think the modern world would have a hard time identifying with.
If you are OVER 50, read for sure!
